The number of protons in the nucleus of the atom is equal to the atomic number (Z). The number of electrons in a neutral atom is equal to the number of protons. The mass number of the atom (M) is equal to the sum of the number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus.
The balanced chemical equation is,
2Mg+2HCl→2MgCl+H2↑
A fusion reaction can be regarded as the type of reaction that occurs where two lighter elements come together in a type of reaction giving rise to a heavier/more massive element.
A fusion reaction always creates a more massive atomic nucleus (option c).
When the two lighter nuclei comes together in a reaction, a more heavier/massive nucleus is formed but its mass will still be less than the combined mass of the two reactant nuclei.
This also indicates that the left over mass may have been released as energy.

2.5 g is the mass of the penny for Canadian coins which have become defunct
Answer:
39
Explanation:
Electrons weigh almost nothing, so their mass doesn't really matter for these types of problems. Just subtract 118-79 to find the remaining mass which is for the neutrons.
