Ans: Elements in the same period have the same number of electron shells.
A system that releases heat to the surroundings, an exothermic reaction, has a negative ΔH by convention, because the enthalpy of the products is lower than the enthalpy of the reactants of the system. The enthalpies of these reactions are less than zero, and are therefore exothermic reactions
1. Weird things like the one described above do not happen on a ramdom basis becuause molecules usually move within any enclosure in a ramdom manner. Thus, it is not possible for some types of particles to aggregate in one point while other types of molecule aggreagate in another point. Based on the kinetic energy that is available for each particle, each particle will move random
through the available space, colliding with one another and with the wall of container.
2. It will be a difficult thing to live in a Maxwell' demon world because, things will happen unpredictably and one will never know what to expect next because anything can happen at anytime. For instance, if one is drinking a glass of water, some of the particles of the water may just decide to aggregate to one part of the cup and start boiling. So, for someone who is taking a glass of water, the water may start boiling right inside his mouth when he is drinking, that will be a bad experience. When one is driving a car, the petrol particles may just decide to freeze up when one is busy speeding on the highway; that can cause a very serious accident. Thus, a world where the Maxwell law operates will be a chaotic world.
Answer:
Option C.
2 Mg (s) + O₂(g) → 2MgO (s)
Explanation:
Two moles of magnesium solid react with one mol of oxygen gas to
form two moles of magnesium-oxide solid
2 Mg (s) + O₂(g) → 2MgO (s)
That's the reaction for the magnessium oxide's formation.
Be careful cause we do not say molecules, they are moles.
The stoichiometry indicates the number of moles that react and the moles which are produced.
It is a redox reaction, because the magnessium is oxidized and the oxygen is reduced. Both elements, changed the oxidation states.
