Answer: Magnesium Mg

Explanation:

Oxidization is the process by which a substance either gains oxygen or losses electrons.

The chemical reaction of the above is denoted by,

Mg(s) + 2HCl(aq) -----> MgCl2(aq) + H2(g)

Mg went from a 0 to a +2 state which would mean that it lost electrons.

It was therefore oxidized.

How much energy is contained in a particle that has a mass of m = 1 ug
Fudgin [204]

Answer:

90MJ

Explanation:

Energy= mc^2

Where c= speed of light

m= mass of the object

Mass= m = 1 ug ( then we need to convert from micro gram to micro Joule)= 0.000000001

C= 3× 10^8 m/s

E= = [0.000000001 × (3× 10^8 )^2]

E = [0.000000001 × 89 875 517 873 681]

= 89 875 517.9 joule

Then we can convert to megajoules as

90MJ
