Answer:
E²⁺
Explanation:
The group two contain alkaline earth metals.
There are six elements in group 2A.
Beryllium, Magnesium, calcium, strontium, barium and radium.
All members have two valance electrons.
They lose two valance electrons to complete the octet.
When they lose the two valance electrons they form cation X²⁺.
They react with halogens and form salt such as
MgCl₂, CaCl₂ etc.
Mg²⁺ Cl²⁻₂
The oxidation state of halogens are -1, while the elements of group two A shows +2 that's why two atoms of halogen are combine with one atom of alkaline earth metals and make the compound overall neutral.
All the alkaline earth metals have similar properties.
Answer:
Explanation:
Electrons are transferred from atoms of sodium to atoms of phosophorus. This transfer makes the sodium atoms positive and the phosphorus atoms negative. As a result, the sodium and phosphorus atoms strongly attract each other.
Answer:
Q9. The independent variable in this experiment is the fertilizer. It is independent because she manipulating the variable to compare the growth.
Q10. The dependent variable in this experiment is the amount of growth of the corn. It is this because the growth depends on what the scientist did on the corn.
Q11. The variable controlled in this experiment is the amount of sun and water. These two variables never change so this is why it is the control.
Explanation:
Steam rises to the top and stays there
