Answer:
Group 1 and 2 elements
Explanation:
Nitrogen, a non-metal will form ionic bonds with most group 1 and group 2 metals on the periodic table.
How does ionic bonds form?
- They are bonds formed between a highly electronegative specie and one with very low electronegativity.
- As such, ionic bonds forms between metals and non-metals
- In this bond type, the metal due to its electropositive nature will transfer electrons to the non-metals for it to gain.
- The non-metals becomes negatively charged as the metal is positively charged.
- The electrostatic attraction between the two specie leads to the formation of ionic bonds.
Most metals in group 1 and 2 fits in this description. Some of them are calcium, magnesium, lithium, Barium e.t.c.
It mostly favors group 2 metals.
Answer:
Mg(s) + 2H⁺(aq) ⟶ Mg²⁺(aq) + H₂(g)
Explanation:
A net ionic equation shows all the ionic substances as ions and shows the correct state of each substance.
The ion composition of Magnesium is 12,10, 2+.
Magnesium is a chemical element with symbol Mg and an atomic number 12, it has 12 protons, and 12 electrons with a chemical configuration of 2:8:2. It requires to loose two electrons to form a stable configuration forming a cation (positively charged ion) with a charge of +2 and a configuration of 2:8 ( 12 protons and 10 electrons).
Answer:
Because of the revolution of the moon about the earth.
Explanation:
The moon is the natural satellite of the earth; which rotates about its axes and orbits around the earth. As the moon orbits the earth with respect to time, it would complete a revolution in 27.3 days.
During revolution, different phases of the moon can be observed by someone on the earth. This is due to its location at different time during the process. Therefore, Jorge was able to see different phases of the moon because of its revolution about the earth.
