Question:

can someone answer this chemistry question right ?

1.what kind of charge for the ionic bond be between aluminum and 2oxygen [Aluminum valence electron 3 and oxygen is 6}Aluminum can give a electron away to each oxygen bet then where would the extra electron go and why and what kind of charge is that

Answer:

The compound formed by reaction between aluminium and oxygen is aluminium oxide(Al2O3)So for the ionic bonding you have 2Al3+ ion and 3O2- ionThe reason for this is because you have 2 atoms of aluminium and 3 atoms of oxygenAlso you can check whether you are right or not by adding the charges which always equals to zero in ionic compoundfor example for Al2O3 you have +6 for aluminium and -6 for oxygen which gives you zero if you add these chargesHope this helped.
1Cover it in bubble wrap or something to protect it2Well that depends on how fast each man isbut mathematically it should take 20 hours since the number of workers were cut in half3A lot of fruit lol 4With a big crane or something.
