Answer:
A) They all have 12 protons.
Explanation:
Magnesium has an atomic number of 12 which means it has 12 protons. All Magnesium atoms have 12 protons, the neutrons however may differ which produces things called isotopes where the atoms have same protons but neutrons change.
Keep in mind the atomic number is unique to each element, so 12 atomic number will always be Magnesium, 1 will always be Hydrogen and so on.....
Balance
Usually it’s a triple beam balance.

Well you have to mix chemicals which caused a chemical reaction. When you mix salt and ice the freezing point of liquid changes. the ice gets colder
Radioactive decay => C = Co { e ^ (- kt) |
Data:
Co = 2.00 mg
C = 0.25 mg
t = 4 hr 39 min
Time conversion: 4 hr 39 min = 4.65 hr
1) Replace the data in the equation to find k
C = Co { e ^ (-kt) } => C / Co = e ^ (-kt) => -kt = ln { C / Co} => kt = ln {Co / C}
=> k = ln {Co / C} / t = ln {2.00mg / 0.25mg} / 4.65 hr = 0.44719
2) Use C / Co = 1/2 to find the hallf-life
C / Co = e ^ (-kt) => -kt = ln (C / Co)
=> -kt = ln (1/2) => kt = ln(2) => t = ln (2) / k
t = ln(2) / 0.44719 = 1.55 hr.
Answer: 1.55 hr
