Answer:

element having 2+ valence electrons can transfer its more than one electron that is 2 electron completely.

Explanation:

Group IIA have 2+ valency and two electrons in its valance shell.

Its Electropositivity is high and have the tendency to donate it two electrons.

Element of IIA form ionic with most electronegative element.

Examples:

Cu²⁺, Mg²⁺, Sr²⁺ are examples having 2+ valance electron

one of the following is examples of element that have 2+ valence electrons

MgCl₂

Atomic number of Magnesium (Mg) is 12

Electronic Configuration of Mg:

1s², 2s², 2p⁶, 3s²

K =2

L = 8

M = 2

So, it have to give its 2 electrons to form a stable compound.

Similarly

Chlorine atomic number is 17

Electronic Configuration of Chlorine:

1s², 2s², 2p⁶, 3s², 3p⁵

K =2

L = 8

M = 7

So, it have to gain one electrons to form a stable compound and complete its octet.

So,

Two chlorine atom as a molecule gain 2 electrons from Mg²⁺ atom

So one Mg²⁺ and 2 Cl⁻ atoms form an ionic bond

where in this ionic bond Mg²⁺ transfer its 2 valence electron completely and chlorine molecule accept 2 electrons.

Cl-----Mg------Cl

So the Answer is

element having 2+ valence electrons can transfer its more than one electron that is 2 electron completely.

Current passes through a solution of sodium chloride. In 1.00 second, 2.68×1016Na+ ions arrive at the negative electrode and 3.9

EleoNora [17]

Answer : The current passing between the electrodes is, $1.056\times 10^{-2}A$

Explanation :

First we have to calculate the charge of sodium ion.

$q=ne$

where,

q = charge of sodium ion

n = number of sodium ion = $2.68\times 10^{16}$

e = charge on electron = $1.6\times 10^{-19}C$

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get:

$q=(2.68\times 10^{16})\times (1.6\times 10^{-19}C)=4.288\times 10^{-3}C$

Now we have to calculate the charge of chlorine ion.

$q'=ne$

where,

q' = charge of chlorine ion

n = number of chlorine ion = $3.92\times 10^{16}$

e = charge on electron = $1.6\times 10^{-19}C$

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get:

$q'=(3.92\times 10^{16})\times (1.6\times 10^{-19}C)=6.272\times 10^{-3}C$

Now we have to calculate the current passing between the electrodes.

$I=\frac{q}{t}+\frac{q'}{t}$

$I=\frac{4.288\times 10^{-3}}{1.00}+\frac{6.272\times 10^{-3}}{1.00}$

$I=1.056\times 10^{-2}A$

Thus, the current passing between the electrodes is, $1.056\times 10^{-2}A$

What is the name of the following compound? A line-angle formula shows a ring with six vertices and a circle inscribed. A Cl ato

ozzi

Answer: Option C. p-dichlorobenzene and 1,4-dichlorobenzene.

Explanation:

A line-angle formula with six vertices and a circle inscribed corresponds to the compound known as benzene.

Further, according to the IUPAC standards for naming benzene derivatives, you must first number the position of the substituent. In this case, the substituents (chloros) are located at the positions 1 and 4; also, for the benzene derivatives when they have 2 substituents and the positions are 1 and 4, this configuration is known as <em>para </em>or <em>p </em>configuration.

Additionally, this compound has 2 substituents (chloros) so you have to indicate this number (di).

Therefore, the correct answer is C. p-dichlorobenzene and 1,4-dichlorobenzene.

Which increases the likelihood that a dead organisms will be fossilized

zzz [600]

When an organism is buried quickly there is less decay and better the chance for it to be persevere. The hard parts of the organism such as bones, shells, and teeth have a better chance of becoming fossils that softer parts of the organism. HARD BONES.
