The answer to this question would be: BaCl 2
Barium is an alkali metal with 56 atomic number. Barium located in the group 2 of the periodic table because it has 2 valence electrons. Chlorine is a nonmetal that has 1 valence electron. When react, it would need 2 chlorine for each barium as the valence electron of barium is twice the chlorine.
