Answer:

MgBr₂

Explanation:

Here we need to find the molar proportions of the two elements which will give us the empirical formula of the compound. To do that,we need  to determine the number of moles the grams given represent, and then convert them to whole numbers to find their proportions.

Atomic weght Br = 79.904 g/mol mol

⇒ mol Br = 32.0 g/ 79.904 g/mol = 0.40 mol

Atomic weight Mg = 24.305 g/mol  

⇒ mol Mg = 4.9 g/24.305 g/mol = 0.20 mol

Their proportions are

0.40 Br ÷ 0.20 Mg = 2 Br ÷ 1 Mg

Empirical formula = MgBr₂

Explanation:cell division occurs to produce new cells from preexisting ones. the new cells are called daughter cells.the old cells are called parent cells.cell division may be mitosis or meiosis. Mitosis occurs in a somatic cell and produce four daughter cell. Meiosis occurs in sex cells and produce two daughter cells. Cell division usually involves Prophase, metaphase, anaphase and telophase.

Cell division occurs to ensure the continous existence of life.

Mitosis involve producing daughter cells with the same number of chromosomes as the parent cells while meiosis involves producing daughter cells with Half number of chromosomes.

This question is incomplete. Luckily, I found the same problem which is shown in the attached picture. To answer the question, we must know how the size and charge affect the lattice energy. The answer is: lattice energy increases with the increasing charge of the ions, and decreasing radius of the atoms. <em>Therefore, the ranking would be: A < B < C</em>.
