Magnesium is more metallic than chlorine because elements with metallic character readily lose electrons. Magnesium has an ionic charge of +2, ie. it will lose 2 electrons if possible. Chlorine has an ionic charge of -1, means that it will gain 1 electron if possible.

Which forces of attraction do you think are stronger, the attractions that are broken or the new attractions that are formed? Ex
jasenka [17]

Answer: The forces of attraction are stronger in new attractions that are formed.

Explanation:

When a chemical reaction takes place between two or more different compounds then less reactive substance is displaced by the more reactive substance.

During this process, when bonds are broken between the reactants then it means the force of attraction is less stronger. The formation of new compounds occur because force of attraction is more in these new substances due to which its atoms come closer to each other.

Thus, we can conclude that forces of attraction are stronger in new attractions that are formed.

H2SO4 is added to a large beaker of water. How is the solution different from the original water?
Natasha_Volkova [10]

Answer is: A) The solution turns blue litmus to red.

Sulfuric acid (H₂SO₄) is a strong acid, it means that the solution of sufuric acid is more acidic (pH<7) than water (pH = 7).

Chemical dissociation of sulfuric acid in water:  

H₂SO₄(aq) → 2H⁺(aq) + SO₄²⁻(aq).

When solution turns phenolphthalein pink, it means it is basic (pH>7).

Sulfuric acid has more hydrogen ions (H⁺) and less hydroxide ions (OH⁻) than water.

Explain why the atomic radius of fluorine is smaller than that of lithium​
Sladkaya [172]

1. Common knowledge : Go to the right of periodic table, the atomic radius is decreasing

2. Flurine has 9 protons and lithium has 3 protons. you know that the electron is attracted with the centre of the atom, that's why more proton, more 'energy' that attract to the centre and that's why it make the shape of the atom is smaller
