Answer: This is because of increase in air pressure inside the rubber raft.

Explanation:

According to Gay-Lussac's Law: 'The pressure of the gas  at constant volume is directly proportional to the temperature in Kelvins'.

Pressure\propto Temperature(at constant Volume)

or \frac{Pressure}{Temperature}=constant

So, when we left rubber raft in a sun on a summer day temperature of the air inside the rubber raft increases due to which pressure of an air inside the rubber raft also increases. And by this increase in pressure rubber raft bursts.

Which statement correctly explains how magnesium and chlorine combine to form magnesium chloride?
AysviL [449]
You did not include the statements but since magnesium chloride is ionic substance that we know that magnesium and chlorine formed an ionic bond.  Therefore your statement most likely will talk about how one magnesium atom gave up 2 electrons while two chlorine atoms took 1 electron.  The reaction looks like Mg+2Cl⇒MgCl₂.  
I hope this helps.  Let me know in the comments if anything is unclear.
