Answer:

a) the element belongs to group 2

b) see image attached

c) Magnesium

d) X3N2

Explanation:

Any ion with the formula X^2+ was derived from group 2 elements. The group two element found in period 3 is magnesium alone.

Since the nitride ion has a valency of -3 and X^2+ has a valency of +2 , then a compound formed between X^2+ and the nitride ion will have the formula X3N2.
