Newton's second law of motion can be formally stated as follows:
The acceleration of an object as produced by a net force is directly proportional to the magnitude of the net force, in the same direction as the net force, and inversely proportional to the mass of the object.
This verbal statement can be expressed in equation form as follows:
a = Fnet / m
Answer : (C) Hafnium is the most likely identity of the given substance.
Solution : Given,
Mass of given substance (m) = 46.9 g
Volume of given substance (V) = 3.5 
First, find the Density of given substance.
Formula used :

Now,put all the values in this formula, we get
= 13.4 g/
So, we conclude that the density of given substance (13.4 g/
) is approximately equal to the density of Mercury and Hafnium (13.53 and 13.31 g/
respectively).
According to the question the substance is solid at room temperature but Mercury is liquid at room temperature. So, Mercury is not identical to the given substance.
Another element i.e, Hafnium is the element whose density is approximately equal to the given substance and also solid at room temperature. And we know that the melting point of solid is high.
So, Hafnium is the most likely element which is the identity of the given substance.

Atomic Mass will be 23 the new magnesium formed will be its isotope of magnesium.
We know that,
In stable condition
Number of electrons = Number of protons
Atomic number represents number of proton .
So, here number of proton is 12
Therefore, number of electron is 12
We know that -
Atomic mass = number of protons +Number of neutron
So if magnesium loses one neutron i.e. new number of neutron is 11
then its atomic mass changes.
New atomic mass will be
Atomic mass = 
Atomic mass = 23
This new element with atomic mass 23 and atomic number 12 is the isotope of magnesium.
