Answer:
Strontium, a group 2 element with an electron configuration of 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁶ 4s² 3d¹⁰ 4p⁶ 5s² , will form a +2 ion in a chemical bond.
Explanation:
An ionic bond is produced between metallic and non-metallic atoms, where electrons are completely transferred from one atom to another. During this process, one atom loses electrons and another one gains them, forming ions. Usually, the metal gives up its electrons forming a cation to the nonmetal element, which forms an anion.
So an ion is an atom or group of atoms that have an electric charge. A cation is an ion that has a positive charge.
The alkali metals in the earth (Elements IIA) lose two electrons to form a 2+ cation. Strontium is an alkali metal that loses the two electrons belonging to 5s², forming the +2 ion.

here...I helped u! XD
jkjk...I'll got to the other questions too...dw! XD
Explanation:
When waves act together, you talk about "interference".
When they reinforce each other, it is "constructive interference".
When they cancel each other, it is "destructive interference".
