Answer:
The electronic configuration of the magnesium atom shows that it has two unpaired outermost shell electrons while that of oxygen shows that it has six outermost shell electrons with two of them unpaired.
By means of elecron transfer, magnesium atom donates its two electrons to the oxygen atom to now have a charge of +2 while the oxygen then has a charge of -2. This results in an ionic bonding between the two atoms.

Answer:
A balanced chemical equation follows law of conservation of mass. This law states that mass can neither be created nor be destroyed but it can only be transformed from one form to another form. This means that total mass on the reactant side is equal to the total mass on the product side.
It is a good thing that you already have answered the first question. Now, moving on to the second question, there exist an equation for the neutralization of acid by a base that is shown below,
M₁V₁ = M₂V₂
Now, all the variables in the equation are given except for our unknown which is the V₂. Substituting the known values from the given above,
(0.1 M)(25 mL) = (0.05 M)(V₂)
The value of V₂ from the equation above is 50 mL. Therefore, 50 mL of 0.05 M NaOH solution will be needed to completely react with HNO3.
The atoms are rearranged...
atoms AREN'T created or destroyed
Answer:
3.2 Calories
Explanation:
Here we will use a formula
Heat added in calories = Mass of glass x Increase in temperature x specific heat of glass
As we know that, specific heat is the amount of energy required to raise the temperature of one gram of any substance by 1°C. It has a constant value for every substance and for glass the specific heat is .16 calories/gm
Incorporating the values of mass (m), temperature(T) and specific heat (c) in formula.
calories (small calories) = l.0 g x 20 degrees x .16 calories/gm/°C
= 3.2 calories
Hope it helps:)
