Why group 1 and group 2 form many compound with group 16 and 17?

∙ 7y ago
Group 1 and 2 elements have 1 and 2 valence electrons respectively. Removal of these electrons will result in stable noble gas electronic configuration. Group 17 and 16 elements have 7 and 6 valence electrons respectively. Addition of 1 or 2 electrons to group 17 and 16 respectively will give them stable noble gas configuration.
Hence these two groups are highly reactive and their elements will combine to form large number of compounds.

∙ 11y agoBetween groups 16, 17; polar covalent bond, for example F2O.
With metals - mainly ionic bonds as these groups contain principally non -metals (only tellurium and polonium are metalloids)
with hydrogen covalent bonds

∙ 11y agogroup 1 and 2 are electorpositive elements(metals) so they readilly reacts with group 16 and 17 elements which are electronegative(non-metals).

What element will bond to form an ionic compound with K?
Potassium will form ionic compound with group 17 elements (fluorine, chlorine, bromine, iodine) and group 16 elements (oxygen, sulphur, selenium).
Does sodium oxide form an ionic compound with the formula of the type x2y?
Yes, with group 16 elements. Sodium oxide can be given as an example.
2 nonmetals from group 16 are likely to form what?
Oxygen form oxides and sulfur form sulfides.
Explain Why Groups 1 and 2 form many compounds with Groups 16 and 17?
Their valance electrons form an octet. Each compound wants to have 8 valence electrons (which forms an octet). Groups 1 and 2 have 1 and 2 valence electrons respectively. 16 and 17 have 6 and 7 respectively. So together, they form 8.
Which pair of elements is more likely to form ionic compounds?
Group 1 or group 2 elements with group 16 or group 17 elements. In general, if the electronegativity difference between the two atoms is more than 1.7 in Pauling's scale, then the two atoms form ionic bond.

Yes, with group 16 elements. Sodium oxide can be given as an example.
When Barium and Oxygen react to form an ionic compound does Barium atoms lose 2 electrons and form a cation?
Yes! Barium is a group 2 metal and so loses two electrons. Oxygen is a group 16 non metal and will readily pick up two electrons. So, they form BaO.
If 3 grams of element C combine with 8 gram of element D to form compound CD how many grams of D are needed to form compound CD2?
You are doubling the amount of D, so 8*2 = 16 grams of D required.
2 nonmetals from group 16 are likely to form what?
Oxygen form oxides and sulfur form sulfides.
How we write 16 divided by 3 in the form of compound fraction?
5.3333
What group might group 16 most readily react with?
For the most part, Group 16 forms -2 ions, therefore they most readily bond with Group 2, which primarily form +2 ions.
What group of elements gain two valence electrons when the atom form ionic bond?
Group 16 or the chalcogens.
Where can you find the six elements in an organic compound in the periodic table?
carbon (group 14, period 2) hydrogen (group 1, period 1) nitrogen (group 15, period 2) oxygen (group 16, period 2) sulphur (group 16, period 3) halogens (group 17, period 2-5)

What group is oxygen?
Oxygen is in group 16 or group 6A
