Question

the atomic number of the elements b and m are 12 and 17 respectively determine the molecular formula of the compounds formed when these two elements reacts with each other. Explain with the help 5 electron dot structures

Answer 1

Explanation-

element B is Mg (magnesium)

element M is Cl (chlorine)

electronic configuration-

B - 2,8,2

M - 2,8,7

therefore Magnesium ion is Mg2+

& chloride ion is Cl1-

When Mg and Cl will react, they will form MgCl2 (magnesium chloride), This is an example of ionic bond as there is a metal giving electrons and a non metal taking electrons.
