Which element is found in period 3, group 2?
2 answers:
Answer: Magnesium (Mg)
Explanation:
I attached a copy of a periodic table for reference.
When we look at the periodic table, go across to group 2 (Alkali Earth Metals) and then down to period 3, where we find Magnesium.
Interestingly, we could also gain this information from Magnesium's spdf electronic configuration: 1s²2s²2p⁶3s². With this, '3' tells us the period, and '²' tells the group.

Hi there!
Recall the equation for electric potential of a point charge:
V = Electric potential (V)
k = Coulomb's Constant(Nm²/C²)
Q = Charge (C)
r = distance (m)
We can begin by solving for the given electric potentials. Remember, charge must be accounted for. Electric potential is also a SCALAR quantity.
Upper right charge's potential:
Lower left charge's potential:
Add the two, and subtract from the total EP at the point:
The remaining charge must have a potential of 2036.25 V, so:
Answer:
A.3.13x10^14 electrons
B.330A/m²
C.9.11x10^5N/C
D. 0.23W
