MgCl2 = 1Mg + 2Cl = 1(24.3) + 2(35.45) = 95.2g/1mole
7.50moles MgCl2 x 95.2g MgCl2 = 714g MgCl2
Answer:The distribution of electrons in an atom is called as Electronic Configuration. Formula 2n2 helps in the determination of the maximum number of electrons present in an orbit, here n= orbit number.
Explanation:
C) Fluorine is the most reactive among halogens
Answer:
Four
Step-by-step explanation:
The <em>superscripts</em> in an electron configuration tell us how many electrons are in a subshell.
If the electron configuration is 1s¹ 2s¹2p², the total number of electrons is
1 + 1 + 2 = 4
The atom contains four electrons.
<em>Note</em>: this atom is in an <em>excited state</em>, because the 1s and 2s subshells can each hold one more electron.
Answer:
To gain stability
Explanation:
If the outermost shell is not completely filled with electrons, the element has one of the three options: gaining electrons, losing electrons or sharing electrons. By gaining or losing electrons, ionic compounds are produced. Sharing of electrons results in the formation of covalent compounds.
