(g)

Answer to Problem 13E
Explanation of Solution
Given Info: Refer to the periodic table figure 11.24.
Explanation:
Carbon belongs to the group 4A. Elements of group 4A have 4 valence electrons and 4 electrons less than noble configuration. Elements of group 4A do not form ions generally because it is very difficult to gain or lose 4 electrons to complete the octet.
Thus, the elements of group 4A have an ionic charge of
Conclusion:
Therefore, the ionic charge for carbon
