Answer : There are mainly three isotopes of magnesium found in nature; namely Mg-24, Mg-25 and Mg-26. Out of which Mg-24 has 12 neutrons, Mg-25 has 13 neutrons and Mg-26 has 14 neutrons in their atoms. The number of protons and their atomic masses remains the same for the atom. The relative abundance in nature differs for all the three isotopes. Mg-24 has abundance nearly 80% in nature, Mg-25 has abundance as 10% and Mg-26 has 11.01% abundance.

What can occur in physical change ?
Alexandra [31]

Within a physical change, an element can change forms, such as going from solid to a liquid through melting. Color change can also occur during a physical change. Physical changes are very different from chemical changes. In a chemical change the element itself changes into something else within a reaction, such as combustion (burning).

A buffering solution consists of both strong acids and bases. <br> a. True<br> b. False
artcher [175]
False. A buffering solution consists of a WEAK acid such as CH3COOH, C5H5N, or ammonia. <span>A buffering solution resists pH change upon the addition of an acidic or basic components. It can neutralize little amounts of added acid or base, thus maintaining the pH of the solution relatively stable. The correct answer is letter "B. false"</span>
