How many electrons are in mg2+?

1 answer:

7 0

(Pay attention to the subject you're choosing, this is supposed to be in the Chemistry section, not here in the Mathematics)
On the periodic table, the Magnesium Mg is located in period 3, group 2. So it got 12 electrons.
So to become the cation Mg2+, the Magnesium has lost 2 electrons during it's formation.
So 12-2=10.
So there's 10 electrons in the Cation magnesium Mg2+

Hope this Helps! :)

Find the volume of a regular hexahedron if one of the diagonals of its faces is 8 root 2 inches.

Naily [24]

The answer is 114sqrt{6} in³

A regular hexahedron is actually a cube.

Diagonal of a cube D is a hypotenuse of a right triangle which other two legs are face diagonal (f) and length of a side (a):
D² = f² + a²

Face diagonal is a hypotenuse of a right triangle which sides are a and a:
f² = a² + a² =2a²

D² = f² + a²
f² = 2a²

D² = 2a² + a² = 3a²
D = √3a² = √3 * √a² = √3 * a = a√3

Volume of a cube with side a is: V = a³
D = a√3
⇒ a = D/√3

V = a³ = (D/√3)³

We have:
D = 8√2 in

$V= (\frac{D}{ \sqrt{3} } )^{3} =( \frac{8 \sqrt{2} }{ \sqrt{3} } )^{3}=( \frac{8 \sqrt{2} * \sqrt{3} }{ \sqrt{3}* \sqrt{3}} )^{3} =( \frac{8 \sqrt{2*3} }{ \sqrt{3*3}} )^{3} =( \frac{8 \sqrt{6} }{ \sqrt{3^{2} }} )^{3} =( \frac{8 \sqrt{6} }{ 3} )^{3} = \\ \\ = \frac{ 8^{3} *( \sqrt{6} )^{3}}{3^{3}} = \frac{512* \sqrt{6 ^{2} }* \sqrt{6} }{27} = \frac{512*6* \sqrt{6} }{27} = 114sqrt{6}$

You score 15 16 17 14 and 19 points out of 20 possible points that I test what must you score on the 6th test to have average of

Lelu [443]

Hello! To find the answer to this, we must add all of the first 5 numbers. When you do that, the sum should be 81. You must do 16 * 6 to find the number of points combined he needs to add up to the average. 16 * 6 = 96. 96 - 81 = 15. On the 6th test, you must score 15 points to have an average of 16 points. The answer is 15.

can someone help me with this i have autism and my parents aren't home I need some help with this pls will give brainly

svetoff [14.1K]

I can barely see the majority of the questions
i cant do all but to multiply fractions, you just multiply the numerator and the denominator together
so 3 2/3 x 6
change 3 2/3 to an improper fraction
9/3 x 6/1 = 27/3 which is 9/1 reduced
10 x 1 2/3 is 10/1 x 5/3 = 50/3
