Cathode rays are a stream of negatively charged particles or electrons in vacuum tubes. They were first seen by Johann Hittorf in 1869. They are named since they are emitted by electrode or cathode. In order to release the electrons, the electrons should first be detached from the atoms of the cathode.

Q 1. Element M is a metal that forms compounds of the type MX2, MX3, and MX4, where X is a Chlorine (Cl).

SOVA2 [1]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

The ionic radius of metal M decreases as the charge on the metal M increases. The ionic radius is generally defined as the distance between the nucleus and the outermost electron of the ion. Hence, ionic radius becomes much lesser as the magnitude of the positive charge increases.

It is obvious from the various formulae of metal chlorides in the question that the metal forms cations M^2+, M^3+ and M^4+ respectively. The order of decreasing ionic radius of the compounds is;

MX2 > MX3 > MX4

The black, granular material that fills a dry cell in a common flashlight (between the carbon rod and the zinc shell) is mangane

mestny [16]

Answer: c. +4

Explanation:

For formation of a neutral ionic compound, the charges on cation and anion must be balanced. The cation is formed by loss of electrons by metals and anions are formed by gain of electrons by non metals.

$Mn:25:1s^22s^22p^63s^23p^64s^23d^{5}$

$Mn^{4+}:21:1s^22s^22p^63s^23p^63d^1$

$O:8:1s^22s^22p^4$

$O^{2-}:10:1s^22s^22p^6$

Here manganese is having an oxidation state of +4 called as cation and oxygen forms an anion with oxidation state of -2. Thus they combine and their oxidation states are exchanged to give $Mn_2O_4$ which written in simplest whole number ratios to give neutral $MnO_2$
