Answers
Answer:
Aluminium
symbol - Al brooooooooooooooooooooooooooooii
Given:
Atomic number of element 'X' = 13
(a) Electronic configuration:
To write the electronic configuration of the element, its atomic number is required.
From the atomic number, the element 'X' is identified as Aluminium.
Its electronic configuration is 1s^22s^22p^63s^23p^11s 2 2s 2 2p 6 3s 2 3p 1.
(b) Group
Element 'X' which is identified as aluminium belongs to group 13 of the periodic table.
(c) Metallic character
Element 'X' is metal.
(d) Bromide of aluminium
When aluminium reacts with bromine it leads to the formation of a compound called aluminium bromide and its chemical formula is AlBr_3AlBr
3
.
The chemical equation involved in the reaction is as follows:
2Al+3Br_2\rightarrow2AlBr_32Al+3Br
2 →2AlBr 3
