Answer:
1. The electronic configuration of X is: 1s2 2s2 sp6 3s2
2. The configuration of the anion of Y (i.e Y^2-) is 1s2 2s2 2p6
3. The formula of the compound form by X and Y is given as: XY
Explanation:
For X to loss two electrons, it means X is a group 2 element. X can be any element in group 2. The electronic configuration of X is:
1s2 2s2 sp6 3s2
To get the electronic configuration of the anion of element Y, let us find the configuration of element Y. This is done as follows:
Y receives two electrons from X to complete its octet. Therefore Y is a group 6 element. The electronic configuration of Y is given below
1s2 2s2 2p4
The configuration of the anion of Y (i.e Y^2-) is 1s2 2s2 2p6
The formula of the compound form by X and Y is given below :
X^2+ + Y^2- —> XY
Their valency will cancel out thus forming XY
Answer: Option (c) is the correct answer.
Explanation:
When a weak acid reacts with a strong base then it results into the formation of a basic solution. Hence, the resulting solution will always have a pH greater than 7.
Since, at the equivalence point number of hydrogen ions become equal to the hydroxide ions. Therefore, pH of solution will be about 7.
So at the equivalence point, the weak acid will get neutralized due to the addition of strong base. Therefore, it will lead to the formation of conjugate base.
As a result, the solution will become slightly basic in nature.
Thus, we can conclude that at the equivalence point, the acid has all been converted into its conjugate base, resulting in a weakly acidic solution because at the equivalence point, the acid has all been converted into its conjugate base, resulting in a weakly basic solution.
