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
Hello!
The reaction that the graph represents is
A. Exothermic because Hrxn=-167 kJTo calculate Hrxn we apply the following equation:
Looking at the graph, and at the result of the calculations, we can see that the enthalpy of the products is
lower than the enthalpy of the reagents, because the sign is negative. That means that the reaction
releases energy in the form of heat and that the reaction is
exothermic.
Have a nice day!
Answer:
If another scientist give better reasons;if they tested their hypothesis and it was wrong; if someone proved whatever the idea was to be wrong
Explanation:
I mean the list can go on at this point
Elements which composed of an equal amount of three components protons, neutrons and electrons are considered neutral elements. example of neutral elements are hydrogen, helium, lithium and beryllium...
