Answer:
Where are the question's???
Explanation:
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.
The answer to this question would be: alkaline earth metal
Alkali earth metal is the second column group of the periodic table. In this group, the element has 2 extra electrons in their outer cells. That is why most of this metal has 2+ charge.
Their neighbor is the alkali metal which was the first column of the periodic table. The name is similar so don't confused and mix them each other.
In every reaction, mass cannot be destroyed nor created as defined by the law of conservation of mass. Energy also cannot be destroyed when a chemical reaction takes place
