In the formation of compound between two atoms A and B, A loses two electrons and B gains one electron.
(i) What is the nature of bond between A and B?
(ii) Suggest the formula of the compound formed between A and B and explain the formation of the compound using electron dot structure.
Answers
Explanation:
A) 1.ionic
A) 1.ionic2.AB2
A) 1.ionic2.AB2B)Mg has 2 electrons in its outermost shell so looses 2 electrons to attain stability to 2 Cl each as Cl has 1 electron less in its outermost shell. Hence Mg2+ reacts with 2Cl- to give MgCl2.
C) common salt conduct electricity only in molten state because ions are free to move and conduct electricity.
D) as the size of Na ion and Cl ion is small so bond formation between NaCl is too strong. For dissociation of NaCl, large amount of heat is required. Therefore, melting point of NaCl is high.
