Answer:
8 electrons
Explanation:
Magnesium is present on group 2.
It has 2 valence electrons.
Electronic configuration of magnesium:
Mg₁₂ = 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s²
1st energy level contain 2 electrons.(1s²)
2nd energy level contain 8 electrons. (2s² 2p⁶)
3rd energy level contain 2 electrons. (3s²)
3rs energy level of magnesium is called valence shell. It contain two valance electrons. Magnesium can easily donate its two valance electrons and get stable electronic configuration.
It react with halogens and form salt. For example,
Mg + Cl₂ → MgCl₂
1. C
2. C
3. In elastic deformation, the deformed body returns to its original shape and size after the stresses are gone. In ductile deformation, there is a permanent change in the shape and size but no fracturing occurs. In brittle deformation, the body fractures after the strength is above the limit.
4. Normal faults are faults where the hanging wall moves in a downward force based on the footwall; they are formed from tensional stresses and the stretching of the crust. Reverse faults are the opposite and the hanging wall moves in an upward force based on the footwall; they are formed by compressional stresses and the contraction of the crust. Thrust faults are low-angle reverse faults where the hanging wall moves in an upward force based on the footwall; they are formed in the same way as reverse faults. Last, Strike-slip faults are faults where the movement is parallel to the crust of the fault; they are caused by an immense shear stress.
