I dont get it someone please help
Answer: The property of magnesium that is exhibited by it is DUCTILITY. The correct option is A.
Explanation:
Magnesium is a member of the alkaline earth metals. It occurs in nature, only in the combined state, as Epsom salt, dolomite and in many trioxosilicates( IV) including talc and asbestos. They have the following physical properties:
--> Appearance: they are silvery-white solids
--> Relative density: It has a relative density of 1.74
--> DUCTILITY: it's very ductile in nature
--> melting point: it has a melting point of 660°C.
--> Conductivity: They are good conductor of heat and electricity.
Furthermore, DUCTILITY is the physical property of a metal associated with the ability to be hammered thin or stretched into wire without breaking. A metal such as magnesium can therefore be coiled as a thin ribbon without fracturing due to its ductile physical properties.
In 1 mole of magnesium there are Avogadro's number of atoms are present.
Avogadro's number = 6.023 x 10²³
1 mole = 6.023 x 10²³ atoms
3.75 moles = 3.75 x 6.023 x 10²³
=2.26 x 10²⁴
So, in 3.75 moles of magnesium there are 2.26 x 10²⁴ atoms of magnesium are present.
Correct answer is magnesium bromide. This is an ionic compound with metal forming a positive ion - K+ and halogen forming a negative ion - Br-. When group 7 element form ions they have a suffix -ide. Bromine is the element and when it forms a negative ion bromine is called bromide with the suffix.
Magnesium gives 2 electrons and bromine can take only 1 electron, therefore 2 bromine atoms are needed. Therefore magnesium forms ionic bonds with 2 bromine atoms.
The compound is called magnesium bromide
