Answer:

E²⁺

Explanation:

The group two contain alkaline earth metals.

There are six elements in group 2A.

Beryllium, Magnesium, calcium, strontium, barium and radium.

All members have two valance electrons.

They lose two valance electrons to complete the octet.

When they lose the two valance electrons they form cation X²⁺.

They react with halogens and form salt such as

MgCl₂, CaCl₂ etc.

Mg²⁺ Cl²⁻₂

The oxidation state of halogens are -1, while the elements of group two A shows +2 that's why two atoms of halogen are combine with one atom of alkaline earth metals and make the compound overall neutral.

All the alkaline earth metals have similar properties.

The thin outer layer of Earth, called the crust, contains only 0.50 percent of Earth's total mass and yet is the source of almos

Rzqust [24]

Answer:

The mass of silicon in kilograms in Earth's crust is $7.2729\times 10^{21} kg$ .

Explanation:

Mass of Earth = $5.9\times 10^{21} tons$

(1 ton= 2000 lb)

(1 lb =453.6 g)

1 ton = 2000 × 453.6 g =907,200 g

Mass of Earth = $5.9\times 10^{21}\times 907,200 g=5.3524\times 10^{27} g$

Percentage of earth crust = 0.50%

Mass of earth crust = M

$0.50\%=\frac{M}{5.3524\times 10^{27}}\times 100$

$M=2.6762\times 10^{25} g$

Percentage of the silicon in Earth's crust = 27.2 %

Mass of silicon in in Earth's crust = m

$Si\%=\frac{m}{M}\times 100$

$27.2\%=\frac{m}{2.6762\times 10^{25} g}\times 100$

$m = 7.2792\times 10^{24} g=7.2729\times 10^{21} kg$

1000 g = 1 kg

The mass of silicon in kilograms in Earth's crust is $7.2729\times 10^{21} kg$ .
