Identify the group of elements that corresponds to each of the following generalized electron configurations noble gasns2np5?
7A
Which group in the periodic table tends to form ions with a 2 charge?
An element should release two of its outermost electrons to obtain +2 ion. The elements in group 2A are the most likely elements to have this configuration. These are known as Alkali Earth Metals.The elements in the 2nd group have 2 valence electrons. Elements give away their valence electrons to get stable electron configuration. The elements in the 2nd group such as beryllium, magnesium, calcium, strontium, barium likely to have positive ion with charge of 2.Group II elements (the alkaline earth metals). This is because this particular group of elements have two extra electrons in their electronic configurations. They need to lose these two electrons to attain the stable noble gas configuration. So they will have a tendency to lose them to other atoms or group of atoms, in the process incurring a double positive charge (since there will now be two less electrons than protons). So Be, Mg and Ca will all form positive ions (cations) with a charge of +2. They are represented by Be2+, Mg2+ and Ca2+ respectively. But, other elements like copper and barium will also form cations of charge +2.
What do Two or more elements of opposite charge make when they combine?
If they have opposite charges, they attract each other, combine and form an ionic compound.
What elements are in the compound 'sulfuric acid - H2SO4'?
Each molecule of the compound, H2SO4, contains the following elements: Hydrogen (2 atoms), Sulfur (1 atom) Oxygen (4 atoms).
What is the charge on the most stable ion of each of the following elements F Br?
F^-1 and Br^-1
When elements are more stable in a combined formwhich forms?
Each element can form stable, less stable or unstable compounds.
What do radioactive elements gain when they emit radiation?
They become slightly more stable with each decay until they become stable and stop decaying.
What is the formula for an ionic compound that contains the elements magnesium and chlorine?
Magnesium ions have a 2+ charge, while chloride ions each have 1- charge. In order to cancel out the charges to create a stable, neutral compound, the formula must be MgCl2.
Why does sodium want to bond with chlorine?
It is because when these two elements bond with each other, each one gets an octet of electrons, which makes them stable.
What type of charge do ionic compounds have?
Positive, cation, +, or negative, anion, -
How do the numbers of protons and neutrons compare in stable atoms?
The majority of stable atoms have slightly more neutrons than protons, but the numbers are similar. The biggest exception is hydrogen, which has a stable isotope having one proton and no neutrons. Many of the lighter elements have stable isotopes in which the number of protons and the number of neutrons is the same. But as the elements get heavier, we increasingly find that stable isotopes have more neutrons than protons. This is an understandable pattern. Protons, all of which have a positive charge, repel each other. It is the neutrons which act as a kind of nuclear glue, holding the nucleus together against the repulsive force that protons exert on each other. As the nucleus gets bigger, more neutrons are needed to hold it together.

They where calm not nervous stable and got along with each other
Calcium has a plus 2 charge Fluoride has a -1 charge?
When these two elements form an ionic compound (either with each other or with any other elements) then those are the ions that they form, Ca+2 and F-1.
Define two what elements of the congressional committee system and explain how each influences the legislative process?
The following elements will not be able to be defined without knowing what the elements are. Information about what the elements are should be included.
The charge on a chloride ion in AICI3 is?
Each separate chlorine ion will have a charge of 1-. This is because chlorine has 7 valence electrons, so it needs one more electron to become stable.
