The answer would be the 3. Mg + energy--> mg+ + e- 
Ionization Energy is the amount of energy vital to eliminate the most loosely bond electron from an atom in the gas stage. Since Magnesium has a higher first energy which is 738 kj/mol, is the energy needed to remove the outermost, or highest energy.

Answer: Option (d) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

The energy required to remove the most loosely bound electron from a neutral gaseous atom is known as ionization energy.

As the atomic size of an atom increases then there will be less force of attraction between the nucleus and valence electrons of the atom. Hence, with lesser amount of energy the valence electrons can be removed.

As a result, ionization energy will decrease.

Now, potassium is larger in size than sodium. Hence, ionization energy of potassium is less than sodium.

And, Na, Mg and Al are all period 3 elements. It is known that across a period there is an increase in ionization energy of the elements due to decrease in their atomic size.

Hence, aluminium being the smallest will have the greatest ionization energy.

Thus, we can conclude that the reaction Al + energy \rightarrow Al^{+} + e^{-} will have the greatest first ionization energy.

Mg(OH)2 + HCl --> MgCl2 + H2O
Rashid [163]
I am guessing you want us to balance this equation so.
To balance, we add another molecule of HCl to the left side of the equation and another molecule of water (H20) to the right side of the equation to give: 

<span>Mg(OH)2 + 2HCl = MgCl2 + 2H20 </span>

Find mass of 3 moles of water​
EleoNora [17]

Answer:

54 g

Explanation:

1 mole of water = H2O

mass of 1 mole of H2O= mass of h2 + mass of o

= 2× mass of h +mass of o

= 2×1+16 =18 g

1 mole of water = 18g

3moles of water = 18×3g= 54g

Tris {(hoch2)3cnh2} is one of the most common buffers used in biochemistry. a solution is prepared by adding enough tris and 12
shusha [124]

Given that,

The concentration of TRIS = 0.30 M

The concentration of TRIS+ = 0.60 M

Kb = 1.2 x 10^-6

pKb = -log Kb = - log (1.2 x 10^-6) = 5.920

Now, by using the Hendersonn equation,

pH = pKa + log TRIS+/TRIS = 5.920 + log (0.60/0.30) = 6.221

<span>pOH=14-pH=14-6.221 = 7.779</span>
