At 50 degrees Celsius and standard pressure inter-molecular forces of attraction are strongest in a sample of ethanoic acid.
Ethanoic acid has hydrogen atom bonded with a more electronegative atom; Oxygen. As a result, the molecule possesses strong intermolecular Hydrogen Bonds. Therefore; ethanoic acid, and all other carboxyllic acids have the tendency to form dimers.
D.) Balanced equation is Zn + 2HBr - - - > ZnBr2 + H2.
Pure magnesium's formula would just be Mg because all elements except for 7 nonmetals are just left alone when they are by themselves in a formula. The 7 diatomic elements( means they have to have two of them without another element attached to it aka. a subscript two after it when it's by itself) are hydrogen, nitrogen, oxygen, fluorine, chlorine, bromine, and iodine. An easy way to remember the diatomic seven is that when looking at a periodic table if you trace over them from nitrogen over to fluorine and down to iodine all of those elements are diatomic + hydrogen.
And your unbalanced and balanced equations are correct.
(sorry I went on a tangent with the diatomic rules hopefully it will help you in the future though)

Mg²+ has 10 electrons while Mg has 12 electrons.
Answer:
The order is:
F >Be >Li >Ba
Explanation:
Electrons are held in atoms by their attraction to the nucleus which means that to remove an electron from the atom energy is needed.
The ionization energy is the minimum energy necessary to remove an electron from an atom in the gas phase and ground state, the electron removed being the outermost, that is, the furthest from the nucleus. The further away the electron is from the nucleus, the easier it is to remove it, that is, the less energy is needed.
By increasing the atomic number of the elements of the same group, the nuclear attraction on the outermost electron decreases, since the atomic radius increases. Then the ionization energy decreases. In other words, in a group it decreases from top to bottom because the size of the atom increases and it is easier to remove an external electron.
By increasing the atomic number of the elements of the same period, the nuclear attraction on the outermost electron increases, since the atomic radius decreases. Therefore, in a period, as the atomic number increases, the ionization energy increases. In summary, in a period it increases from left to right as the effective nuclear charge increases and it increases thanks to the decrease in the size of the atom.
Taking these considerations into account, the order is:
<u><em>F >Be >Li >Ba</em></u>
