The answer is going to be d
Answer:
E²⁺
Explanation:
The group two contain alkaline earth metals.
There are six elements in group 2A.
Beryllium, Magnesium, calcium, strontium, barium and radium.
All members have two valance electrons.
They lose two valance electrons to complete the octet.
When they lose the two valance electrons they form cation X²⁺.
They react with halogens and form salt such as
MgCl₂, CaCl₂ etc.
Mg²⁺ Cl²⁻₂
The oxidation state of halogens are -1, while the elements of group two A shows +2 that's why two atoms of halogen are combine with one atom of alkaline earth metals and make the compound overall neutral.
All the alkaline earth metals have similar properties.
Flerovium at its ground state is solid. It has electron configuration of [Rn]5f¹⁴6d¹⁰7s²7p². The expected number of valence electrons in a flerovium atom is 2. A ground state is the most stable state of an atom at satndard temperature and pressure.
