This is the complete question:
Atoms of which element react spontaneously with Mg2+(aq)? (1)chromium
(2)barium
(3)iron
(4)zinc
Answer: option 2. barium.
Explanation.
1) Mg ²⁺ (aq) is the aquous cation of the metal Mg.
2) Only a metal more reactive than Mg will be able to exchange with it the oxidation states.
3) Mg is an earth alkalyne metal (group 2 of the periodic table). The metals from this group are more reactive than the metals in the groups to its right: 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, ... Only the alkalyne metals (those in group 1) are more reactive than the earth alkalyne metals.
4) Of the list, barium is the only alkalyne metal, so it is more reactive than Mg and will be able to deliver 2 electrons to transform the cations Mg²⁺ into Mg while the very Ba will become Ba²⁺.
5) Chromium, iron and zinc are transition metals, so less metallic (reactive) than Mg.
Individuals of oxygen are formed in the stratosphere when oxygen molecules that consist of two oxygen atoms are striked by ultraviolet light. This causes the atoms to split.
Because alcohol expands over small temp changes, hence while a vial of it is used in sprinklers as the stop plug; the room gets hotter, the plug shatters.
