Since Group 2 alkali earth metals have 2 valence electrons, they tend to lose those 2 when forming ionic bonds. And the Loss of Electrons = Oxidation (L.E.O. for short). Therefore this group, including Mg and Ca, have an oxidation of [+2].
So the correct answer is C) +2

5. If 1 g of a gas occupies a volume of 300 mL at STP, what is the molecular weight of the gas?
ikadub [295]

Answer:

74,67 gr/mol

Explanation:

At STP 1 mole of an ideal gas has volume of 22,4 L. Since we know the volume of the gas we can find the number of moles of the gas. (300 mL=0,3 L)

n=0,3L/22,4 L=0,01339 mol

Since we know weight of the gas as 1 g, we can find the molecular weight as;

MW=1 g/0,01339 mol =74,67 gr/mol
