Answer:
1. The electronic configuration of X is: 1s2 2s2 sp6 3s2
2. The configuration of the anion of Y (i.e Y^2-) is 1s2 2s2 2p6
3. The formula of the compound form by X and Y is given as: XY
Explanation:
For X to loss two electrons, it means X is a group 2 element. X can be any element in group 2. The electronic configuration of X is:
1s2 2s2 sp6 3s2
To get the electronic configuration of the anion of element Y, let us find the configuration of element Y. This is done as follows:
Y receives two electrons from X to complete its octet. Therefore Y is a group 6 element. The electronic configuration of Y is given below
1s2 2s2 2p4
The configuration of the anion of Y (i.e Y^2-) is 1s2 2s2 2p6
The formula of the compound form by X and Y is given below :
X^2+ + Y^2- —> XY
Their valency will cancel out thus forming XY
The answer is 0.59 M.
Molar mass (Mr) of MgCl₂ is the sum of the molar masses of its elements.
So, from the periodic table:
Mr(Mg) = 24.3 g/l
Mr(Cl) = 35.45 g/l
Mr(MgCl₂) = Mr(Mg) + 2Mr(Cl) = 24.3 + 2 · 35.45 = 24.3 + 70.9 = 95.2 g/l
So, 1 mol has 95.2 g/l.
Our solution contains 55.8g in 1 l of solution, which is 55.8 g/l
Now, we need to make a proportion:
1 mole has 95.2 g/l, how much moles will have 55.8 g/l:
1 M : 95.2 g/l = x : 55.8 g/l
x = 1 M · 55.8 g/l ÷ 95.2 g/l ≈ 0.59 M
When a single compound breaks down into two or more compounds or elements in a chemical reaction then it is known as decomposition reaction.
The chemical symbol for sodium carbonate is
.
The decomposition of sodium carbonate is:

The decomposition of sodium bicarbonate,
will result in the formation of sodium oxide,
and carbon dioxide,
.
Hence, carbon dioxide,
will produce with sodium oxide,
on decomposition of

An element is a pure substance made up of only one kind of atom. An element is composed of atoms in which it is composed of neutrons and protons. The nucleus is surrounded by electrons. The answer to this problem is A. element
Answer:
0.97 kg, 1.0kg
Explanation:
As you have mentioned in the question, to convert kilo-gram to grams, this conversion is used, 1 kilogram = 1,000 grams
Initially, when one has to convert from one unit to another, there is a lot of confusion. To avoid any such, multiply and divide the number with units to which it has to be converted.
Here,
970 g = 
This makes no difference to the number.
970 g = 
As, 1 kg= 1,000 g
970 g = 
970 g = 0.97 kg
Rounding this off to the nearest tenth of a kilogram.
The tenths place is immediately to the right of the decimal point.
Here, 9 is at the tenth's place. Round the tenth's place up if the digit at hundredth's place is greater than or equal to 5. Since, 7 > 5, up the number at tenth's place.
So, answer is 1.0 kg
