Answer:
Magnesium oxide is a binary compound of magnesium and oxygen while magnesium ribbon consists only of magnesium atoms.
Explanation:
The burning of magnesium in oxygen is a chemical change. It produces magnesium oxide having greater mass than magnesium ribbon. The greater mass results from the fact that the chemical reaction has added another element to the sample- oxygen. The mass of magnesium ribbon is the mass of magnesium atoms alone but in magnesium oxide, we consider the masses of magnesium and oxygen atoms making magnesium oxide heavier than magnesium ribbon.
Answer:
Newton's 2nd Law
Explanation:
Newton's Second Law of Motion is concerned with the effect that unbalanced forces have on motion.
Answer:
B. An ionized atom has a number of protons that is unequal to the number of electrons.
Explanation:
For a neutral atom , the number of proton and electron is equal. An ionized atom has either loss or gain electron, thereby making the number of proton and electron unequal. The answer B is true because an ionized atom has either loss or gain electron to make the number of electron and proton unequal.
Option A is incorrect because a cations holds a positive charge when it loss one or more electron not when it gains one or more electron(s). Anions possess negative charge for gaining electron(s).
Option C is not true because ions can also carry negative charges and they are called anions.
Option D is false because losing one or more electron will turn an atom to a cations.
Answer:
increases
decreases
Explanation:
The distance between particles increases when the temperature increases and decreases when temperature decreases.
- Temperature changes in a system causes the particle of such system to behave in different ways.
- When particles gain heat energy as their temperature increases, they begin to move further apart.
- As their temperature reduces they tend to coalesce.
Answer and Explanation:
The resonance contributor in cyclopentadienone (as shown in the attachment below) results into the compound having a positive charge on the carbonyl group, C=O which accounts for a highly reactive anti-aromatic 4π system. And this illustrates the reason for its instability.
