Answer:

The answer to your question is:

Explanation:

Ionic compound is formed when a metal and a nonmetal are attached.

If we have MgX₂, that means that the nonmetal must have a valence of -1.

From the list the nonmetals with a valence of -1 are:

Bromine(Br) and  fluorine(F).

Identify each of the following compounds as: (a) a nonelectrolyte: lactose (c12h22o11) potassium chloride (kcl) lactic acid (hc3

Nonelectrolytes are compounds that do not tend to get ionize in all solution. As a result, solutions which contains nonelectrolytes will not conduct electricity.

Ionic compounds dissolve in water and break into the constituent ions through the process called ionization. Now These electrolyte solutions can either be acids, or bases, or salts.

If  the process of ionization produces a large no. of ions in the solution, it is a strong electrolyte. On the other hand, if it produces only a few ions, the solution is a weak electrolyte,

Potassium chloride (KCL) is a strong electrolyte,

Lactic acid (HC3H503) is a weak electrolyte,

Whereas, Ethanol (C3H7OH) is a non electrolyte,

Dimethylamine (CH3)2NH is a weak electrolyte,

Sodium hydroxide(NaOH) is a strong electrolyte.

A charged object (like a balloon that's been rubbed on the wall) cant attract an object with a net neutral charge (neither posit
UNO [17]

Answer: A balloon is charged by a process of frictional charging and the object is getting charged by the process of induction.

Explanation:

When two bodies are rubbed against each other, charging by friction or rubbing occurs. The electropositive object loses electrons to electronegative object. Thus, when balloon is rubbed on a wall, it becomes charged.

The charged balloon is able to attract an uncharged object by inducing charge on it without the two objects touching each other. Electrostatic force acts between two charged objects. Charged balloon causes electrons to move at one end thereby inducing opposite charge in the object and thus, charged balloon is able to attract uncharged object.
