Answer: Boron is the element which has properties of both metals and nonmetals.

Explanation:

Metals are defined as the elements which loose electrons to attain stable electronic configuration. They attain positive charge and form cation. Example: Zinc (Zn), Aluminium (Al) , copper (Cu)

Non-metals are defined as the elements which gain electrons to attain stable electronic configuration. They attain negative charge and form anion. Example: Chlorine (Cl) , Sulphur (S)

Metalloids are defined as the elements which show properties of both metals and non-metals. There are 7 metalloids in the periodic table. They are Boron (B) , Silicon (Si) , Germanium (Ge) , Arsenic (As) ,  Antimony (Sb), Tellurium (Te) and Polonium (Po).

Thus boron is the element which has properties of both metals and nonmetals.

Which ion would represent the ion of an element from Group 2A?
ziro4ka [17]

Answer:

E²⁺

Explanation:

The group two contain alkaline earth metals.

There are six elements in group 2A.

Beryllium, Magnesium, calcium, strontium, barium and radium.

All members have two valance electrons.

They lose two valance electrons to complete the octet.

When they lose the two valance electrons they form cation X²⁺.

They react with halogens and form salt such as

MgCl₂, CaCl₂ etc.

Mg²⁺  Cl²⁻₂

The oxidation state of halogens are -1, while the elements of group two A shows +2 that's why two atoms of halogen are combine with one atom of alkaline earth metals and make the compound overall neutral.

All the alkaline earth metals have similar properties.

Lilit [14]

Answer:It is necessary to use Kelvin for the temperature and it is conventional to use the SI unit of liters for the volume.

Explanation:

However, pressure is commonly measured in one of three units: kPa, atm, or mmHg. Therefore, can have three different values.
