The correct answer is: Atoms are the building blocks that make up elements. At the center of each atom is a nucleus composed of small particles called protons and neutrons. Nuclei is the plural of nucleus; option C.

<h3>What is atomic number of an element?</h3>

The atomic number of an element is the number of protons present in the nucleus of the atom of the element.

The nucleus is the center of the atom and is the heaviest part of the atom.

Another sub-atomic particle fund in the nucleus is the neutron.

Elements are named according to the number of protons in the nuclei.. This is because the number of protons in the nucleus of any given atom whereas the neutron number may vary, Also, electrons are easily removed from atoms of elements.

In conclusion, the number of protos in atom is used to name the atom.

Balance <br><br> _Mg + _HCL = _MgCl2 + H2
Pavel [41]
_Mg + _HCL = _MgCl2 + H2
Separate the terms on each side: 

_Mg + _HCl = _MgCl2 + H2

Mg- 1                 Mg-1
               
H-1                    H-2

Cl-1                    Cl-2

Mg is balanced on both sides so move on to the next (put a 1 in the space). 

1Mg

There are two H's and two Cl's on the results side, so to balance the equation put a 2 as a coefficient for HCl and it'll all balance out.

2HCl

Balamced equation will be: 

 1Mg + 2HCL = 1MgCl2 + H2

The complete combustion of ethanol, c2h5oh(l), to form h2o(g) and co2(g) at constant pressure releases 1235 kj of heat per mole
likoan [24]

Since it was specifically stated that heat is released, therefore heat is located on the right side of the reaction equation. Also stating the states of each compound, the complete balanced reaction would be:

C2H5OH (l) + 3 02 (g) -----> 2 CO2 (g) + 3 H2O (g) + 1235 kJ
