Answer:
metal atoms lose electrons to form positive ions (cations)
Explanation:
metal atoms lose electrons to form positive ions (cations ) non-metal atoms gain electrons to form negative ions (anions )
Answer:
No. No new substance is formed during Physical change.
Burning Mg in the air and reacting with O2 forming a white powder of MnO
So the equation is going to be:
Mn + O2 ⇒ MnO (this equation is not conserved)
to make it equilibrium:
1- First we should put 2Mno to equal the O2 on both sides.
So it will be:
Mg + O2⇒ 2MgO
2- Second we should put 2Mn to equal the Mn on both sides.
2Mg + O2⇒ 2MgO (this equation is conserved)
After putting the physical states the final equilibrium equation is going to be:
Δ
2Mg(s) + O2(g)⇒ 2MgO(s)
