Answer:

Both electrons of Mg should be transferred to one O.

Explanation:

This is because metals like to lose electrons whereas non metals like to gain electrons in an ionic compound. MgO is an ionic compounds. So Magnesium being a metal in group 2 of periodic table, it wants to donate 2 electrons to get to the octet rule, so it donates its electrons and oxygen accepts them to fill its octet rule.

Answer B

Mg has a positive ionic charge because it hoped to loose its two electrons to make it stable or happy

O had a negative ionic charge bc it wants to gain electrons to make it stable or happy

therefore,

QA) O would not want/wouldn't use up the energy to transfer 6 of its electrons and Mg would accept O's electrons
Q3) goes against laws of chemistry
Q4) Mg can not gain 2 extra electrons unless it is a double molecule (which it is not) a

Answer:

A wave with small amplitude.

Explanation:

Amplitude us inversely proportional to energy so the smaller the amplitude, the higher the energy.

Which of these statements are true? Select all that apply.
Anarel [89]
In order to find the two statements, we must first define what the enthalpy of formation and the enthalpy of reaction mean.

Enthalpy of formation:
The change in enthalpy when one mole of substance is formed from its constituent elemetns at standard state.

Enthalpy of reaction:
The change in enthalpy when a reaction occurs and the reactants and products are in their standard states.

Now, we check the statements. The true ones are:

The Hrxn for C(s) + O₂(g) → CO₂(g) is the same as Hf for CO₂
This is true because the formation of carbon dioxide requires carbon and oxygen in their standard states.

T
he Hf for Br₂<span>(l) is 0 kJ/mol by definition.
Because the bromine is present in its standard state, the enthalpy of formation is 0.

</span><span>The Hrxn for the reaction 1.5H</span>₂<span>(g) + 0.5N</span>₂<span>(g) </span>→ <span>NH</span>₃<span>(g) is the same as the Hf for NH</span>₃<span>(g)
The reactants and products are present in their standard state, and the reaction is the same as the one occurring during the formation of ammonia.
