Answer:

Explanation:

4 atoms would be produced, since the reactants are 2 atoms of magnesium and 1 molecule of diatomic oxygen (which contains 2 atoms). Due to the law of conservation of matter, the total number of atoms can not increase or decrease in a chemical reaction.

4 atoms

Explanation:

On the product side, we expect to find 4 atoms of the product.

An atom is the smallest indivisible particle that takes part in a chemical reaction.

An element is a distinct substance that cannot be split-up into simpler substances. Such substances consist of only one kind of atom.

In this reaction we have:

2 elements: Mg O

on the reactant side:

We have two moles of Mg: 2 atoms of Mg

1 mole of oxygen gas: 2 atoms of O

total atoms: 4 atoms

According to the law of conservation of matter "in a chemical reaction, matter is neither created nor destroyed".

We expect to find 4 atoms of products which is MgO on the product side.

2Mg + O₂ → 2MgO + heat

Why does it rain a lot?

Vaselesa [24]

Answer:

Clouds are made up of tiny water droplets. ... As more and more droplets join together they become too heavy and fall from the cloud as rain. Warm air can hold more moisture than cool air. When the warmer air is cooled and the moisture condenses, it often rains more heavily.
