Answer:

1. Alpha particles consist of two protons and two neutrons.

Explanation:

Alpha particles are generally produced in the process of alpha decay, a radio active decay in which an atom loses an helium atom.

AN alpha particle is identical  to the helium particle. The helium particle has mass number of 4 and atomic number of 2. This means;

Number of protons = 2

Number of neutrons = Mass Number - Atomic Number = 2

The correct option is option 1.

Answer: B. 1:2

Explanation: Beryllium and chlorine forms a binary ionic compound. Ionic compound is formed when a metal loses its electrons to a receiving non metal. Beryllium (metal) has two valence electrons while chlorine (nonmetal) has seven valence electrons, and so a beryllium atom has to give out its two valence electrons to attain a duplet stable structure while a chlorine atom will gain one electron to attain its stable octet structure. In the reaction between beryllium and chlorine, two atoms of chlorine have to accept the two electrons from one beryllium atom to attain their stable octet structure.

The formula of the compound formed is BeCl2.
