it will lose six electrons.
In MgCl2 magnesium has +2 valence and chlorine has -1 valence. Since the molecule' tends to be neutral two (-1) charged Cl-ions combine with one (+2) Mg2+ion.
All elements in the 7th family/group (2nd from the right) on the Periodic Table.
Chlorine (Cl) is most likely to form a compound with magnesium in a one-to-one ratio to create magnesium chloride, which is a common ionic compound. Magnesium tends to lose two electrons to achieve a full outer shell, while chlorine tends to gain one electron.
Sulfur rock is typically yellow due to its chemical composition. Sulfur atoms absorb and reflect specific wavelengths of light that make it appear yellow. The color can vary depending on impurities present in the sulfur rock, but the pure form tends to be yellow.
No, magnesium and argon cannot form a compound as they are both noble gases and do not readily react with other elements to form compounds. Magnesium is a metal and tends to form ionic compounds, while argon is a noble gas and exists as single atoms due to its stable electronic configuration.
Magnesium and sulfur are likely to form an ionic bond because magnesium tends to lose electrons to form a positive ion, while sulfur tends to gain electrons to form a negative ion, creating an attraction between them. The other pairs are more likely to form covalent bonds due to similar electronegativities.
Ionic bond is expected between magnesium and sulfur because magnesium tends to lose two electrons to achieve a stable octet configuration, while sulfur tends to gain two electrons to complete its valence shell. This transfer of electrons from magnesium to sulfur results in the formation of an ionic bond between them.
Sulfur tends to burn, forming sulfur dioxide, which combines with water to form sulfuric acid, so in practice, sulfur leads to acidity. But it is not in itself an acid.
In MgCl2 magnesium has +2 valence and chlorine has -1 valence. Since the molecule' tends to be neutral two (-1) charged Cl-ions combine with one (+2) Mg2+ion.
All elements in the 7th family/group (2nd from the right) on the Periodic Table.
The bond between chromium and sulfur is typically an ionic bond. Chromium tends to lose electrons to form a positive ion, while sulfur tends to gain electrons to form a negative ion, resulting in electrostatic attraction between the two ions.
sulfur is more reactive than selenium
Sulfur powder tends to burn more easily than paper, charcoal, or even matchsticks.
Chlorine (Cl) is most likely to form a compound with magnesium in a one-to-one ratio to create magnesium chloride, which is a common ionic compound. Magnesium tends to lose two electrons to achieve a full outer shell, while chlorine tends to gain one electron.
In magnesium chloride (MgCl2), magnesium has an oxidation number of +2, while chlorine has an oxidation number of -1. Magnesium tends to lose two electrons to achieve a stable octet configuration, while chlorine tends to gain one electron to achieve a full outer shell.
Sulfur does not have cleavage because it is not a mineral. Instead, sulfur has a non-crystalline or amorphous structure. When broken, it tends to fracture along irregular surfaces rather than cleave along specific planes.
