5 0

Answer:

B => Mg° => Mg⁺² + 2e⁻

Explanation:

2Mg° + O₂ => 2MgO  rewrite => Mg° + 1/2O₂ => 2MgO

Oxidation Half Rxn => Mg° => Mg⁺² + 2e⁻

Reduction Half Rxn => 1/2O₂ + 2e⁻ => 2O⁻

__________________________________-

FYI Note =>  For half-reactions one always finds the electrons listed on the product side of the reaction for oxidation reactions and for reduction reactions on the reactant side.

The critical point of carbon dioxide is 304 k and 73 atm. under which conditions is carbon dioxide a liquid? i. 303 k and 73 atm
Sergeeva-Olga [200]
Answer is: a) I only.
Above critical temperature of CO₂, a gas cannot be liquefied no matter how much pressure is applied. Temperature and pressure above its critical point is called supercritical fluid and this is <span>intermediate between gaseous and liquid states.</span>

What are valence electrons and how do they affect the properties of an atom?
vlada-n [284]

The term "valence electrons" refers to all of the electrons in an atom's outermost shell.

The centre of the atom is where the nucleus is. The nucleus contains protons and neutrons. The electrons travel in a specific circular direction and at a specific distance from the nucleus.

The atom's final shell's electrons take part in chemical reactions and the production of bonds. Both ionic and covalent bonding involve valence electrons. Metals are elements with one, two, or three electrons in their final shell.

These substances become positive ions after losing their electrons. Non-metals are substances with 5, 6, or 7 electrons in the outermost shell. These substances all gain electrons and change into negative ions.

Ionic bonds are those created by the transfer of electrons between metals and non-metals. For instance, ionic bonding allows sodium and chlorine to interact to generate sodium chloride.
