A metal X loses 2 electrons and a non-metal Y gains 1 electron. Show the electron dot structure of compound formed between them.

Is it ionic or covalent? Does it have high or low melting point? Will it conduct electricity in solid state or in aqueous solution and why? Will it be soluble in water?

Answer:

The compound is ionic

The compound has a high melting point

The compound will conduct electricity in aqueous solution

The compound will be soluble in water

Explanation:

Now, let us consider the nature of the compound formed when a metal X looses two electrons and a non metal Y accepts one electron.

The compound formed must be ionic in nature with a  formula XY2. Ionic compounds are formed by transfer of electrons from metals to nonmetals.

The ionic substance formed is always soluble in water with a high melting point. Usually, ionic solids do not conduct electricity in the solid state because the charge carriers (ions) are tightly bound in the crystal structure while in the solid state. In aqueous solution, the ions are relatively free hence ionic substances conduct electricity in aqueous solution.

What is the name of the ionic compound AlBr3?
Aleksandr [31]

Answer: Correct name will be is aluminum bromide

Explanation:

In a molecular formula ,AlBr_3

Aluminium atoms present = 1  

Bromine atoms present = 3

Charge on aluminium is +3 and charge on bromine is -1.

While naming:

  • Name of the cation is written first. Simple name of the element is written
  • After name of cation name of an anions written with suffix 'ide' in the end.

So, the name of AlBr_3 will be aluminium bromide.

Which organelle of a prokaryotic cell contains genetic information?
vodomira [7]

Answer:

The right option is the 4 one. nucleoid

Prokaryotic cells are simple cells that lack a definite nucleus and some membrane-bound organelles. Prokaryotic cells have a nucleoid region, which is an irregularly-shaped central region of the cell that contains the cell’s genetic information (DNA). Other organelles that can be found in prokaryotic cells include plasma membrane, cell wall, cytoplasm, and ribosomes.
