The value of ΔG° (gibbs free energy change)of the given reaction is -1131.94kj .

Given ,

Balanced chemical equation is given by,

2Mg(s) + O2 (g) → 2MgO (s)

Here , the standard enthalpy of Mg and O2 gas are zero because they are in the most stable state .

thus , the value of ΔG°rxn is given by ,

ΔG°rxn = ΔG°(products ) - ΔG°(reactants )

ΔG°rxn = [2×(-565.97 )] - 0

ΔG°rxn = 2×(-565.97)

ΔG°rxn = -1131.94kj

Hence , the value of ΔG° of the given reaction is -1131.94kj .

<h3>What is a balance chemical reaction ?</h3>

A balanced chemical reaction is a type of reaction which include the reactants and products in same amount i.e. the no of mole on both side of the reaction is remains same or balanced .

Which metal atoms can form ionic bonds by losing electrons from both the outermost and next to outermost principal energy levels

RoseWind [281]

Full question options;

(Fe, Pb, Mg, or Ca)

Answer:

Iron - Fe

Explanation:

We understand tht metals pretty much form bonds by losing their valence (outermost electrons). But this question specifically asks for metals that lose beyond their outermost electrons; next to outermost principal energy levels.

Pb, Mg, and Ca only lose their outermost electrons to form the following ions;

Pb2+, Mg2+, and Ca2+.

This is because their ions have achieved a stable octet configuration - the dreamland of atoms where they are satisfied and don't need to go into reactions again.

Iron on the other hand has the following electronic configurations;

Fe: [Ar]4s2 3d6

Fe2+: [Ar]4s0 3d6

Fe3+: [Ar]4s0 3d5

This means ion can lose both the ooutermost electrons (4s) and next to outermost principal energy levels (3d). So correct option is Iron.

An atom that has one or two valence electrons is most likely to be - Nonreactive only

meriva

Answer:

C) Highly reactive

Explanation:

An atom with one or two valence electrons more than a closed shell is highly reactive, because the extra valence electrons are easily removed to form a positive ion

Which 2 elements when combined NOT alloys?

Volgvan

Answer:

Oxygen and sulfur

Explanation:

Alloys consist of metals fused together sometimes with additional components, such as carbon, to prevent metals from corrosion.

Oxygen and sulfur are two compounds consisting of non-metal atoms, O and S. Combining oxygen with sulfur would actually produce sulfur dioxide, a gas, in contrast to a metallic substance that is fused with some other metal or carbon.

That's the reason why combination of sulfur and oxygen wouldn't produce an alloy: it would produce a gas.
