Answer: m Most likely Group2 metals and Group 17 non-ktta                                                                

Explanation:

A little more information is needed to be certain, but the likely answer is that X belongs to Group 2 and Y belongs to Group 17.  Group 2 metals (Be, Mg, Ca, Sr, Ba, etc.) are all divalent.  They gave rive up 2 electrons each to return to a full shell.  Group 17 elements (e,g, F, Cl, Br, I, etc.) all require 1 electron to reach a full valence shell.  That would make the proportion 1X to 2Y, or XY2.  It is possible that a metal outside of Group 2 would also have a valency of 2.  Iron(II) forms FeCl2, for example.

(i) The pH of HCl is between 0 and 2.
(ii) the presence of Carbon Dioxide turns lime water milky or sees a white precipitate form on the surface of the lime water.  Lime water is CaOH and when it reacts with Carbon Dioxide it forms a white solid (precipitate) Calcium Carbonate.

4. Balance the following chemical equation. Say what the coefficients "a"
lisabon 2012 [21]

Answer:

a = 4

b = 3

Explanation:

<u>SOLUTION :-</u>

Balance it by using 'hit & trial' method , and you'll get the answer :-

2Fe₂O + 3C → <u>4</u>Fe + <u>3</u>CO₂

⇒ a = 4 ; b = 3

<u></u>

<u>VERIFICATION :-</u>

<em>In reactant side of equation :-</em>

  • Number of atoms in Fe = 2×2 = 4
  • Number of atoms in O = 2×3 = 6
  • Number of atoms in C = 3×1 = 3

<em>In product side of equation :-</em>

  • Number of atoms in Fe = 4×1 = 4
  • Number of atoms in C = 3×1 = 3
  • Number of atoms in O = 3×2 = 6

Number of atoms of each element is equal in both reactant & product side of equation. Hence , the equation is balanced.

What is the test for identification of double bond?
kupik [55]

Answer:

Bromine water test

There are two tests to detect the presence of unsaturated double bond in an organic molecule, the bromine water test and Bayer's test. In the bromine water test, when the molecule is added to bromine water, bromine is added to the carbon atoms across the double bond.
