The electronic configuration of metal M ...

The electronic configuration of metal M is `1s^(2)2s^(2)2p^(6)3s^(1).` The formula of its oxide will be :

A

MO

B

`M_(2)O`

C

`M_(2)O_(3)`

D

`MO_(2)`.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

`M : 1s^(2) 2s^(2) 2s^(6)3s^(1)`. Thus M (Z = 11) is Na-an alkali metal. Its valence is +1, therefore its oxide has the formula `M_(2)O`.
