A significant figure is every symbol that made the number itself.

In this case, the number 40.00 has four figures but only two of them are significant 40, this is because you haven't got any more decimals than the first zero.

If you have a case with zeros in front, you take to the first non zero digits.

For example, 0.071004 you wold express as 0.071 and those 7, and 1 are the significant ones.

In the reaction between magnesium and sulfur, the magnesium atoms
Serggg [28]

Answer: Option (b) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Atomic number of magnesium is 12 and its electronic distribution is 2, 8, 2. Whereas atomic number of sulfur is 16 and its electronic distribution is 2, 8, 6.

So, in order to attain stability a magnesium atom needs to lose its 2 valence electrons and a sulfur atom needs to gain two electrons to completely fill its octet.

Hence, magnesium on losing two electrons will acquire a +2 charge and thus, it becomes a cation. On the other hand, sulfur on gaining two electrons will acquire a -2 charge and thus, sulfur will become an anion.

Thus, we can conclude that in the reaction between magnesium and sulfur, the magnesium atoms become cations.
