Oxygen gains two electrons when it bonds to form a complete outer shell and magnesium loses two electrons when bonding to gain its full outer shell. 

As electrons are negative, the oxygen (which gains electrons) will become negative and the magnesium (which loses electrons) will become positive.

The negative and positive ions will then attract to one another due to the magnetic pull of the positive and negative.

</span>

<span>Photosynthesis is the process in plants to make their food. This involves the use carbon dioxide to react with water and make sugar or glucose as the main product and oxygen as a by-product. Since we are not given the mass of CO2 in this problem, we assume that we have 1 g of CO2 available. We calculate as follows:</span>

<span>
</span>

<span>1 g CO2 ( 1 mol CO2 / 44.01 g CO2 ) ( 12 mol H2O / 6 mol CO2 ) ( 18.02 g / 1 mol ) = 0.82 g of H2O is needed</span>

<span>
</span>

However, if the amount given of CO2 is not one gram, then you can simply change the starting value in the calculation and solve for the mass of water needed.

A water bottle has a mass of 14.0g. Given a density of 1.38g/cm^3, what is the volume of the plastic used to make the water bott
Kipish [7]

Answer:

\boxed{\sf Volume \ of \ plastic \ used = 10.14 \ cm^3}

Given:

Mass = 14.0 g

Density (\rho) = 1.38 g/cm³

To Find:

Volume (V)of the plastic used to make water bottle

Explanation:

Formula:

\boxed{ \bold{Density \ (\rho) = \frac{Mass \ (m)}{Volume \ (V)}}}

Substituting value of m & density in the formula:

\sf \implies 1.38 =  \frac{14.0}{V} \\  \\   \sf \implies V =  \frac{14.0}{1.38} \\  \\   \sf \implies V = 10.14 \ cm^3

\therefore

Volume of the plastic used to make water bottle = 10.14 cm³

Determine the chemical formula for the molecule shown.
OLEGan [10]

Answer: Formula is C4H8O. In every branch of line formula there are Carbon atom. Carbon makes 4 bonds so In branch left in which two CH3-groups are attached there are also an Hydrogen aton which is not shown.

Explanation: Molecule is organic, it is classified as aldehyde.

Hydrocarbons contains only Carbon and Hydrogen atoms, Organic molecules can contain also other atoms.

Reactions of aldehydes are reduction to alcoholes or oxidation to carboxylic acids. It can not for a polymer.
