In an ionic compound the atoms are linked via ionic bonds. These are formed by the transfer of electrons from one atom to the other. The atom that loses electrons gains a positive charge whereas the atom that accepts electrons gains a negative. This happens in accordance with the octet rule wherein each atom is surrounded by 8 electrons
In the given example:
The valence electron configuration of Iodine (I) = 5s²5p⁵
It needs only one electron to complete its octet.
In the given options:
K = 4s¹
C = 2s²2p²
Cl = 3s²3p⁵
P = 3s²3p³
Thus K can donate its valence electron to Iodine. As a result K, will gain a stable noble gas configuration of argon while iodine would gain an octet. This would also balance the charges as K⁺I⁻ creating a neutral molecule.
Ans: Potassium (K)
the answer is :the concentration the chemicals in the solution because the more ions there are in the solution the higher the conductivity also the more ions there are in the solution the stronger the electrolyte
Larger elements are able to form in a supernova explosion because the star releases very large amounts of energy as well as neutrons, which allows elements heavier than iron to be produced.
<h3>What is Supernova?</h3>
This is referred to the explosion of a star and it resulting in larger elements being formed through a process known as nucleosynthesis and is usually accompanied by an increase in the brightness of the star.
The elements produced are usually larger than elements such as iron and examples include uranium, gold etc.
This is therefore the reason why it was chosen as the most appropriate choice.

Answer:
SOCl2, Mg, CH3CHO, H3O^+
Explanation:
The reaction of the 2,2-dimethylpropan-1-ol with SOCl2 converts the alcohol to an alkyl halide. This now reacts with Mg metal to yield a Grignard reagent.
The Grignard reagent reacts with CH3CHO and acid to yield 4,4-dimethylpentan-2-ol as shown in the image attached to this answer.
