A magnesium ion, Mg2+, is formed from a magnesium atom, Mg.

Chemistry
1 answer:
konstantin123 [22]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

The correct row is B.

Explanation:

The formation of the magnesium ion, Mg²⁺, comes from the removal of 2 electrons from the valence shell of the magnesium atom.<em> </em>Since the remotion is of electrons, the nucleus of the atom remains the same, so the number of protons and the number of neutrons does not change.<em> </em>

If the number of proton change, then the atom also change, since the identity of an atom is related to the atomic number which is the same to the proton number.          

Now, if the number of neutrons changes, then we would be in the presence of an isotope of the magnesium atom.        

Therefore, the correct row is B.  

I hope it helps you!

Which statements describe both male and female reproductive systems? Select three options
worty [1.4K]

Answer:

A:The reproductive system produces hormones.

B:The reproductive system transports reproductive cells.

C:The reproductive system produces reproductive cells.

Explanation:

A:The reproductive system produces hormones. : The reproductive organs ovaries in females and testes in males produces hormones. The ovaries produce estrogen and progesterone and testes produce testosterone.

B:The reproductive system transports reproductive cells. : The ovaries in females transfers an egg into the fallopian tube and testes in males secrete sperms at the time of copulation the fertilization of egg and sperm leads to the development of zygote the precursor of new life.

C:The reproductive system produces reproductive cells.: The ovaries undergo oogenesis and in testes spermatogenesis takes place to develop egg and sperms respectively.

Taken at face value, does this DNA evidence incriminate Bill, Lucy, both, or neither? Explain your answer. (two to three sentenc
inysia [295]

Answer: Yes, it does incriminate both Bill and Lucy. Both had DNA found at the scene which makes them both suspects until further investigations are conducted.

Explanation: The term "at face value" means without further investigation so it is just saying looking at what has been seen are Bill and Lucy suspects. This shows that they are because both have DNA found at the scene even though they may not have been the murderer they are being investigated.

desicribe the relationship between an inner planets distance from the sun and its period of revolution?
Anit [1.1K]

Kepler’s third law exhibits the relationships between the distance of a planet from the sun and the period of its revolution. Kepler’s third law is also sometimes referred to as the law of harmonies.

Kepler’s third law compares the orbital period and the radius of an orbit of a planet to the distance of the planet to the sun. It states mathematically that the more distant a planet is from the sun the greater its orbital period will be. The period of revolution of a planet is measured in days, weeks, months or years. For example, Earth’s period of revolution is 365 days.

What is the ratio (in the form of a decimal) of the root-mean-square speed of 238UF6 to that of 235UF6 at constant temperature?
NNADVOKAT [17]

Answer:

ratio=0.996m/s

Explanation:

RMS=\sqrt{\frac{3RT}{M} }; M= molecular weight of compound;

RMS speed is inversly proportional to the molecular weight hence compound having less molecular weight will have more rms speed value.

V1 for 238 UF_{6}; M1=238+114=352g/mole

V1 for 235 UF_{6}; M1=238+114=352g/mole

V1=\sqrt{\frac{3RT}{352} };

V2=\sqrt{\frac{3RT}{349} };

\frac{V1}{V2}=ratio of 238UF_{6} F6 to 235UF_{6}=\sqrt{\frac{349}{352} };

\frac{V1}{V2} =0.9957m/s;

\frac{V1}{V2} =0.996m/s;
