<span>The solid lines between N and Mg are actually ionic bonds. N has 5 valence electrons (2 of which are paired). Of the 3 that are unpaired, 2 are part of covalent bonds with adjacent carbon atoms. N accepts an extra electron to complete its octet, but gets a formal charge of -1. This allows for formation of an ionic bond with Mg, which is +2. Two of these charged N atoms therefore neutralize the charge of the central Mg. As for the coordinate (dative) covalent bonds, Mg has empty orbitals - the ionic bonds with the charged N atoms give it only 4/8 possible valence electrons.
The other two N atoms (dotted lines) have a formal charge of 0 since they form three covalent bonds with adjacent carbon atoms, but they still have a lone pair. Therefore, just to improve stability, each of these N atoms can "donate" its lone pair to Mg in order to complete its octet.
I hope my answer has come to your help. Thank you for posting your question here in Brainly. We hope to answer more of your questions and inquiries soon. Have a nice day ahead!

Answer:
B
Explanation:
the energy of two separate hydrogen atoms decreases as they approach each other, and the single electrons on each atom are shared to form a covalent bond.
Answer:
Order, sensitivity or response to the environment, reproduction, growth and development, regulation, homeostasis, and energy processing.
F- is the smallest because it accepts 1 electron 2 make its atomic number 10 making it have jst 2 orbitals but O²-,N³- and Na have their atomic number to be 18,17 and 11 respectively with 3 orbitals..
hope this helps *winks*
Answer:
The activation energy is 164.02 kJ/mol
Explanation:
Log (k2/k1) = Ea/2.303R × [1/T1 - 1/T2]
k1 = 8.9×10^-4 s^-1
k2 = 9.83×10^-3 s^-1
R = 8.314 J/mol.K
T1 = 540 K
T2 = 578 K
Log (9.83×10^-3/8.9×10^-4) = Ea/2.303×8.314 × [1/540 - 1/578]
1.043 = 6.359×10^-6Ea
Ea = 1.043/6.359×10^-6 = 164020 J/mol = 164020/1000 = 164.02 kJ/mol
