Balanced equation
Mg₃(PO₄)₂ + 2Al(NO₃)₃ → 3Mg(NO₃)₂ + 2AlPO₄
<h3>Further explanation</h3>
Given
Reaction
Mg3(PO4)2 + Al(NO3)3 → Mg(NO3)2 + AlPO4
Required
Balanced equation
Solution
Give a coefficient :
Mg₃(PO₄)₂ + aAl(NO₃)₃ → bMg(NO₃)₂ + cAlPO₄
Make an equation :
Mg, left = 3, right=b⇒b=3
P, left=2, right=c⇒c=2
Al, left=a, right=c⇒a=c⇒a=2
The reaction becomes :
Mg₃(PO₄)₂ + 2Al(NO₃)₃ → 3Mg(NO₃)₂ + 2AlPO₄
The first option is correct.
(True) <span>Organisms belonging to the same species can mate and produce fertile offspring</span>
The correct answer is A
The octet rule state that all main group elements form bonds such that they achieve a noble gas configuration with eight valence electrons. In this case carbon has 4 electrons in its outermost shell and requires 4 more electrons to achieve an octet. Hydrogen is an exception to the octet rule and it only requires two electrons to achieve an octet. All the other options have C and H forming bonds that do not lead to a noble gas configuration.
