Aluminum is a metal and its oxidation state is +3. That means that it may lose three electrons and form cation Al +3. So the correct answer is option A. threee electrons are lost creating Al +3.

You can base your answer in the fact is in the group 13, that means that it has 3 electrons in its valence shell. Those are the three electrons that it can lose to form Al +3.

Also, you can search for the atomic number and do its electron configuration.

Z Al = 13 => 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p1. So, the electrons 3s2 3p1 are the three electrons that it can lose to form Al +3.

Three electrons are lost, creating AL+3! (So the correct answer is A.)

I can confirm this because I took the test! :D

Hope that helped!

Cheers, mate!

Pieces of one rock unit contained within another are called
tino4ka555 [31]

The correct answer is - intrusive rocks.

The intrusion is a process in which the rising magma in the Earth's crust, manages to break through pre-existing layers of rock, and after that cool off, solidify, and create new intrusive igneous rocks. By doing so, the magma is breaking up the layers of rocks, thus the intrusive igneous rocks that are forming from it, come to be inside totally different rock units. The intrusions are always happening inside the crust, and the rocks formed from them are igneous rocks that have large crystals because of the slow cooling off of the magma.

Answer:

0.337 dm³

Explanation:

M(K2CO3) = 138.2 g/mol

1) 11.7 g * (1 mol/138.2 g) =0.08466 mol

2) 0.08466 mol * (1 dm³/0.25 mol) = 0.3386 dm³ ≈ 0.337 dm³

What is the color of the flame when magnesium burns in air ​
vfiekz [6]

Answer:

Will u give me brainliest

white

In its pure form, it is silvery white, and relatively soft. It burns in air with a brilliant white light, and for this reason is often used in flares and fireworks. Magnesium is used in disposable flash bulbs to generate light for photography, but this use has been largely supplanted by other sources of illumination
