Answer:
E²⁺
Explanation:
The group two contain alkaline earth metals.
There are six elements in group 2A.
Beryllium, Magnesium, calcium, strontium, barium and radium.
All members have two valance electrons.
They lose two valance electrons to complete the octet.
When they lose the two valance electrons they form cation X²⁺.
They react with halogens and form salt such as
MgCl₂, CaCl₂ etc.
Mg²⁺ Cl²⁻₂
The oxidation state of halogens are -1, while the elements of group two A shows +2 that's why two atoms of halogen are combine with one atom of alkaline earth metals and make the compound overall neutral.
All the alkaline earth metals have similar properties.
PH is the test of acidity or basicity of a solution. it follows the formula:
pH = pKa + log [salt] / [acid] where NaF is the salt and HF is the acid in this case.
By literature, Ka of HF is 3.5*10^-4
<span>pKa= -log(Ka)=</span><span> 3.46 </span>
<span>pH = pKa + log [NaF / [HF] </span>
4.05 = 3.46 + log [NaF / [HF]
log [NaF / [HF]<span> = 0.59
</span>
[NaF / [HF] = 3.89
0.295 * 203 = 53.885
0.705 * 205 = 144.525
53.885 + 144.525 = 204.41
The relative atomic mass of Thallium is 204.41
Some chemical changes can be reactive through another chemical change?
