Chemical element of atomic number 22, a hard silver-gray metal of the transition series, used in strong, light, corrosion-resistant alloys.<span>These alloys are mainly </span>used<span> in aircraft, spacecraft and missiles because of their low density and ability to withstand extremes of temperature.</span>
Since the given formula is . According to cross method formula, magnesium has +2 charge so, is multiplied by 2.
Thus, 1 molecule of magnesium phosphate will contain 2 atoms of phosphorus.
Therefore, three molecules of magnesium phosphate contains following number of atoms.
Mg = 9
P = 6
O = 24
Hence, we can conclude that there are 6 atoms of phosphorus in three molecules of magnesium phosphate, .
The correct response is A. The inner she'll contains 2 electrons and the outer shell contains 4 electrons.
