Answer:
The answer is 2i on right hand side.
Explanation:
We should star by checking the equation from right.
First we check how many Zn r there in left hand side. Which is 1. Let us check how many Znr there in right hand side, there is 1.So Zn is balanced, and don't worry about Znplus2 on right hand side it is just the ions not how many zinc r there.
Now let us check how many I are there left hand side. Which is 2. Now how many I are there in right hand side? Only 1.
So we put 2 behind I.
Now there r 2 I on both sides.
Its simple actually.
Because there is only one stable ionic compound made up of potassium and chlorine, and that is KCl. So calling is "mono chloride" or similar would be redundant assuming you understand basic chemistry (i.e. knowing oxidation numbers of K is +1 and Cl is -1). When compounds can exist in multiple forms in nature like CO and CO2 you will preferably indicate it through the nomenclature, calling one a monoxide and the other a dioxide.
Lets take a moment to list all the characteristics of the group 18 (also known as noble gases and/or group 8) elements:
- They have 8 valence electrons.
- Don't need ANY more electrons because their octet is full (stable).
- Are stable
- Not reactive
- Known as the noble gases
Now.. lets take some time to think about why elements want to form ions:
Elements form ions to either gain or lose valence electrons to the element they bond with. This helps them GAIN a full octet. What is a full octet, you may ask? An octet is when an element has all 8 valence electrons and is stable, making it nonreactive.
Why would an element with a full octet want to bond? It already has a full octet, it does not need to bond.
That, my fellow Brainly user, is why the noble gases do not need to bond.
I really do hope this helps! Enjoy, and good luck on the studies.

Answer:
b it increases from left to right of the group and it decreases down the period.
