Answer:
Ionic bonding happens when an atom of an element gives one or more of its electrons to the other element's atom..it usually takes place between metal and non metal atoms...like in NaCl, Na gives its valence electron to chlorine and completes its own octet. Chlorine accepts the electron and completes its own octet too...but now both the atoms have an opposing charge and hence they attract each other to form an IONIC bond.
Ionic bonds are the strongest of the bonds...here complete transfer of electrons takes place unlike covalent bonds.

What's the problem ? Hardness is not the definition of a metal.
You need to expand your thinking. EVERY element is solid, liquid, and gas, over different ranges of temperature ... including all of the metals. There are only TWO elements that are liquid AT ROOM TEMPERATURE, and mercury is one of them. But on a mild day at the south pole, mercury is solid too.
Group 7a would have an ion charge of -1 because it has 7 valence electrons and it wants to gain one more electron(which is negative) to have a full shell of 8
Answer:

Explanation:
Question 7.
We can use the Combined Gas Laws to solve this question.
a) Data
p₁ = 1.88 atm; p₂ = 2.50 atm
V₁ = 285 mL; V₂ = 435 mL
T₁ = 355 K; T₂ = ?
b) Calculation

Question 8. I
We can use the Ideal Gas Law to solve this question.
pV = nRT
n = m/M
pV = (m/M)RT = mRT/M
a) Data:
p = 4.58 atm
V = 13.0 L
R = 0.082 06 L·atm·K⁻¹mol⁻¹
T = 385 K
M = 46.01 g/mol
(b) Calculation

When 1. 0 l of 0. 00010 m NaOH and 1. 0 l of 0. 0014 m mgso4 are mixed, there will be no precipitate formed.
<h3>What is a precipitate?</h3>
The precipitate is the solid concentration of a substance that is collected over a solution.
First, we determine the concentration of magnesium and hydroxide
(Mg2+) = 7.00 × 10⁻⁴
(OH−) = 5.00 × 10⁻⁵
Now, we calculate the solubility quotient
Qc = (Mg2+) (OH−) ²
Qc = 7.00 × 10⁻⁴ x (5.00 × 10⁻⁵)²
Qc = 1.75 x 10⁻¹²
The solubility product of the magnesium hydroxide is 1.80 x 10⁻¹¹ which is more than the solubility quotient. Thus, there will be no precipitate form.
Thus, there will be no precipitate formed because the solubility quotient we calculated is less than the solubility product.
