plzzz give me answer fast plzz plzz. fast urgent work ​

Answer 1

we have to explain the formation of ionic compound Al₂O₃ with electron dot structure.

solution : atomic no of Al = 13

so electronic configuration of Al = 2, 8, 3

atomic no of O = 8

so electronic configuration of O = 2, 6

from octet rule,

Al is an electron donor element and O is electron accepter element. because after losing 3 electron Al completes its octet and after gaining 2 electron O complete its octet.

we know, ionic bond is formed by sharing of electrons. here 2 aluminium atoms donates 2 × 3 = 6 electrons to 3 oxygen atoms.

see figure, after sharing electrons, both elements fulfill their octet and form Al₂O₃ ionic compound.
