Answer:

Option d) X2O3

Explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question:

The electronic configuration of the element X => [He]3s23p1

Now, let us write the electronic configuration of oxygen. This is given below:

O(8) => 1s2 2s2 2p4

Considering the electronic configuration of the element X, we can the element has 3 electrons in the outermost shell. Oxygen on the other hand has 2 electrons in the outermost shell. During bonding, there will be exchange of ion as shown below:

X³ + O²¯—> X2O3

So, the formula of the most probable ionic compound that this element will form with O is X2O3

Maple syrup would be categorized under solutions. As it contains sugar which is very soluble in water, it dissolves completely in water depending on its solubility at that temperature making it impossible for the components to be filtered out. A solution is a homogeneous mixture.

Which of the following conditions will result in a reaction that is spontaneous only at high temperatures?
Korolek [52]
You have to use the equation ΔG=ΔH-TΔS.
With that equation you know that a reaction with a positive change in enthalpy and positive change in entropy will only be spontaneous at high temperatures since ΔG needs to be negative for a reaction to be spontaneous.

I hopet this helps.  Let me know if anything is unclear.
