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.

The Lewis structure of P₄ is shown in 3-D form. The two bottom corner P atoms are facing right in front of us, one P atom behind the two, and one P above it. Each line represents 2 electrons. When you add the lone electrons, you get a total of 20 valence electrons.

Formal charge of each P:  5 - (2 +1/2*6) = 0

The same reaction is begun with an initial concentration of 0.05 M O3 and 0.02 M NO. Under these conditions, the reaction reache
Ivahew [28]
The balanced equation of the reaction is:

O3(g) + NO (g) → O2 (g) + NO2 (g)

Then the ratios of reaction is 1 mol O3 : 1 mol NO : 1 mol O2 : 1 mol NO2

If you have initially 0.05 M of O3 and 0.02 M of NO, the reaction will end when all the NO is consumed.

The by the stoichiometry 0.02 mol of O3 will be consumed in 8 seconds.

And the rate of reaction is change in concetration divided by the time.

The change in concentration in O3 is 0.02 M

Then, the rate respect O3 is 0.02 M / 8 seconds = 0.0025 M/s
