Answer:

D.) Mg(NO₃)₂

Explanation:

Since magnesium (Mg) is a metal and nitrate (NO₃) is a polyatomic anion, they would combine to form an ionic compound. Magnesium would form the cation Mg²⁺ because it generally has 2 valence electrons. Nitrate always has a -1 charge.

In order for the overall compound to be neutral (have a charge of 0), there must be one Mg²⁺ and two NO₃⁻ ions in the compound (+2 + (-1) + (-1) = 0).

Therefore, the formula for the compound formed is Mg(NO₃)₂.

Explanation:

It is known that in a simple cubic unit cell the atoms are only present at the corner of the unit cell. This means that there are in total 8 atoms present in a simple cubic unit cell.

Therefore, in one simple cubic unit cell sharing of one atom is only \frac{1}{8}.

Hence, the total number of atoms in a unit cell will be as follows.

            8 \times \frac{1}{8} = 1

Thus, we can conclude that there is 1 calcium atom present in each unit cell.

Describe the method of steel manufacture used when removes the impurities carbon, phosphorus and sulfur​
melisa1 [442]

Explanation:

Steelmaking is the process of producing steel from iron ore and/or scrap. In steelmaking, impurities such as nitrogen, silicon, phosphorus, sulfur and excess carbon (most important impurity) are removed from the sourced iron, and alloying elements such as manganese, nickel, chromium, carbon and vanadium are added to produce different grades of steel.
