Write down the name and symbol of the particle formed when the magnesium atom loses two electrons

Chemistry
1 answer:
Elenna [48]2 years ago

Answer:

A magnesium atom must lose two electrons to have the same number electrons as an atom of the previous noble gas, neon. Thus, a magnesium atom will form a cation with two fewer electrons than protons and a charge of 2+. The symbol for the ion is Mg2+, and it is called a magnesium ion.

A. By referring to forces at work in the atomic nucleus, how can you
qwelly [4]

There is an unstable ratio of protons and neutrons. Because protons are positively charged but neutrons have no charge, an increase in the number of protons means there needs to be an increase in the number of neutrons to "bind" the nucleus together. This is because like charges repel, so the protons will repel each other, and if there aren't enough neutrons to act as "glue" to hold the nucleus together, the nucleus will break apart.

What is the specific latent heat of fusion of ice if it takes 863 kJ to convert 4.6 kg of ice into water at 0 C?
charle [14.2K]

Answer:

The correct answer is 187.7 J/Jg.

Explanation:

The formula for finding the specific heat of fusion is,  

Specific heat of fusion = Q/m

Here Q is the heat energy added, signified in kJ, and m is the mass of the object in kg.  

Based on the given information, the heat energy added or Q is 869 kJ and the mass of the ice is 4.6 Kg

Now putting the values in the formula we get,  

Specific heat of fusion = Q/m

Specific heat of fusion = 863 kJ / 4.6 Kg = 187.7 J/Kg

How many moles of brcl form when 2.74 mol cl2 react with excess br2?
egoroff_w [7]
Following reaction arise between Br2 and Cl2

Br2   +               Cl2     →     2BrCl
(1mole)           (1mole)         (2moles)

From above balanced reaction, it can be seen that 1 mole of Br2 reacts with 1 mole of Cl2 to form 2 mole of BrCl

Thus, when <span>2.74 mol Cl2 reacts with excess Br2, 2.74 X 2 = 5.48 moles of BrCl will be formed. </span>
