The correct formula for magnesium nitrate?
Question 12 options:

MgNO3

Mg2NO3

Mg(NO3)2

Mg2(NO3)2

Mg(NO3)2

Explanation:

Look at the charges of the cation and anion. Mg has a +2 charge while NO3 has a -1 charge. You’ll need 2 NO3 molecules to cancel the charge of Mg for a neutral compound. This is how they should be balanced unless they give a total charge in the question.

120,630,890

step-by-step explanation:

110+10=120,620+10=630,880+10=890

alkaline metals are lithium, sodium, rubidium, potassium, cesium and francium.

alkali metals have electronegativity from 0.7 to 1, lowest in periodic table of elements, which means that alkali metals (i group in periodic table) has positive oxidation number in compounds.

electronegativity is a chemical property that describes the tendency of an atom to attract a shared pair of electrons towards itself.

alkaline metals (far left in main group) have lowest ionizations energy and easy remove valence electrons,

for example, potassium is the alkali metal and has a single valence electron in the outer electron shell.

electron configuration of potassium is: ₁₉k 1s²2s²2p⁶3s²3p⁶4s¹.

they can not exist alone in nature, because they are very reactive.
