Put water in it and the salt will dissolve and the sand will stay at the bottom
The complete answer contains the answer choices.
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.
Remember, 1 mole= 6.022x10^23 atoms, molecules, or formula units.
Answer is 1.42x10^24
Answer:
6
Explanation:
number of protons equal number of electrons for the atom to be stable
Answer:
Atoms making liquids have less attraction than solids, but more than gases
Explanation:
The attraction between atoms in different molecules in a solid is very strong due to strong intermolecular forces present in a solid. However, such intermolecular forces are weaker in liquids than in solids.
This implies that the solid has higher intermolecular forces of attraction compared to gases and liquids. Based on the negligible degree of intermolecular forces between them, a gas has the weakest intermolecular forces hence the atom has very minimal interaction between them.
