Because their valence shell have stable electrons so they can't gain or loose electrons.
in ionic bonds the elements should gain or loose electrons
The answer is A i did this before hope this helps
K₃PO₄<span>(aq) reacts with Al(NO</span>₃)₃(aq) and form AlPO₄(s) and KNO₃(aq) as the products.
Before writing net ionic reaction, following steps should be followed.
Step 1 : Write the balanced chemical equation for the reaction and indicate the state of compound as aq,s,g or l.
K₃PO₄(aq) + Al(NO₃)₃(aq) → AlPO₄(s) + 3KNO₃(aq)
Step 2 : Identify the ionic species which dissolve in water to form ions.
K₃PO₄(aq) → 3K⁺(aq) + PO₄⁻(aq)
Al(NO₃)₃(aq) → Al³⁺(aq) + 3NO₃⁻(aq)
KNO₃(aq) → K⁺(aq) + NO₃⁻(aq)
Step 3 : Write the equation again by using ions.
3K⁺(aq) + PO₄⁻(aq) + Al³⁺(aq) + 3NO₃⁻(aq) → AlPO₄(s) +3K⁺(aq) + 3NO₃⁻(aq)
Step 4 : Identify the similar species in both side of the equation and cut off them.
3K⁺(aq) and 3NO₃⁻(aq) present in both sides. Hence, those ions can be cut off.
Step 5 : Get the final ionic equation.
The net ionic equation for the given reaction is
Al³⁺(aq) + PO₄⁻(aq) → AlPO₄(s)
Here we have to identify the sample which need more energy to heat the sample 1 degree Celsius.
Among the given elements magnesium will require more energy than the others to heat.
As per the definition of specific heat of a compound, the amount of heat required to increase the temperature of the material 1 degree Celsius is the specific heat of the material.
The given data are-
substance specific heat
Lead 0.129
Tin 0.21
Silver 0.235
Iron 0.449
Calcium 0.647
Granite 0.803
Aluminium 0.897
Magnesium 1.023
From the given data lead, magnesium, iron and aluminium have the specific heat 0.129, 1.023, 0.449 and 0.897 respectively. Thus magnesium will require more energy than the others to heat.
Cl2O but the two is a little two after Cl
