Answer:

10 electrons

Explanation:

The easiest way to do this is to simply look at the periodic table, find the atomic number of magnesium, and subtract 2 from it. The reason this works is that the atomic number tells you how many protons an element has. If we want the element to be neutral, then by definition it will have the same number of electrons.

When forming positive ions transition metals comply gain electrons??
AlekseyPX

Answer:

elements on the left-hand side of the periodic table such as sodium and magnesium prefer to lose electrons to form a cation because this requires less energy to obtain a stable octet, and vice-versa for the right-hand side of the periodic table e.g. fluorine. However, using this reasoning I am not sure why all transition metals tend to lose electrons rather than gain them.

A truck is moving at the rate of 40 km/hr. How far does it move when it stops after 5 seconds?
seraphim [82]
First of all, this is the chemistry section, while your question is a physics question. Anyway I'll tell you how to solve it.

First we need to find the rate that the truck moves in a second.

1km = 1000m
40km = 40000m
40000m/hr
1 hour = 60 minutes
40000m/hr ÷ 60 = 666.66(repeating)/minute
1 minute = 60 seconds
666.66m/min ÷ 60 = 11.11(rep)m/s

Next we simply multiply the speed of the truck by the number of seconds it travels.

11.11 × 5 = 55.55
Make sure to round it unless you indicate the repeating decimal.
The truck moved 55.56m in 5 seconds.

Which of these expressions are correct variations of the combined gas law?
victus00 [196]
The combines law of gas is:

P1 * V1     P2 * V2
---------- = -----------
    T1           T2

So, you can obtain many equivalent valid forms depending on the variable that you solve for.

These are some examples:

Solve for T1:

T1 = T2 * (P1 * V1) / (P2 * V2)

Solve for V2:

V2 = V1 * (T2 / T1) * (P1 / P2)

Solve for P1:

P1 = P2 * (T1 / T2) * ( V2 / V1)

Misha Larkins [42]

Answer: Alkaloids

A class of substances known as alkaloids are used for their medicinal properties.

Explanation:

Alkaloids are small but complex organic substances with at least one nitrogen atom in its ring structure. Hence, they have strong basic properties, and are produced in naturally by some plants.

Examples of alkaloids and their medicinal properties are as follows:

- caffeine, used in certain drug and drinks to stimulate the nervous system

- morphine, used to reduce pain and induce sleep in humans.

- cocaine, nicotine etc
