An atom with two valence electrons in the periodic table belongs to the alkaline earth metals or 2nd group. The element with atomic number 17 is chlorine with 7 valence electrons. Ionic compounds are formed between the atoms of elements with high electronegativity difference. More the difference, more they are likely to form ionic bond.

Thus in this case, the most likely formed ionic compound will be with alkaline earth metal with high electropositivity. The highest electropositive element in group 2 is barium thus, ionic compound formed will be BaCl_{2}

In  BaCl_{2}, barium will donate its two electrons, one to each chlorine atom. The resultant compound will be ionic in which all the atom have complete octets.

A tiny sphere carrying a charge of 6. 5 µc sits in an electric field, at a point where the electric potential is 240 v. what is
vodka [1.7K]

The sphere’s Electric potential energy is 1.6*10^{-6}J

Given,

q=6. 5 µc, V=240 v,

We know that sphere’s Electric potential energy(E) = qV=6.5*10^{-6} *240=1.6*10^{-6}J

<h3>Electric potential energy</h3>

The configuration of a certain set of point charges within a given system is connected with the potential energy (measured in joules) known as electric potential energy, which is a product of conservative Coulomb forces. Two crucial factors—its inherent electric charge and its position in relation to other electrically charged objects—can determine whether an object has electric potential energy.

In systems with time-varying electric fields, the potential energy is referred to as "electric potential energy," but in systems with time-invariant electric fields, the potential energy is referred to as "electrostatic potential energy."

A force is applied to an object at rest with a mass of 100 kg. The same force is applied to an object at rest with a mass of 1 k
Darya [45]
The object with a mass of 100 kg would move slower than the object with a mass of 1 kg. This is because a greater force is required to move the object with a mass of 100 kg compared to the object of 1 kg.

Explain how we use a spectrometer to help us determine what stars and planets are made of?
BaLLatris [955]
We use a spectrometer to help us determine what stars and planets are made of by passing a light through various chemical elements, different spectral patterns are created. By matching those patterns up to patterns generated in a laboratory environment we can tell what the composition of a distant star or planet is.
