Answer:
Answer is: c. It must lose two electrons and become an ion.
Magnesium (Mg) is metal from 2. group of Periodic table of elements and has low ionisation energy and electronegativity, which means it easily lose valence electons (two valence electrons).
Magnesium has atomic number 12, which means it has 12 protons and 12 electrons. It lost two electrons to form magnesium cation (Mg²⁺) with stable electron configuration like closest noble gas neon (Ne) with 10 electrons.
Electron configuration of magnesium ion: ₁₂Mg²⁺ 1s² 2s² 2p⁶.

Answer: The spring constant is K=392.4N/m
Explanation:
According to hook's law the applied force F will be directly proportional to the extension e produced provided the spring is not distorted
The force F=ke
Where k=spring constant
e= Extention produced
h=2m
Given that
e=20cm to meter 20/100= 0.2m
m=100g to kg m=100/1000= 0.1kg
But F=mg
Ignoring air resistance
assuming g=9.81m/s²
Since the compression causes the plastic ball to poses potential energy hence energy stored in the spring
E=1/2ke²=mgh
Substituting our values to find k
First we make k subject of formula
k=2mgh/e²
k=2*0.1*9.81*2/0.1²
K=3.921/0.01
K=392.4N/m
