Explanation:
By losing or gaining electrons from its outermost orbit
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
Answer:
a solution color becoming less intense due to dilution- is not an evidence of a chemical reaction
bubbles (gas formation) - evidence of a chemical reaction
explosion or fire - evidence of a chemical reaction
changes in color- evidence of a chemical reaction
precipitation- evidence of a chemical reaction
changes in temperature - evidence of a chemical reaction
a solid liquifying - is not an evidence of a chemical reaction
solution colors mixing - is not an evidence of a chemical reaction
Explanation:
A chemical change is not easily reversible and yields new substances. It is often accompanied by a loss or gain of heat.
In the answer section, i have shown some evidences that lead us to conclude that a chemical reaction has taken place. The occurrence of a chemical change often goes with the formation of new substances as earlier stated and any of these signs may accompany the process.
For instance, when a metal is dropped in dilute acid solution, bubble of hydrogen gas indicates that a chemical reaction has taken place.
It's a compound because it's formed from an ionic bond between calcium and carbon so it's an ionic compound
C) the number of the pricipal energy level containing the outer electrons increases
