pashok25 [27]3 years ago
4 0
The electronic structure of Magnesium is 2,8,2
so in order to form a stable ions, it will lose 2 electrons.
Now, the proton number of Mg is 12, electron number is 10.
It will show positive charge.
Conclusion: Mg will lose 2 electrons to form Mg2+.

A certain gas at 2oC and 1.00 atm pressure fills a 4.0 container. What volume will the gas occupy at 100oC and 780 torr pressure
artcher [175]

The final volume V₂=4.962 L

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

T₁=20 + 273 = 293 K

P₁= 1 atm

V₁ = 4 L

T₂=100+273 = 373 K

P₂=780 torr=1,02632 atm

Required

The final volume

Solution

Combined gas law :

P₁V₁/T₁=P₂V₂/T₂

Input the value :

V₂=(P₁V₁T₂)/(P₂T₁)

V₂=(1 x 4 x 373)/(1.02632 x 293)

V₂=4.962 L

The extend of sewage treatment required mostly depends on the (A) Control of suspended solid (B) BOD of the sewage (C) Both a an
romanna [79]

The extent of sewage treatment required mostly depends on the control of suspended solids and BOD of the sewage. Hence, option C is correct.

<h3>What is Inorganic matter?</h3>

Inorganic matter is substances of mineral origin that are not characterized by primarily carbon-based structures.

Sewage treatment (or domestic wastewater treatment, municipal wastewater treatment) is a type of wastewater treatment which aims to remove contaminants from sewage to produce an effluent that is suitable for discharge to the surrounding environment or an intended reuse application, thereby preventing water pollution from raw sewage discharges.

The main goal of wastewater treatment facilities is to protect humans and the ecosystem from harmful and toxic elements found in wastewater.

Hence, option C is correct.

A highway engineer is researching de-icing compounds for clearing ice from streets in winter. She wants a compound that has +2 i
wolverine [178]

Magnesium combined with chlorine.

How?

  • Look at the question .Compound has -1 charge in it .Hence it contains Halogen.
  • Looking at the options Option B and C contain Iodine and chlorine i.e halogens .

Now come to metals side.

  • Potassium has valency 1(Look the Electronic configuration below)

\\ \sf\longmapsto 1s^22s^22p^63s^23p^64s^1

Hence it will contain +1 charge which is omitted directly .

Now come to option C.

  • Magnesium has charge +2(Look at EC below

\\ \sf\longmapsto 1s^22s^22p^63s^2

Hence the compound formed is given by

\\ \sf\longmapsto MgCl_2

Hence option C is correct.
