The compound magnesium phosphate has the chemical formula Mg3(PO4)2. In this compound, phosphorous and oxygen act together as on
S_A_V [24]

The question is incomplete, the complete question is;

The compound magnesium phosphate has the chemical formula Mg3(PO4)2. In this compound, phosphorus and oxygen act together as one charged particle, which is connected to magnesium, the other charged particle. What does the 2 mean in the formula 5Mg3(PO4)2? A. There are two elements in magnesium phosphate. B. There are two molecules of magnesium phosphate. C. There are two magnesium ions in a molecule of magnesium phosphate. D. There are two phosphate ions in a molecule of magnesium phosphate.

Answer:

There are two phosphate ions in a molecule of magnesium phosphate.

Explanation:

The compound magnesium phosphate is an ionic compound. Ionic compounds always consists of two ions, a positive ion and a negative ion.

In this case, the positive ion is Mg^2+ while the negative ion is PO4^3-.

The subscript, 2 after the formula of the phosphate ion means that there are two phosphate ions in each formula unit of magnesium phosphate.

Glass has a hardness that is in the middle of the hardness scale. What is the hardness of Glass?
sweet [91]

Answer: 5.5

Explanation:

Let's start by explaining that hardness is a property that materials have related to the opposition or resistance they offer to alterations such as penetration, abrasion, scratching, cutting, and permanent deformations, among others.

In this context, several hardness scales have been developed to catalog the materials (specifically minerals), being the Mohs scale  the best known. This scale, proposed by the German geologist Friedrich Mohs in 1825, consists of a ratio of ten minerals numbered in increasing order by hardness, from least to greatest.

This is how the scale starts at 1 with the talc (considered the softest material) and ends at 10 with the diamond as the hardest.

Now, if we are told that the glass is in the middle of the hardness scale that goes from 1 to 10, logically its value will be 5 (volcanic glass). However, according to the scale, the glass is at 5.5.

Readme [11.4K]
Hey there!

Your correct answer would be (<span>Every mass exerts a gravitational force on every other mass.) It really doesn't matter the size in mass what so ever, gravity is stronger than mass, mass in nothing compared to mass. Therefor, gravity exert's mass on any object with any size of mass.

Your correct answer would be . . . 

</span>\boxed{\boxed{Every \ mass \ exerts \ a \ gravitational \ force \ on \ every \ other \ mass}}
<span>
Hope this helps.

Which list ranks these jobs in the STEM career cluster based on years of schooling required, from most to least? Biochemist → Ar
tigry1 [53]

Answer:

The correct option is;

Biochemist → Archivist → Civil Engineer → Engineering Technician

Explanation:

1) Biochemist require the completion of a science degree or applied science degree, while biochemist usually hold a PhD to perform research independently, while entry level positions in the profession require a masters or bachelors degree

The PhDs usually require about 5 years to complete, after obtaining the masters degree

2) The general educational requirement to become an archivist is a master's degree in the fields of library science, history, public administration, political science, or archival science, which requires the completion of a bachelors degree followed by the completion of the masters degree which is thus 4 to 6 years

3) Civil engineer title is awarded to holders of a bachelors degree in Civil Engineering which gives the strong mathematical and science background required in the profession usually. The Civil Engineering program duration is five years

4) The engineering technician consist of 8.2% with masters degree, 42.0% have bachelors degree, while it is also possible to become an engineering technician with a GED or a high school degree

Therefore, the usual duration of study to become an engineering technician is two years of an associate degree program.
