Answer:

Option d, 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6 4s2

Explanation:

Alkaline earth metals belong to group 2 of the periodic table. Elements belonging to group 2 are beryllium, magnesium, calcium, strontium and barium and radium.

Alkaline earth metals have 2 valence electrons and these two electrons are filled in outermost s sub shell.

General electronic configuration of alkaline earth metal: ns^2

In ionized state, number of electrons in s sub shell will not be 2.

Among the given, only 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6 4s2, has 2 electrons in s sub shell. So, it an electronic configuration of neutral alkaline earth metal.

Which compound contains both ionic and covalent
musickatia [10]

Answer:

(3) NaNO₃

Step-by-step explanation:

Sodium nitrate has ionic bonds, because it consists of Na⁺ and NO₃⁻ ions.

However, the nitrate ions have <em>covalent bonds</em> between the O atoms and the central N atoms.

(1) and (2) are <em>wrong</em>. Both N₂O₅ and HCl consist of nonmetals, so they are <em>covalent</em> compounds.

(4) is <em>wrong</em>. NaCl has <em>only ionic bonds</em> between the Na⁺ and Cl⁻ ions
