Chemistry

<u>Answer:</u> The chemical formula for the ionic compound formed will be MgO

<u>Explanation:</u>

Magnesium is the 12th element of the periodic table having electronic configuration of [Ne]3s^{2}

This element will loose 2 electrons and thus shows an oxidation state of +2 units.

Oxygen is the 8th element of the periodic table having electronic configuration of [He]2s^22p^4

This element requires 2 electrons and thus shows an oxidation state of -2 units.

By criss-cross method, the oxidation state of the ions gets exchanged and hence, they form the subscripts of the opposite ion. This results in the formation of a neutral compound.

Thus, the chemical formula for the ionic compound will be MgO

Why do real gases not behave exactly like ideal gases?
mihalych1998 [28]

Answer:

Real gas particles have significant volume

Real gas particles have more complex interactions than ideal gas particles.

Explanation:

An ideal gas is an imaginary concept and a gas behaves almost ideally at certain pressure and temperature conditions.

The gas in real deviates from the ideal behavior as some of the assumptions made for ideal gases are not true in case of real gases.

Real gas particles have significant volume as compared to vessel unlike ideal gases.

There are interactions present in between real gas molecules at high pressure conditions.

Describe relationships between molecules atoms and a grain of sugar
Contact [7]

The relationships between molecules atoms and a grain of sugar is the combination of atoms to molecules and the combination of molecules to a compound.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Atom is the foreground to the existence of matter and matter is just another huge combination of atoms. The presence of neutrons, protons and electrons are the important structures of atoms and these atoms are merged to build a molecule.

The relationships between molecules atoms and a grain of sugar is the combination of atoms to molecules and the combination of molecules to a compound.

Molecules are brought together with positive and negative parts of protons and electrons to form bonds and compounds. And compounds come up with elements which connects all these atoms.

Which of the following is the most electronegative element?
Kipish [7]
None of these; the most electronegative element is fluorine because an atom of fluorine needs an additional electron to join it's outer membrane, so the atom can achieve stability.

a flourine atom on its own is always a negative ion.
