Answer:
The common ion will be di-positive ion.
Explanation:
The ionization energy is defined as the amount of energy needed for removal of most loosely bound electron from an isolated atom in gaseous state.
The low ionization energy shows that the atom is able to give electron easily as after losing electron it may attain noble gas configuration or half filled stability.
Here the first and second ionization energy, both are low suggesting that the element is ready to give two electrons easily to form a di-positive ion however the third ionization energy is high which shows that it will not form tri-positive ion commonly.
Answer:
D. is the Answer. ✅
Explanation:
The Moon is 1/4 the size of Earth.
A is not right because Moon isn't a dwarf planet.❌
B is not right because the Moon isn't 1/2 the size of Earth.❌
C is not right because the Moon is no where near as large as Earth.❌
The answer is 2 electrons.
The electron configuration of calcium is 2:8:8:2
Calcium has two electrons in its outermost shell. These are its valence electrons and are the ones used in bonding with other elements. Valence electrons of an atom are those electrons that are in its outer energy shell or that are available for bonding.
Calcium is a metal. When metals react with non-metals, electrons are transferred from the metal atoms to the non-metal atoms forming ions. The resulting compound is known as an ionic compound.
For example, when calcium metal reacts with chlorine gas, calcium gives up its two valence electrons and Chlorine accepts them resulting in a new substance called calcium chloride in which the two elements have ended up forming ionic bonds.
