The product is magnesium sulfate plus hydrogen gas,as per this equation:
<span>Mg + H2SO4 = MgSO4 + H<span>2(g)</span></span>
To solve this, we can use two equations.
t1/2 = ln 2 / λ = 0.693 / λ
where, t1/2 is half-life and λ is the decay constant.
t1/2 = 10 min = 0.693 / λ
Hence, λ = 0.693 / 10 min - (1)
Nt = Nο e∧(-λt)
Nt = amount of atoms at t =t time
Nο= initial amount of atoms
t = time taken
by rearranging the equation,
Nt/Nο = e∧(-λt) - (2)
From (1) and (2),
Nt/Nο = e∧(-(0.693 / 10 min) x 20 min)
Nt/Nο = 0.2500
Percentage of remaining nuclei = (nuclei at t time / initial nuclei) x 100%
= (Nt/Nο ) x 100%
= 0.2500 x 100%
= 25.00%
Hence, Percentage of remaining nuclei is 25.00%

Answer:
3 e⁻ transfer has occurred.
Explanation
This is a redox reaction.
- Oxidation (loss of electrons or increase in the oxidation state of entity)
- Reduction (gain of electrons or decrease in the oxidation state of the entity)
- An element undergoes oxidation or reduction in order to achieve a stable configuration. It can be an octet or duplet configuration. An octet configuration is that of outer shell configuration of noble gas.
- [Ne]= (1s²) (2s² 2p⁶)
A combination of both the reactions( Half-reactions) leads to a redox reaction.
Let us look at initial configurations of Al and Cl
[Al]= 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p¹
[Cl]= 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁵
Hence, Al can lose 3 electrons to achieve octet config.
and, Cl can gain 1e to achieve nearest noble gas config. [Ar]
This reaction can be rewritten, by clearly mentioning the oxidation states of all the entities involved.
Al⁰ + Cl⁰ → (Al⁺³)(Cl⁻)₃
Here, Aluminum is undergoing an oxidation(i.e loss of electrons) from: 0→(+3)
Chlorine undergoes a reduction half reaction (i.e gain of electrons) from: 0→(-1). There are 3 such chlorine atoms, hence 3 e⁻ transfer has occurred.
