Answer:

in this ionic compound, oxygen has 2 excess electrons and magnesium has two electrons missing.

Explanation:

When oxygen is mixed in a chemical reaction, it acquires two electrons from magnesium, to become an ion with 2 negative .

Mg + O → MgO

Therefore, in this ionic compound, oxygen has 2 excess electrons and magnesium has two electrons missing

A raft of mass 199 kg carries two swimmers of mass 52 kg and 70 kg. The raft is initially floating at rest. The two swimmers sim
Minchanka [31]

To solve this problem we will apply the concept related to the conservation of the Momentum. We will then start considering that the amount of initial momentum must be equal to the amount of final momentum. Considering that all the objects at the initial moment have the same initial velocity (Zero, since they start from rest) the final moment will be equivalent to the multiplication of the mass of each object by the velocity of each object, so

Initial Momentum = Final Momentum

(m_B+m_1+m_2)v_i = m_1v_1+m_2v_2+m_Bv_B

Here,

m_B =  mass of Raft

m_1 = Mass of swimmers 1

m_2 = Mass of swimmers 2

v_i = Initial velocity (of the three objects)

v_B = Velocity of Raft

Replacing,

(199+52+70)*0 = (52)(4)+(70)(-4)+199v_B

Solving for v_B

vB = \frac{72}{199}

v_B = 0.3618m/s

Therefore the velocity the rarft start to move is 0.3618m/s
