The element is Magnesium

  • It has total 12 electrons

it has electronic configuration

\\ \sf\longmapsto 2,8,2

or

\\ \sf\longmapsto 1s^22s^22p^63s^2

In valence cell it has 2 electrons and therefore its valency is 2

enot [183]

Answer:

The correct answer is option (B) Two molecules of H2 and a molecule of O2 must collide at one time

Explanation:

2H2(g) + O2(g) → 2 H2O(g)

   2             1            2

Considering the given reaction, for water molecule to be form, two molecules of hydrogen and one molecule of oxygen must collide at the same time. The product obtained from the collision is two molecules of water as steam. 2 H2O(g)

vladimir1956 [14]

Answer:

They reduce the bond angle to be slightly lower than the tetrahedral bond angle, approximately 104.45 degrees.

Explanation:

The unshared pair of electrons or lone pair electrons in order to have the minimum repulsion possible with each other pushes the other bonding pairs closer together making the bond angle smaller or bent.

The bond angle is slightly lower than the tetrahedral bond angle of 108 degrees, leaving the water molecule with a bent molecular geometry.
