Anon25 [30]

Answer : The chemical formula for the compound is, MI

Explanation :

When the element 'M' react with the I_2 to give MI.

The balanced chemical reaction is,

2M+I_2\rightarrow 2MI

In this reaction, 'M' is in mono-atomic form and I_2 is in diatomic form.

By the stoichiometry,

2 moles 'M' react with the 1 mole of I_2 to give 2 moles of MI.

Therefore, the chemical formula of the compound is, MI

What happens to the number of neutrons as you move across the table? <br><br> left to right
luda_lava [24]

Answer: The number of neutrons will increase as we move from left to right in a periodic table.

Explanation:

Atomic number is equal to the number of protons.

Mass number is the sum of number of neutrons and number of protons.

As we move from left to right, both the atomic number and mass number increases.

For example: As we move from Lithium to berrylium to boron to carbon to nitrogen to oxygen to fluorine to neon , the number of neutrons increase from 4 to 5 to 6 to 6 to 7 to 8 to 10 to 10.

Thus the number of neutrons will also increase as we move from left to right in a periodic table.
