Answer: B
Oxygen acts as oxidator in the first reaction.
Explanation:
At reactant side:
Mg = 0
At product side:
MgO = 0
but Oxygen (O) = -2
Mg + O = 0
Mg + (-2) = 0
Mg - 2 = 0
Mg = 2
Magnesium is oxidized by OXYGEN from zero to +2
Oxygen acts as oxidator in the first reaction.
Answer: It has a charge of -2 because it has 2 more electrons than protons meaning it has a negative charge of 2 which is -2. Neutrons don't effect charge.
( +1 +1 -1 -1 -1 -1) = -2
Each proton has a charge of +1 and each electron has -1.
2(1) - 4(1) = -2

Hello!
The atomic number is determined only by the number of protons in the nucleus of an atom. But, in a neutral atom it also represents the number of electrons in the electron cloud.
Neutrons are only important in the nucleus for helping us find atomic weight, which varies as we move along the perodic table and does not always equal the same amount of it's atomic number. Which is why it would not be a suitable answer for the first blank space. Electrons do not work either as they do not exist inside the nucleus but rather outside the atom.
The second space, since it states is in the electron cloud, we can deduct that electrons would be an appropriate answer there.
If you need anymore help feel free to ask, but I hope this answers your question.
Answer:
Percent error = 5.6%
Explanation:
Given data:
Measured value of density by students = 2.85 g/cm³
Accepted density of aluminium = 2.70 g/cm³
Percent error = ?
Solution:
Formula:
Percent error = [ Measured value - accepted value / accepted value ]× 100
Now we will put the values in formula:
Percent error = [ 2.85 g/cm³ - 2.70 g/cm³ / 2.70 g/cm³ ]× 100
Percent error = [0.15/2.70 g/cm³ ] × 100
Percent error = 0.056× 100
Percent error = 5.6%
