You did not include the statements but since magnesium chloride is ionic substance that we know that magnesium and chlorine formed an ionic bond. Therefore your statement most likely will talk about how one magnesium atom gave up 2 electrons while two chlorine atoms took 1 electron. The reaction looks like Mg+2Cl⇒MgCl₂.
I hope this helps. Let me know in the comments if anything is unclear.
Hmm... I'm unsure but its either B or D.
Yes, S-blocks are metals except for helium and hydrogen. The S-block metals are shiny, silvery and relatively soft, although they can easily lose electrons. Helium and hydrogen have valence electrons but also lack some similar properties as the other metals.
Answer:
(a) The rate of formation of K2O is 0.12 M/s.
The rate of formation of N2 is also 0.12 M/s
(b) The rate of decomposition of KNO3 is 0.24 M/s
Explanation:
(a) From the equation of reaction, the mole ratio of K2O to O2 is 2:5.
Rate of formation of O2 is 0.3 M/s
Therefore, rate of formation of K2O = (2×0.3/5) = 0.12 M/s
Also from the equation of reaction, mole ratio of N2 to O2 is 2:5.
Rate of formation of N2 = (2×0.3/5) = 0.12 M/s
(b) From the equation of reaction, mole ratio of KNO3 to O2 is 4:5.
Therefore, rate of decomposition of KNO3 = (4×0.3/5) = 0.24 M/s
