Answer:
Strontium, a group 2 element with an electron configuration of 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁶ 4s² 3d¹⁰ 4p⁶ 5s² , will form a +2 ion in a chemical bond.
Explanation:
An ionic bond is produced between metallic and non-metallic atoms, where electrons are completely transferred from one atom to another. During this process, one atom loses electrons and another one gains them, forming ions. Usually, the metal gives up its electrons forming a cation to the nonmetal element, which forms an anion.
So an ion is an atom or group of atoms that have an electric charge. A cation is an ion that has a positive charge.
The alkali metals in the earth (Elements IIA) lose two electrons to form a 2+ cation. Strontium is an alkali metal that loses the two electrons belonging to 5s², forming the +2 ion.
Answer:
The mass ratio of oxygen rounded to the nearest whole no. 3 : 2
Explanation:
According to Law of Multiple proportion when two elements combine to make two or more different compounds, the mass ratio of the two element in the first compound, when divided by the mass ratio of the second compound , form a simple whole number ratio.
Compound A contains 1.34 g of sulfur for every 0.86 g of oxygen
Compound B contains 11.63 g of sulfur for every 10.49 g of oxygen
Ratio of oxygen in each compound
always put the larger number over the smaller number.
ANSWER
The correct answer is A
EXPLANATION
Plants manufacture their on food by the process of photosynthesis. During this process, plants trap radiant energy from the sun by the help of chlorophyll in the leaves.
Radiant energy with other raw materials such as water, carbon dioxide and mineral salts is converted to food (in the form of starch) which contains chemical energy.
Yes, that's correct. It's the tepid latitude.
