Answer:K2X
Explanation: Valency can be defined as the combining power of an element. It is the valency that dictates the value an element will have when writing a chemical formula for its compound.
MgX is a compound of magnesium and an element X. The valency of magnesium in most of its compound is +2. Now for the 2 to have been absent in the chemical formula, this shows that the element X itself have a valency if -2 for the valencies of both to have canceled out.
Now considering the element potassium, it is an alkaline metal belonging to group 1 of the periodic table. Hence, it is expected that it has a valency of +1
Forming a compound with element X means there would be an exchange of valencies between the two. We have established that x has a valency of -2. The formula of the compound thus formed by exchanging the valencies of both element would be K2X
I believe the answer is B??????????? Hope this helps

Molar mass ethanol:
C2H5OH = 12 x 2+ 1 x 5 + 16 + 1 = 46.0 g/mol
volume = 545 mL in liters: 545 / 1000 => 0.545 L
number of moles:
29.0 / 46.0 => 0.6304 moles
M = n / V
M = 0.6304 / 0.545
M = 1.156 mol/L
hope this helps!
