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! :)

Answer:

At the given rate, Mr. Hickman's cherry tree would grow 16 inches in 1 year.

Step-by-step explanation:

I assume the actual question is:

<em>"Mr. Hickman` s cherry tree grew 12 inches in 3/4 of a year. How much would it grow in one year ?"</em>

As stated,

In 3/4 of a year, Mr. Hickman's cherry tree grew = 12 inches

Therefore,

In 1 year, Mr. Hickman's cherry tree would grow = $\frac{1}{\frac{3}{4} }*12$ inches

= 4/3 * 12 inches

= 16 inches

Hence, at the given rate, Mr. Hickman's cherry tree would grow 16 inches in 1 year.
