Magnesium loses 2 electrons. Which reaction represents the oxidation of magnesium?

1 answer:

6 0

The particular reaction that represents the oxidation of Mg metal would be the following:

Mg => Mg+2 + 2e-

This is the half reaction of the oxidation of the magnesium metal, another charged species would need to receive it to become reduced or gain the 2 electrons lost.

Answer:

357.475

Explanation:

First you need periodic table and you have to look for mass

Fe = 3 x 55.845 = 167.535

P = 2 x 30.97 = 61.94

o = 4 x 2 so 8 oxygen = 8 x 16 = 128

add all and you get 357.475

2.) Average atomic mass =Σ (abundance x molar mass) /100 = (12.64 x 302.04 + 18.23 x 304.12 + 69.13 x 305.03) /100 =304.486 u(Dalton) . This is avg atomic mass.
