Answer: check for a change in total mass during a reaction.
According to the law of conservation of mass during a chemical change the total mass of the products remains equal to the total mass of the reactants: there is not change in the total mass.
During nuclear reactions the mass can change due to the huge release of energy which proceeds from mass change, as per the famous equation ΔE =Δm. c^2.
<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>
B. It involves loss of electrons.
<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
- Oxidation occurs when electrons are lost by an atom while reduction refers to the gain of electrons by an atom.
- <u><em>In this case, magnesium atom reacts with sulfur to form magnesium sulfide by loosing two electrons and forming magnesium ion (Mg2+). Therefore magnesium undergoes oxidation.</em></u>
- Sulfur, on the other hand will gain electrons to form Sulfide ions, therefore it undergoes reduction.
- Therefore;<em><u> In magnesium sulfide (MgS), magnesium loses two electrons and becomes a cation with a positive-two charge. Likewise, sulfur obtains the two electrons lost from magnesium and becomes an anion with a negative-two charge. However, the overall charge of MgS is zero.</u></em>
Answer:
Sirius B is primarily made out of a carbon-oxygen mixture that was generated by helium fusion in the progenitor star. The outer atmosphere is now almost pure hydrogen, the element with the lowest mass.
Explanation:
Answer:
79 g
Explanation:
Density (d) of iron = 7.9 g/cm³
Volume of the iron (V) = 10 cm³
Mass of the iron (m) = ?
Solution:
Formula will be used
d = m/V
As we have to find mass so rearrange the above equation
m = dV . . . . . . . . . . . (1)
Put values in above equation 1
m = 7.9 g/cm³ x 10cm³
m = 79 g
So,
mass of iron = 79 g
