Answer:
Answer is: c. It must lose two electrons and become an ion.
Magnesium (Mg) is metal from 2. group of Periodic table of elements and has low ionisation energy and electronegativity, which means it easily lose valence electons (two valence electrons).
Magnesium has atomic number 12, which means it has 12 protons and 12 electrons. It lost two electrons to form magnesium cation (Mg²⁺) with stable electron configuration like closest noble gas neon (Ne) with 10 electrons.
Electron configuration of magnesium ion: ₁₂Mg²⁺ 1s² 2s² 2p⁶.

Explanation:
The frequency 
of a wave is equal to the number of wave cycles that go through a point on its path in unit time (where "unit time" is typically equal to one second.)
The wave in this question travels at a speed of 
. In other words, the wave would have traveled 
in each second. Consider a point on the path of this wave. If a peak was initially at that point, in one second that peak would be
How many wave cycles can fit into that ? The wavelength of this wave
gives the length of one wave cycle. Therefore:
.
That is: there are 
wave cycles in of this wave.
On the other hand, Because that of this wave goes through that point in each second, that wave cycles will go through that point in the same amount of time. Hence, the frequency of this wave would be
Because one wave cycle per second is equivalent to one Hertz, the frequency of this wave can be written as:
.
The calculations above can be expressed with the formula:
,
where
represents the speed of this wave, and 
represents the wavelength of this wave.
Answer:
It says that momentum cannot be created or destroyed. Momentum just passes through systems as opposed to just disappearing in thin air. Momentum can be changed to heat or energy.
Explanation:
Answer:
130 km at 35.38 degrees north of east
Explanation:
Suppose the HQ is at the origin (x = 0, y = 0)
So the coordinates of the helicopter after the 1st flight is
After the 2nd flight its coordinate would be:
So in order to fly back to its HQ it must fly a distance and direction of
north of east
Answer:
The acceleration of the wagon is 3 m/s².
To calculate the acceleration of the wagon, we use the formula below.
Formula:
F = ma............. Equation 1
Where:
F = horizontal Force
m = mass of the wagon
a = acceleration of the wagon.
make a the subject of the equation
a = F/m.............. Equation 2
From the question,
Given:
F = 30 N
m = 10 kg
Substitute these values into equation 2
a = 30/10
a = 3 m/s²
Hence, the acceleration of the wagon is 3 m/s².
