Answer:K2X
Explanation: Valency can be defined as the combining power of an element. It is the valency that dictates the value an element will have when writing a chemical formula for its compound.
MgX is a compound of magnesium and an element X. The valency of magnesium in most of its compound is +2. Now for the 2 to have been absent in the chemical formula, this shows that the element X itself have a valency if -2 for the valencies of both to have canceled out.
Now considering the element potassium, it is an alkaline metal belonging to group 1 of the periodic table. Hence, it is expected that it has a valency of +1
Forming a compound with element X means there would be an exchange of valencies between the two. We have established that x has a valency of -2. The formula of the compound thus formed by exchanging the valencies of both element would be K2X
Answer:
The answer to your question is Q = 355.64 J
Explanation:
Data
Heat = Q = ?
Temperature 1 = T1 = 20°C
Temperature 2 = T2 = 37°C
mass = m = 5 g
Specific heat = Cp = 4.184 J/g°C
Formula
Q = mCp(T2 - T1)
-Substitution
Q = (5)(4.184)(37 - 20)
-Simplification
Q = (5)(4.184)(17)
-Result
Q = 355.64 J
Answer:
Calcium can be ignited and will when burning react with both oxygen and nitrogen forming calcium oxide, CaO, and calcium nitride, Ca3N2.
