Answer:

When it becomes an ion, it donates its valence electrons and becomes positively charged. The positively charged ion would be Mg²⁺ because it loses two electrons. It would have 12 protons and 10 electrons.

Hope that helps.

zlopas [31]

The law of conservation of mass is must be applied when cooking.

<h3>What is conservation of mass?</h3>

Law of conservation of mass states that mass of any substance will change into another form without any loss of mass, means destroying of mass is impossible.

When we cook food then mass of conservation is applied there, for example we are boiling pulses with water then in that case the amount of formed liquid pulses is equal to the initial mass of solid pulse with water.

Hence law of conservation of mass is applicable during cooking.

The atomic weight of iodine is less than the atomic weight of tellurium. However, Mendeleev listed iodine after tellurium in his
ziro4ka [17]

Answer:

The reason for the suspicion was because the manner in which iodine reacted chemically as well as its other chemical properties, indicated that it belonged in the same group as chlorine and bromine, while the much heavier tellurium should be placed in the previous group

The suspicion was proved to be correct when the atomic number of tellurium was found to be 52 and that of iodine was found to be 53 by later scientists
