4 0

Answer:

Charge on X  = (+ 2)

Explanation:

Charge on one Cl = -1

So Charge on two Cl = -2

The molecule = Neutral = 0 charge

So, to make total charge = 0 , the X should have +2 charge

XCl2 = +2 -2 = 0

X = +2

Alkaline earth metals(Be , Mg , Ca , Sr) form such type of compounds.

Example :

MgCl_{2}

CaCl_{2}

Group 7A (17) elements can gain one electron to attain a noble gas electron configuration. In combination with metal atoms that
Iteru [2.4K]

Answer:

The two statements are all True for group 7 and 8 elements.

Explanation:

The Group 7 elements are known as the halogens. They are reactive non-metals and are always found in compounds with other elements. Chlorine, bromine and iodine are all halogens.

Chlorine, bromine and iodine are the three common Group 7 elements. Group 7 elements form salts when they react with metals. The term ‘halogen’ means 'salt former'.

In addition to the discription given to norble gases in the question which is true, norble gases;

  •     are inert gases located on the right of the periodic table.
  •     have a full-set of valence electrons, so they're stable, unreactive
  •     are colorless, odorless and tasteless.
  •     have low melting and low boiling points.
  •     can be found in small amounts in the Earth's crust and the Earth's atmosphere.

Separate this redox reaction into its component half-reactions. 3o2 4co
swat32
The equation is:
3 O₂ + 4 Co → 2 Co₂O₃
Oxidation half reaction:
Co → Co³⁺ + 3 e
Reduction half reaction:
O₂ + 4 e → 2 O²⁻
To balance the equation number of electrons lost must be equal to number or electrons gained so we must multiply oxidation half time 4 and reduction half times 3
