Why is the chemical formula magnesium sulfide written as MgS and NOT Mg2S2?
Anna71 [15]

Explanation:

The chemical formula magnesium sulfide written as MgS and NOT Mg_{2}S_{2} because charge on magnesium ion is +2 and charge on sulfide ion is -2.

Therefore, these charges will cancel out each other as we write the formula in simplest crisscross  method.

Also, the numbers in a chemical formula display the total number of atoms attached with each other or central atom.

For example, in CaCl_{2} there are two chlorine atoms attached to one calcium atom.

Therefore, MgS denotes one sulfur atom is attached to magnesium atom. Hence, we do not write the formula of magnesium sulfide as Mg_{2}S_{2} because this shows two magnesium atoms are attached to two sulfur atoms which is not true.

What happens when stress builds at faults? Select three options
Stels [109]

Answer:

When Stress builds up at faults, the 3 options that are correct and can happen

- Rock can bend and break;

- Earthquakes develop at Earth's surface

- Forces affect Earth's rocks

Explanation:

This is a Geography question

- Rock can bend and break

When Stress builds up at faults, it leads to a geologic activity that causes a lot of pressure that lead to the movement of the earth's crust. The movement creates such intense pressure on the rocks, that, with time, they twist, bend, and break due to this pressure.

- Earthquakes develop at Earth's surface

As explained earlier, this intense pressure can lead to rocks breaking, as these rocks break inside the earth's crust, the gaps that come into play after the breaking of the rocks causes the remaining rocks to adjust, releasing a lot of force, and subsequently creating earthquakes.

- Forces affect Earth's rocks

As explained earlier, the forces resulting from these intense pressures, affect the earth's rocks. They move them both vertically and horizontally, change their shape and eventually break them.

Hope this Helps!!!
