What are the formulas for magnesium oxide and strontium oxide?
The chemical formula for magnesium oxide is MgO. Magnesium has valency +2 and oxygen has -2. So, magnesium donates two electrons and oxygen gains two electrons to form ionic bond.The chemical formula for strontium oxide is SrO. Strontium has valency +2 and oxygen has -2. So, strontium donates two electrons and oxygen gains two electrons to form ionic bond.
How many electrons does strontium have in its sublevel?
Strontium has 38 electrons. (Protons and electrons are the same)
The formula unit for strontium chloride SrCl2 indicates that?
The formula unit indicate that this unit has 1 atom of strontium and two atoms of chlorine.
Which two physical properties can together be used to distinguish a particular mineral from all others?
chemical composition and crystalline structure
What would react more vigorously with water strontium or calcium?
Strontium. They both have two electrons in their outermost energy level, however since the electrons are farther from the nucleus in Strontium than in Calcium, Strontium is more readily able to shed these two electrons to achieve a more stable state with it's outermost energy level being complete (with 8 electrons).
Two examples of chemical properties are what?
what are two example of chemical properties-^lyour dumb anyway two examples are oxidation and combustibility. and flammability and pH
What are two examples of chemical properties and why are they chemical properties?
There are multiple chemical properties. The pH level measures the amount of hydronium ions present, as in gauging bases, neutrals and acids. Reactivity from the oxidation, that is the rusting of iron is another example of a chemical property.
Name two properties of minerals that depend on chemical bonds?
Examples: chemical reactivity, toxicity, flammability, stability.
What are two elements that have similar properties to the element calcium?
Calcium shares properties with Magnesium and Strontium.
What are two chemical properties of a sheet of paper?
Chemical properties of paper can include flammability/nonflammability or decompostition/lack of decompostition at high temperature.
What are two physical properties and two chemical properties of a bag of microwave popcorn before popping and after?
Physical properties of a bag of microwaveable popcorn are the mass of it, the color of it, the size of it, and the weight of it. Two chemical properties of a bag of microwavable popcorn are it changed from seeds to popcorn and it popped.
Name 2 chemical properties?
the physical properties-the color of the popcorn ,the mass of it ,,the size,,the weight,,and the shape ,, .........chemical properties-it poped it change from seeds to popcorn.....
Does a mixture have one or two sets of chemical properties?
it has 2 sets of chemical properties
Define and give examples of chemical properties?
A physical property doesn't depend strongly on the ratio of chemicals. Nuclear properties have to do with the nucleus of atoms. Chemical properties depend on the specific ratio of the chemicals involved. Burning is a chemical event. Two hydrogens are consumed for every one of oxygen in the creation of water.
What are the formulas for magnesium oxide and strontium oxide?
The chemical formula for magnesium oxide is MgO. Magnesium has valency +2 and oxygen has -2. So, magnesium donates two electrons and oxygen gains two electrons to form ionic bond.The chemical formula for strontium oxide is SrO. Strontium has valency +2 and oxygen has -2. So, strontium donates two electrons and oxygen gains two electrons to form ionic bond.
What three elements have the most similar physical and chemical properties?
Magnesium, strontium , and barium belong to group 2A of the periodic table. These have two valence electrons in their outermost shell. So these three elements have similar chemical properties. But the other given elements do not lie in same group so they have different chemical properties.
What is the compound formula for Strontium Nitrate?
The chemical formula for strontium and nitrogen is Sr3N2.
