Answer:
.
Explanation:
Electrons are conserved in a chemical equation.
The superscript of 
indicates that each of these ions carries a charge of 
. That corresponds to the shortage of one electron for each 
ion.
Similarly, the superscript 
on each 
ion indicates a shortage of three electrons per such ion.
Assume that the coefficient of (among the reactants) is 
, and that the coefficient of (among the reactants) is 
.
.
There would thus be silver (
) atoms and aluminum (
) atoms on either side of the equation. Hence, the coefficient for 
and 
would be 
and 
, respectively.
.
The ions on the left-hand side of the equation would correspond to the shortage of electrons. On the other hand, the 
ions on the right-hand side of this equation would correspond to the shortage of 
electrons.
Just like atoms, electrons are also conserved in a chemical reaction. Therefore, if the left-hand side has a shortage of electrons, the right-hand side should also be electrons short of being neutral. On the other hand, it is already shown that the right-hand side would have a shortage of electrons. These two expressions should have the same value. Therefore, 
.
The smallest integer and that could satisfy this relation are 
and 
. The equation becomes:
.

Answer:
Isotopes
Explanation:
Isotopes are atoms of the same element that contain an identical number of protons, but a different number of neutrons. Despite having different numbers of neutrons, isotopes of the same element have very similar physical properties.
Lewis Structure is drawn in following steps,
1) Calculate Number of Valence Electrons: # of Valence electrons in Mg = 2
# of Valence electrons in I = 7
# of Valence electrons in I = 7
---------
Total Valence electrons = 16
2) Draw Mg as a central atom surround it by two atoms of Iodine.3) Connect each Iodine atom to Mg, and subtract two electrons per bond. In this case we will subtract 4 electrons from total valence electrons. i.e.
Total Valence electrons 16
- Four electrons - 4
----------
12
4) Now start adding the remaining 12 electrons on more electronegative atoms i.e. Iodine.
The final lewis structure formed is as follow,
