Why do magnesium and oxygen need to be heated for a reaction to occur?​

Chemistry
1 answer:
Alexxandr [17]4 years ago
7 0

Because flame provides a source of heat so that the magnesium metal atoms can overcome their activation energy. Activation energy is the minimum energy required in order for a chemical reaction to proceed. When the magnesium metal burns it reacts with oxygen found in the air to form Magnesium Oxide.

How many protons, neutrons, and electrons are there in an atom of (a) 10B5, (b) 36Ar, (C) 85Sr38, and (d) carbon-Il?
astraxan [27]

Answer:

Here's what I get.

Explanation:

The isotopic symbol for an atom is

\rm _{Z}^{M}A

The atomic number (Z) is the number of protons (p) in the nucleus.

In a neutral atom, the number of electrons (e) equals the number of protons. n = e

The mass number (A) is the number of protons plus the number of neutrons (n).

A = p + n or

n = A - p

(a) \rm _{5}^{10}B

p = 5

e = 5

n = 10 - 5 = 5

(b) \rm _{18}^{36}Ar

p = 18

e = 18

n = 36 - 18 = 18

(c) \rm _{38}^{85}Sr

p = 38

e = 38

n = 85 - 38 = 47

(d)\rm _{6}^{11}C

p = 5

e = 6

n = 11 - 6 = 5
