Answer:
a) That of Al is higher than that of Mg because Mg wants to lose the second electron, so it is easier to take the second electron away
<h3>Answer:</h3>
Ionic Bond
<h3>Explanation:</h3>
Types of Bonds can be predicted by calculating the difference in electronegativity.
If, Electronegativity difference is,
Less than 0.4 then it is Non Polar Covalent Bonding
Between 0.4 and 1.7 then it is Polar Covalent Bonding
Greater than 1.7 then it is Ionic Bonding
For Mg and Cl,
E.N of Chlorine = 3.16
E.N of Magnesium = 1.31
________
E.N Difference 1.85 (Ionic Bond)
<h3>Conclusion:</h3>
MgCl₂ being ionic in nature when dissolved in water dissociates into Magnesium and Chloride ions respectively.
Explanation:
The steps involved in formation of a sedimentary rock are placed in the correct order as follows.
Step 1: The sediment is deposited by wind, flowing water, or other natural processes.
Step 2: The sediment is gradually buried and compacted.
Step 3: Dissolved minerals completely cement the sediment together.
As a result, it leads to the formation of a sedimentary rock.
