Molten barium chloride is separeted
into two species :
BaCl₂(l) → Ba(l) + Cl₂(g),
but first ionic bonds in this salt are separeted because of heat:
BaCl₂(l) → Ba²⁺(l) + 2Cl⁻(l).
Reaction of reduction at cathode(-): Ba²⁺(l) + 2e⁻ → Ba(l).
Reaction of oxidation at anode(+): 2Cl⁻(l) → Cl₂(g) + 2e⁻.
<span>The anode is positive and the cathode is negative.</span>
Answer:
(b) Both have the same number of valence electrons.
Step-by-step explanation:
We find the most striking chemical similarities between two Main Group elements when they are in the same Group of the Periodic Table.
Elements in the same Group have the same number of valence electrons.
(a) is <em>wrong</em>, because elements in the same group have <em>different masses</em>.
(c) is <em>wrong,</em> because atoms with the same number of protons belong to the s<em>ame element</em>.
(d) is wrong, because elements in the same Group must be in .
<em>different Periods.</em>
