What else can I help you with?
If x stands for a metal how can you tell from the following formulas xcl and xcl2 which compound contains an alkali metal and which contains an alkaline earth metal?
In the formulas xCl and xCl2, the subscript "2" in xCl2 indicates that the compound contains a divalent metal, which is characteristic of alkaline earth metals. Alkali metals typically form compounds with a 1+ charge, so xCl would likely contain an alkali metal. Alkali metals are found in Group 1 of the periodic table, while alkaline earth metals are found in Group 2.
What element forms an ionic salt?
An ionic salt is typically formed from the reaction between a metal and a nonmetal element. When a metal atom donates its electrons to a nonmetal atom, they form positively and negatively charged ions that are attracted to each other, resulting in the formation of an ionic salt.
What is the largest natural element?
Bismuth Francium has the largest atom - the greatest atomic radius.
What is the largest and smallest atom on the periodic table?
Smallest atom is hydrogen Largest atom is Francium
What is the overall charge of Beryllium atom?
The overall charge of a beryllium atom is neutral, meaning it has the same number of protons (+) in the nucleus as it does electrons (-) surrounding the nucleus. Beryllium has 4 protons and typically 4 electrons, resulting in a neutral charge.
Is beryllium alkali metal or transition metal or ordanairy metal or non metal?
Berillium (Be atom number 4) is a metal, to be more precise it is the first of the alkaline earth metals, group 2 of the periodic table: Be, Mg, Ca, Sr, Ba, Ra
Which element is in both the alkaline earth family and period five?
atom
What supscripts would be used if an alkaline earth metal and a non metal from group 6a formed an ionic compound?
Usually no subscript would be used, because an alkaline earth metal usually forms a divalent cation and a nonmetal from Group VI(A) forms a divalent anion. As a consequence, the formula unit for such a compound would normally contain only one atom of each type, so that no subscript would be needed.
How many electrons are in the outer level of atoms of alkaline earth metals?
You mean valence electron? 2 If your talking about Bohr Diagrams then it depends on the metal
What element is a alkaline metal and has 2 electrons?
The element (neutral atom) with two electrons would be helium, which is a noble gas. I believe the question you are asking is, what element is an alkaline earth metal with 2 valence electrons? The answer to that question is, there are a half dozen of these elements in Group 2A. The two most commonly known elements are magnesium and calcium.
What is the largest atom in row 5?
It is the rubidium metal. it is in the first group.
Which atom has two more electrons than an atom of a noble gas?
The Alkaline Earth metal which comes just after the noble gas
Used for years in self-luminous paint for glow-in-the-dark clock faces and in radiological treatment for cancer One atom of this alkaline earth metal has as many protons as there are keys on a piano?
Radium. I think.

In the formulas xCl and xCl2, the subscript "2" in xCl2 indicates that the compound contains a divalent metal, which is characteristic of alkaline earth metals. Alkali metals typically form compounds with a 1+ charge, so xCl would likely contain an alkali metal. Alkali metals are found in Group 1 of the periodic table, while alkaline earth metals are found in Group 2.
How does the formulas of the oxides formed by alkaline earth metals compare with those of lead?
When we look at the electron configuration we can make a comparison betwwen an alkine earth metal and lead oxide. Alkine earth when oxidised will become neutral and form a salt. When lead is oxidised the hydrogen atom is not included and will therefore not form a salt, this will result in the lead oxide not becoming a neutral atom but it will become an ion having a charge of -2
What is the correct name for Ca2?
The correct name for Ca²⁺ is calcium ion. It is formed when a calcium atom loses two electrons, resulting in a positively charged ion. Calcium is an alkaline earth metal and plays a crucial role in various biological and chemical processes.
What is the smallest and largest atom on the periodic table?
Smallest atom is hydrogen Largest atom is Francium
