Recall that atoms gain or lose electrons to become ions. So, an ion has a different number of electrons than its corresponding n

eutral atom. Positive ions have lost electrons, and negative ions have gained electrons. The table includes the electron configuration of several ions. Complete the rows for magnesium and oxygen (oxide) ions by identifying the correct ion charge, electron configuration, and neutral atom with the same configuration as the ion. You may need to use online resources or the periodic table to determine the correct ion charges. Select the correct answer from each drop-down menu to complete the table.​

Answer:

2+/1s2 2s2 2p6/neon

2−/1s2 2s2 2p6/neon

Explanation:

Explanation:

A magnesium atom that loses two electrons to become a magnesium cation has the same electron configuration as neon. An oxygen atom that gains two electrons to become an oxygen anion also has the same electron configuration as neon.

A sample of oxygen gas occupies 3.60 liters at a pressure of 1.00 atm. If temperature is held constant, what will be the volume
Soloha48 [4]

Answer: The volume of the oxygen gas at a pressure of 2.50 atm will be 1.44 L

At constant temperature, the volume of a fixed mass of gas is inversely proportional to the pressure it exerts, then

PV = c

Thus, if the pressure increases, the volume decreases, and if the pressure decreases, the volume increases.

It is not necessary to know the exact value of the constant c to be able to use this law since for a fixed amount of gas at constant temperature, it is satisfied that,

P₁V₁ = P₂V₂

Where P₁ and P₂ as well as V₁ and V₂ correspond to pressures and volumes for two different states of the gas in question.

In this case the first oxygen gas state corresponds to P₁ = 1.00 atm and V₁ = 3.60 L while the second state would be P₂ = 2.50 atm and V₂ = y. Substituting in the previous equation,

1.00 atm x 3.60 L = 2.50 atm x y

We cleared y to find V₂,

V₂ = y = \frac{1.00 atm x 3.60 L}{2.50 atm} = 1.44 L

Then, <u>the volume of the oxygen gas at a pressure of 2.50 atm will be 1.44 L</u>

c) A substance has a high melting point and conducts electricity. What type of structure does it have
trapecia [35]

Answer:

Metallic structure

Explanation:

They have a high melting point due to the strong forces of attraction between the positive ions (cations) and the delocalised electrons. Moreover, they conduct electricity due to the sea of delocalised electrons.

<em>[Extra: It could be an ionic compound since they also have a high melting point, however they only conduct electricity in liquid or aqeouus state.]</em>
