Answer:

[Cl-18]⁻ & [Cl-20]⁻

Explanation:

By definition isotopes are elements with the same number of protons by different number of neutrons. Elements X-18 & X-20 have 17 protons and represent Chlorine isotopes Cl-18 & Cl-20 each with 17 protons and 18 electrons to give the isotopes a -1 oxidation state. Both isotope of chlorine have 7 electron in its valence shell and 10 electrons in its core structure.  Gaining 1 electron fills the valence octet and establishes a -1 oxidation state.

Element X has the following valence electron configuration: [core]ns2np5. Element M has the following valence electron configura
alex41 [277]

Answer:

The kind of ionic compound formed is MX2.

Explanation:

Element X electron  configuration is represented as [core] ns2np5. The group in the periodic table this element belong to is group 7A.  The element group is called the halogen family. Element X cannot be stated specifically, because the number is represented with n.  Element X will behave as an anions when it react with a metal(cations). Element X has a charge of -1. The element X will gain electron when it bond with a metal. Element X is a non metal . Elements  in this group are fluorine, chlorine, bromine, iodine , astatine, and tennessine . The element X have 7 valency electrons.

Element M electronic configuration is represented as  [core]ns2. The group in the periodic table this element belong to is group 2A . The element  group is called the alkaline earth metals family . Element M will behave as a cation when it bond with a non metal. Element M is a metal , therefore it will likely lose electron to form cations during bonding . The charge of element M is 2+. Element M is positively charged. Elements that belong to this group includes beryllium, magnesium, calcium, strontium, barium and radium.  Element M has 2 valency electrons.

The reaction between this 2 ions will likely form an ionic compound . The element M is the cations while the element X is the anions. The element M will lose 2 electron while 2 atoms of element  X will gain 2 electrons.Element M will lose 2 electron to attain a stable configuration while 2 atoms of element X will gain a single electron each to attain a stable configuration.

M²+ and F- . This will form MX2 when you cross multiply the charge. The kind of ionic compound formed is MX2.

The density of Mg is 1.74g/cm3. The density of strontium is 2.60g/cm3. What would you expect the density of Ca to be?
Tomtit [17]

The density of Ca will be between that of Mg and Sr

Explanation:

Ca, Mg and Sr are group II elements. They are called alkali earth metals. The correct order of the elements in this group are: Be, Mg, Ca, Sr, Ba and Ra.

Density is an intensive property of matter which describes the amount of matter(mass) per volume of a substance.

  • Density varies proportionally with mass. The higher the mass, the higher its density.
  • On the periodic table, atomic mass which the number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus of an atom increases down the group.
  • This implies a progradation in the value of density down the group. Therefore one expects that the value of density of Ca will fall between that of Mg and Sr. It cannot be more than 2.6g/cm³ nor less than 1.74g/cm³.
