Answer : The correct option is, (+2)

Explanation :

The given electronic configuration is, 1s^22s^22p^63s^2

In the given electronic configuration of an atom, '3s' shell is the outermost shell in which two electrons are present. For the stable configuration, these two electrons will remove easily from the outer shell and atom will carry (+2).

Total number of electrons in the given configuration= 12 electrons

And magnesium is the element which have 12 electrons. Due to the stable electronic configuration, magnesium atom changes their electronic configuration by losing two electrons and Mg atom changes to Mg^{2+} ion.

Hence, the most likely charge of an ion formed from an atom with the given electron configuration would be, (+2)

Balance the equation for the reaction in which sodium oxide reacts with water to form sodium hydroxide.
tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

Answer:

➢ \: Balance \:  the  \: equation \:  for \:  the  \: reaction \\  in \:  which \:  sodium  \: oxide \:  reacts  \\ with  \: water \:  to \:  form  \: sodium \:  hydroxide.

⇒ We have Na2O + H2O --> NaOH. We have 2 sodiums and 2 oxygens and 2 hydrogens on the left side, but only one of each on the right side.

Sodium Oxide + Water → Sodium Hydroxide

⇒ Na2O + H2O → 2NaOH .

Sodium oxide is used in ceramics and glasses. Sodium oxide reacts exothermically with cold water to produce sodium hydroxide solution.

What is the volume (in cubic inches) of 3.6 lb of titanium? The density of titanium is 4.51 g/cm3
SashulF [63]
Answer: 362,07 cm3
To answer this question you need to convert the lb into gram first. One lb equal to 453.592g, so: 3.6lb x 453.592gram/lb= 1632.9312gram. 
Now we have mass(1632.9312g), density (4.51g/cm3). Volume is mass divided by density. The equation would be:

Volume= mass/density
Volume = 1632.9312gram / (4.51g/cm3)= 362,07 cm3

The molality of the solution = 17.93 m

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

6.00 L water with 6.00 L of  ethylene glycol(ρ=1.1132 g/cm³= 1.1132 kg/L)

Required

The molality

Solution

molality = mol of solute/ 1 kg solvent

mol of solute = mol of ethylene glycol

  • mass of ethylene glycol :

= volume x density

= 6 L x 1.1132 kg/L

= 6.6792 kg

= 6679.2 g

  • mol of ethylene glycol (MW=62.07 g/mol)

=mass : MW

=6679.2 : 62.07

=107.608

  • mass of water

6 L water = 6 kg water(ρ= 1 kg/L)

  • molality

\tt =\dfrac{107.608}{6}=17.93~m

What has a higher lattice energy? MgS or BaF2
irinina [24]

Answer:

The lattice energy of MgS is 4 times larger than that of NaCl

Explanation:

because, MgS has a higher charge that is Mg2+,S2− M g 2 + , S 2 − than NaCl (Na+,Cl−) ( N a + , C l − ) .
