Removal of the loosely bounded electron is defined by the ionization energy. Chlorine needs less energy to add electrons and has higher ionization power. Thus, option A is correct.
<h3>What is ionization energy?</h3>
The ability of an electron to accept or give electrons to another element in a chemical reaction by forming and creating bonds and the positive and negative charges has been defined by the ionization energy.
Magnesium has lower ionization energy than chlorine due to its large size and smaller nuclear charge. On the other hand, chlorine can easily add electrons to the valence shell which is almost full.
Therefore, option A. chlorine has higher ionization energy and can add electrons with minimum energy.

its exothermic. exothermic means the reaction gives out heat. [exo meaning outside and thermic meaning heat] because its a combustion reaction, fire is there meaning lots of heat.
endothermic means it takes in heat. a good example is ammonium and water (NH3 +H20)
<span>most chemical reaction are exothermic</span>
Answer: Although the best-known cause of a mass extinction is the asteroid impact that killed off the non-avian dinosaurs, in fact, volcanic activity seems to have wreaked much more havoc on Earth's biota. Volcanic activity is implicated in at least four mass extinctions, while an asteroid is a suspect in just one. Examples, of mass extinctions are Permian extinction of marine species, and Cretaceous extinction of various species, including dinosaurs.
