Why calcium is more reactive thanmagnesium?

2 answers:

6 0

Mg is 3 and they are two electrons in its outermost energy level. On the other hand, energy level of Ca is 4 and there are two electrons in its outermost level. In spite same number of electrons in their outermost levels, attraction between the nucleus and valence electrons of Mg is higher than that of Ca.

Answer:

Ca is more reactive because it has a lower

ionization energy than Mg. This is because it is lower in the periodic table. The added central electrons added over the extra period provide shielding in the center of the atom

Answer: Potassium to fluorine, fluorine to nitrogen, bromine to hydrogen, carbon to hydrogen, lithium to chlorine, sodium to chlorine.
Explanation:
Ionic bond is greater when the electronegativity difference existing between the two atoms are large causing the bonding to be more polar.

A motor cyclist starts from rest and reaches a speed of 6m/s after travelling with uniform acceleration for 3s. What is his acce

choli [55]

Answer:

2m/s²

Explanation:

When an object starts or at its state of rest it has an Initial speed U = 0

Final speed = 6m/s

total time taken for the acceleration = 3s

Acceleration =?

Acceleration is the change in velocity (speed) with time

Time rate of change of velocity

Acceleration = Change in Speed(velocity)

Time taken

Hence,

Acceleration =  V - U 

a = 6 - 0

a = 6 

a = 2m/s²

How is a "decay event' recorded

mrs_skeptik [129]

Their dark matter detector witnessed the rarest event ever recorded: the radioactive decay of xenon-124. ... The supreme fine-tuning and clean measurements allowed by XENON1T enabled scientists to witness xenon-124 decay away at a rate that far exceeds the life of the universe.
Hope that helps.
