Zn⁰ ----> Zn⁺² + 2e⁻ - oxidation
Hg⁺² + 2e⁻ ----> Hg⁰ - reduction
Zn loses 2 moles of electrons , and Hg gains 2 mole of electrons.
So, number of moles of electrons gained and lost during reaction is equal.
Answer:
its easy ask to chrome or search in yt ;)
Answer:
1. No 1 looks like a statement and not a question.
2.Ionic compounds are usually formed from the transfer of electrons from metals to Non metals. All others are Ionic compounds except HCl(Its a covalent compound).
3. The Formula would be K2S. Exchange of Radicals takes place. Sulphur has a -2 charge and potassium has a +1 charge. when they both exchange radicals... The compound is K2S.
4.Group 1 elements have only 1 electron in their outermost shell.
5. its charge will be +1 because it loses the 1 electron in its outermost shell.
6.Group 2 elements have 2electrons in their Valence shell.
7.Already answered. same as No 5.
8. Group 16;Also known as group 6. They have only 6 electrons in their outermost shell.
9.When they want to become stable... they acquire 2electrons to complete their octet... so they possess a -2 charge by forming an ion.
10. i)They form ions when Dissolve in solutions
ii) They are hard and brittle
iii) They have high boiling points
