If an atom has an electron configuration of 2.8.2, what will it be most likely to bond with?

Chemistry

Kipish [7]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

B. Two chlorine atoms

Explanation:

This electronic configuration shows that the given atom is magnesium.

Electronic configuration of magnesium:

Mg¹² = 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s²

There are two valance electrons of magnesium that's why it would react with two atoms of chlorine. Chlorine is present in seventeen group. It has seven valance electrons. It required just one electron to get complete octet. While magnesium needed to lose two electrons to get complete octet. That's why two chlorine atoms bonded with one magnesium atom. Thus both would get complete octet.

Mg + Cl₂  →   MgCl₂

Many elements combine with hydrogen(valence = 1) to give compounds called hydrides. Use the position of an element in the period
elena-s [515]

Answer:

Explanation:

Use the position of an element in the periodic table to deduce its valence.

The periodic table is a table that groups elements based on their periodic functions. A group is a vertical arrangement of elements. The group number shows the number of elements in the outer shell of the atoms.

The groups runs from 1 to 8. On the periodic table, elements that has more than 4 electrons in their outermost shell will have a valency of 8 less than the number of outermost electrons.

Write formulas for these hydrides without using subscripts, for example XH3. If no hydride forms, write "none".

for group I : NaH, KH,

    group II : MgH2, CaH2,

    group III: BH3, AlH3

  Group 8 do not form hydrides because of their inertness.

What is the formula of the hydride formed by sulfur?

the hydride of sulfur is H₂S

What is the formula of the hydride formed by potassium ?

the hydride of potassium is KH

How many grams of H2 will react with 350 g of N2?
miss Akunina [59]

Answer:

10.80

Explanation:

As per the equation, let us calculate the mole ratio. N2+3H2→2NH3. As per the equation one mole of nitrogen  reacts with 1 mol of hydrogen.

In terms of mass. 28.01 g of nitrogen needs 3 mol of hydrogen or 6.048 g of hydrogen.

We can set up the ratio;
