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.

C. hydrogen accreted onto a white dwarf from a close companion rapidly fuses to helium, releasing a large amount of energy.

The accreted material, composed mainly of hydrogen, is compacted on the surface of the white dwarf due to the intense gravitational force on that place. As material accumulates, The white dwarf becomes increasingly hot, until it reaches the critical temperature for ignition of nuclear fusion.

Stella [2.4K]

Answer:

Angle of incline is 20.2978°

Explanation:

Given that;

Gravitational acceleration on a planet a = 3.4 m/s²

Gravitational acceleration on Earth g = 9.8 m/s²

Angle of incline = ∅

Mass of the stone = m

Force on the stone along the incline will be;

F = mgSin∅

F = ma

The stone has the same acceleration as that of the gravitational acceleration on the planet.

so

ma = mgSin∅

a = gSin∅

Sin∅ = a / g

we substitute

Sin∅ = (3.4 m/s²) / (9.8 m/s²)

Sin∅ = 0.3469

∅ = Sin⁻¹( 0.3469 )

∅ = 20.2978°

Therefore, Angle of incline is 20.2978°
