Magnesium element exists as single atoms. Free oxygen is always diatomic (two atoms bonded together) as O2. Nitrogen gas is also diatomic N2.

2Mg + O2 → MgO

Mg forms a +2 ion, O forms a -2 ion, so they combine and balance in a 1:1 ratio. MgO, magnesium oxide, is a solid. 
3Mg + N2→Mg3N2

Mg forms a +2 ion, but N forms a -3 ion. Hence the Mg3N2 configuration for magnesium nitride.

1. Calculate the momentum of a 1,500 kg car traveling at 6 m/s.
ziro4ka [17]

Answer:

1.9000kgm/s

2.258,000kgm/s

Explanation:

1.Momentum is given as the product of mass by velocity of an object.

Momentum,p=mv

m=1,500kh, v=6m/s

p=1500*6\\p=9000kgm/s

2.Momentum,p=mv

m=7800kg, v=30m/s

p_1=7800*30\\p_1=234,000kgm/s\\

new mass=7800+800=8600

As mass is increased, so does the resultant velocity as mass is directly proportional to velocity.

p_2=8600*30\\p_2=258,000kgm/s

Which group or groups of atoms are the only atoms with f orbitals A. All atoms heavier than barium B. All atoms heavier than kry
Mashcka [7]

Answer:

All atoms heavier than barium

Explanation:

In the periodic table, elements are divided into blocks. We have the;

s- block elements

p- block elements

d- block elements

f- block elements

However, immediately after Barium, we now encounter elements that have f-orbitals. Barium possesses a fully filled d-orbital. Hence after it, we see elements with 4f and 5f orbitals called the Lanthanides and actinides. The elements following the lanthanide and actinide series possess completely filled f-orbitals as inner orbitals.

Hence elements heavier than barium all possess f-orbitals.

An alkene X undergoes ozonolysis and gives two compounds Y and Z of molecular formula CaHO. Y and Z are functional isomers of ea
lys-0071 [83]

i. The given compound X is 2-methyl pent-2-ene. When it is reacted with ozone it forms an ozonide in the first step. In the second step the reduce to forms acetone and propanal.

ii. The structural formula of Y is CH_3-CO-CH_3 and Z is CH_3-CH_2-CHO.

iii. Alkenes, upon catalytic hydrogenation, form alkanes. This will occur in the presence of Nickel as the catalyst.

iv. The process of ozonolysis is useful in the field of pharmaceutics.

v. The test of unsaturation can be performed by passing a compound through Bromine water.

<h3>What is ozonolysis?</h3>

Ozonolysis is a reaction used in organic chemistry to determine the position of a carbon-carbon double bond in unsaturated compounds.

i. The given alkene X, that is subject to ozonolysis would be 2-methyl-2-pentene. Upon exposure to ozone, an ozonide is initially formed, after which it is broken down into 2 products - acetone and propanal, both with the molecular formula C₃H₆O.

The given compound X is 2-methyl pent-2-ene. When it is reacted with ozone it forms an ozonide in the first step. In the second step the reduce to forms acetone and propanal.

ii. The formulas of Y is CH_3-CO-CH_3 and Z is CH_3-CH_2-CHO. They are functional isomers as they have the same molecular formula but different functional groups - ketone and aldehyde.

iii. When alkenes undergo catalytic hydrogenation, they form alkanes, X will form 2 methyl petane on reaction with hydrogen gas in presence of Ni.

iv. The ozonolysis is used for the industrial-scale synthesis of pharmaceuticals.

v. The unsaturation of compound X can be proved by the bromine water test. As on reaction with it, the brown colour of bromine water becomes colourless due to the formation of dibromo alkane.

What quantity can be calculated for a solid compound, given only the formula of the compound and the periodic table of elements
gavmur [86]
When you have both of these ( The periodic table of elements and the formula of your compound) you are able to calculate the R.M.M ( Relative atomic mass) of that compound.
For example the formula of a NaCl ( Table salt ) has the elemnt Na and Cl.
We look at the atomic mass of both of these compounds
Na - 23
Cl - 35.5
R.M.M = 23 +35.5 = 58.5
Hope this helps :).
