An atom represented by X forms a compound with the formula X3N2. The atom could be
A) Na
B) Al
C) Cs
D) Mg

D) Mg .

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, since compounds with the formula X3N2 suggest that the oxidation state of X is +2 because the oxidation state of nitrogen is -3 as it gains three electrons in order to attain a complete octet; among the given options, just magnesium (option D) Mg ) has such charge as it is in group 2A, which suggests it loses two electrons when forming ionic compounds:

  the   balanced   equation   for   reaction of   ca metal   with   o2 to   produce   cao   is as below

2 ca+ o2→ 2 cao2

  explanation

the reaction is   balanced     since the   number of atoms   in reactant side is   equal to   number of atoms   in   product side.   for   example   they   are 2   atom of   ca in   reactant   side   and   2   atoms of ca   in   the product side.

  the   process   is a   meet the   requirement   of   redox   reaction because :     calcium   is   oxidized   from   oxidation state 0   to 2+   while   oxygen   is reduced from   oxidation   state   0   to 2-
