Question

the atomic number of the element M and B are 12 and 17 respectively determine the molecular formula of the compound formed when these two elements react with each other explain the type of bond is formed between these two seater help of electron dot structure​

Answer 1

Explanation:

Mmagnesium as atomic number 12

chlorine as atomic number 17

molecular formula ,- Mg -12, 2,8,2 - mg +2

cl-17 - 2,8,7, cl-

when they combined together (MgCl2 )

Mg+2 ×cl- ------ MgCl2

The type of Bond in is-- ionic bond means the transfer of electrons from metal to nonmetal .

Answer 2

Explanation:

M is Magnesium ( 2,8,2 )

B is chlorine ( 2,8,7 )

When these two compounds react:-

Mg + Cl2 ---> MgCl2

When these two elements react, ionic bond will be formed
