Since Group 2 alkali earth metals have 2 valence electrons, they tend to lose those 2 when forming ionic bonds. And the Loss of Electrons = Oxidation (L.E.O. for short). Therefore this group, including Mg and Ca, have an oxidation of [+2].
So the correct answer is C) +2
It would be 35.8 Calories or calories. Not sure about that part. Hope this helps though.
A MOLECULE
A molecule is a true representative of a covalent bond.
Answer:
-608KJ/mol
Explanation:
3 C2H2(g) -> C6H6(g)
ΔHrxn = ΔHproduct - ΔHreactant
ΔHrxn= ΔHC6H6 - 3ΔHC2H2
ΔHrxn = 83 - 3(230)
ΔHrxn = -608
When organisms and plants died and sank to the bottom of swamps and oceans, brown soil-like materials called peat are formed. Over millions of years, the peat became covered with sand, clay and other minerals and the peat is converted into layers of sedimentary rocks. After a long time, different type of fossil fuels are formed.
