Group 2A elements typically lose 2 electrons when forming ions.
Metals with two electrons in the outer energy level are typically found in Group 2 of the periodic table, known as the alkaline earth metals. Examples include beryllium and magnesium. These metals tend to form 2+ cations by losing their outer electrons to achieve a stable electron configuration.
Simply divide the voltage by the current. This means you apply Ohm's Law.
The dimensional formula of magnetic flux is [M^1 L^2 T^-2 I^-1].
The magnitude of the electric field intensity due to a dipole of length 2a at the midpoint of the line joining the two charges is given by: ( E = \frac{k \cdot p}{a^{3}} ), where ( E ) is the electric field intensity, ( k ) is the Coulomb constant, ( p ) is the dipole moment, and ( a ) is the length of the dipole.
The dimensions of magnetic field are given in units of Tesla (T), which is equivalent to kg/s^2A. Magnetic field is a vector quantity with both magnitude and direction.
Group 2A elements tend to GAIN electrons!!
Yes
When Group 2A elements form ions they lose the electrons in their outer shell. In doing so they form positive ions known as cations.
Group 2A elements (alkaline earth metals) tend to lose two electrons to form 2+ ions. This is because they have two valence electrons and tend to achieve a stable electron configuration similar to noble gases by losing those two electrons.
loses 2 electrons to achieve a noble gas configuration
These metal may lose two electrons.
Group 6A elements have a higher electronegativity and a greater tendency to gain electrons to achieve a stable octet configuration. In contrast, Group 2A elements have a lower electronegativity and typically lose electrons to form cations.
The ionic charge of a group 1A, 2A, or 3A ion is determined by the number of electrons lost or gained to achieve a full valence shell. Group 1A ions lose 1 electron to attain a +1 charge, group 2A ions lose 2 electrons for a +2 charge, and group 3A ions lose 3 electrons for a +3 charge.
Lose 2Alkaline-earth metals have 2 outer shell electrons. All atoms "want" eight. They will achieve a full outer shell by losing or gaining the least number of electrons. Since group 2A elements have two valence electrons, they would either have to gain 6 electrons or lose 2. It is easier to lose 2.
Group 2A * Known as Alkaline earth elements * All are metals * Occur only in compounds * React with oxygen in the general formula EO (where O is oxygen and E is Group 2A element)
The entire Group 2A has 2 valence electrons; this includes sodium and calcium.
Elements in group 2A of the periodic table have two valence electrons. This group includes elements such as beryllium, magnesium, calcium, strontium, barium, and radium.
