Explanation:
Atomic number of magnesium is 12 and its electronic distribution is 2, 8, 2. To attain noble gas configuration it is necessary for the magnesium atom to lose two valence electrons and therefore, it forms
ions.
On the other hand, atomic number of oxygen atom is 8 and its electronic distribution is 2, 6. To attain noble gas configuration it needs to gain two electrons. And, on gaining the electrons it forms
ions.
Hence, when both magnesium and oxygen ions chemically combine with each other then it forms the compound magnesium oxide (
).
This is because magnesium transfer its two valence electrons to the oxygen atom and due to the formation of opposite charges on these atoms they get attracted towards each other.
Answer:
The correct answer is AMP+H2O→ Adenosine + pi
Explanation:
The above reaction is least energetic because there is no phosphoanhydride bond present with adenosine mono phosphate.Phospho anhydride bond is an energy rich bond.
As a result hydrolysis of AMP generates very little amount of energy in comparison to the hydrolysis of ATP and ADP.
It has 7 electrons, 7 protons and 7 neutrons
Explanation:
the trend in electropositivity in group 1
Li < Na < K < Rb < Cs
Both active and passive transport move molecules
