Balanced equation for the above reaction is as follows;
Mg(OH)₂ + 2HCl ---> MgCl₂ + 2H₂O
stoichiometry of Mg(OH)₂ to MgCl₂ is 1:1
mass of Mg(OH)₂ reacted - 1.82 g
number of moles of Mg(OH)₂ - 1.82 g/ 58.3 g/mol = 0.0312 mol
number of Mg(OH)₂ moles reacted - number of MgCl₂ moles formed
number of MgCl₂ moles formed - 0.0312 mol
mass of MgCl₂ formed - 0.0312 mol x 95.2 g/mol = 2.97 g
mass of MgCl₂ formed - 2.97 g
Hola!
→ Your query:
Atoms of one element easily changes to atoms of another element. Is it True? or False?
→ The answer is: TRUE
→ Reason :
We can change atom of one element to other atom by adding more particles into them. ex : Neutron, Protons and Electrons.
This is how nuclear fusion works.
hope it helps!
Answer:
The correct answer is "D. The difference in their electronegativities is greater than 1.7"
Explanation:
An ionic bond is produced between metallic and non-metallic atoms, where electrons are completely transferred from one atom to another. During this process, one atom loses electrons and another one gains them, forming ions. Usually, the metal gives up its electrons forming a cation to the nonmetal element, which forms an anion.
So, this type of bond consists of the attraction of atoms with electric charges of different signs, that is, the bond is established when atoms of low electronegative elements (metals) are bonded with atoms of highly electronegative elements (nonmetals).
So you can say that atoms of electronegativity difference equal to or greater than 1.7 participate in this type of bond (with its exceptions).

Well, you can't use this word for word, but a good answer would be something like:
Pesticides release harmful chemicals into the air, not only making it toxic and unsafe for us, but it also has the potential to kill off insects. This affects the ecosystem as well, as it reduces the available food source for larger animals such as birds, which in turn, affect another species.
