Question

1) Ions are formed between positive or negative charge.

Answer 1

Answer:

1. No 1 looks like a statement and not a question.

2.Ionic compounds are usually formed from the transfer of electrons from metals to Non metals. All others are Ionic compounds except HCl(Its a covalent compound).

3. The Formula would be K2S. Exchange of Radicals takes place. Sulphur has a -2 charge and potassium has a +1 charge. when they both exchange radicals... The compound is K2S.

4.Group 1 elements have only 1 electron in their outermost shell.

5. its charge will be +1 because it loses the 1 electron in its outermost shell.

6.Group 2 elements have 2electrons in their Valence shell.

7.Already answered. same as No 5.

8. Group 16;Also known as group 6. They have only 6 electrons in their outermost shell.

9.When they want to become stable... they acquire 2electrons to complete their octet... so they possess a -2 charge by forming an ion.

10. i)They form ions when Dissolve in solutions

ii) They are hard and brittle

iii) They have high boiling points
