Which of the following ions would represent the ion of an element from Group 2A?
2 answers:
An element belongs to particular group is related to the number of electrons present in the outer shell of the atoms. In given case, group is 2, therefore, number of valence electrons is 2 implies it has ability to lose two electrons to get +2 charge.
Therefore, ion formed after removal of two electrons is .
Hence, option (D) is the correct answer.

Answer:
Enthalpy of formation = -947.68KJ/mol
Explanation:
Enthalpy of formation is the heat change when one mole of a substance is formed from its element in its standard states and in standard conditions of temperature and pressure. it may be positive or negative, if positive, it is an endothermic reaction where the heat content of the product is greater than that of the reactants, and if negative, it is exothermic reaction - where the heat content of the reactants is greater than the products. the enthalpy of formation is measured in KiloJoule/Moles (KJ/Mole).
From the value of the enthalpy of formation of NaHCO3, it shows that the reaction is exothermic, that is the formation of NaHCO3 from its constituents elements. As such, the heat content of the reactants is greater than the products.
The step by step explanation is shown in the attachment.
