Oxygen gains two electrons when it bonds to form a complete outer shell and magnesium loses two electrons when bonding to gain its full outer shell.
As electrons are negative, the oxygen (which gains electrons) will become negative and the magnesium (which loses electrons) will become positive.
The negative and positive ions will then attract to one another due to the magnetic pull of the positive and negative.
Answer:
5
Explanation:
they are all significant All non-zero numbers ARE significant
Answer:
Collisions between gas particles are elastic; there is no net gain or loss of kinetic energy.
Explanation:
When a gas is paced in a container, the molecules of the gas have little or no intermolecular interaction between them. There is a lot of space between the molecules of the gas.
The gas molecules move at very high speed and collide with each other and with the walls of container.
The collision of these particles with each other is perfectly elastic hence the kinetic energy of the colliding gas particles do not change.
