Answer:
Potassium cation = K⁺²
Explanation:
The metal cation in K₂SO₄ is K⁺². While the anion is SO₄²⁻.
All the metals have tendency to lose the electrons and form cation. In given compound the metal is potassium so it should form the cation. The overall compound is neutral.
The charge on sulfate is -2. While the oxidation state of potassium is +1. So in order to make compound overall neutral there should be two potassium cation so that potassium becomes +2 and cancel the -2 charge on sulfate and make the charge on compound zero.
2K⁺² , SO₄²⁻
K₂SO₄
Answer:
Barium and Calcium
Explanation:
When heated with chlorine,
Both calcium and barium are able to form ionic bonds.
Hydrogen can only form bonds that are partial positive. It is not strong enough to be considered an ionic bond.
Silicon forms strong covalent with chlorine, called silicon tetrachloride. The structure is in diamond form which requires a lot of heat energy to break the bonds are way more than energy needed to break the bonds between calcium chloride.
Krypton is an inert element which does not form bonds with any elements under standard conditions
Something that is invisible that you can not see.
