<span>In chemistry, a catalyst can speed up the reaction (or make it initiate easier) by altering the activation energy, lowering it enough to allow the reactants to react more easily. Some negative catalysts or inhibitors can do the same by increasing the activation energy.

Answer:
The correct answer is 199.66 grams per mole.
Explanation:
Based on law of effusion given by Graham, a gas rate of effusion is contrariwise proportionate to the square root of molecular mass, that is, rate of effusion of gas is inversely proportional to the square root of mass. Therefore,
R1/R2 = √ M2/√ M1
Here rate is the rate of effusion of the gas expressed in terms of number of mole per uni time or volume, and M is the molecular mass of the gas.
Rate Q/Rate N2 = √M of N2/ √M of Q
The molecular mass of N2 or nitrogen gas is 28 grams per mole and M of Q is molecular mass of Q and based on the question Q needs 2.67 times more to effuse in comparison to nitrogen gas, therefore, rate of Q = rate of N2/2.67
Now putting the values we get,
rate of N2/2.67/rate of N2 = √28/ √M of Q
√M of Q = √ 28 × 2.67
M of Q = (√ 28 × 2.67)²
M of Q = 199.66 grams per mole
The loss of electron from an results in the formation of cation represented by the positive charge on the element whereas gaining of electron results in the formation of anion represented by the negative charge on the element.
The alkali earth metal beryllium (
) belongs to the second group of the periodic table. The ground state electronic configuration of
is:
From the electronic configuration it is clear that it has 2 valence electrons in its valence shell (
).
After losing all valence electrons that is 2 electrons from
orbital. The electronic configuration will be:

Since, lose of electron is represented by positive charge on the element symbol. So, the beryllium will have +2 charge on its symbol as
.
Hence, beryllium will have 2+ charge on it after losing all its valence electrons in the chemical reaction.
