The answer is more protons than electrons.
Oxygen gains two electrons when it bonds to form a complete outer shell and magnesium loses two electrons when bonding to gain its full outer shell.
As electrons are negative, the oxygen (which gains electrons) will become negative and the magnesium (which loses electrons) will become positive.
The negative and positive ions will then attract to one another due to the magnetic pull of the positive and negative.
Hi there!
p = e-3
s = f-1
f = i-7

Answer:
90.3 L
Explanation:
Given data:
Volume of water produced = 77.4 L
Volume of oxygen required = ?
Solution:
Chemical equation:
2C₂H₆ + 7O₂ → 4CO₂ + 6H₂O
It is known that,
1 mole = 22.414 L
There are 7 moles of oxygen = 7×22.414 = 156.9 L
There are 6 moles of water = 6×22.414 = 134.5 L
Now we will compare:
H₂O : O₂
134.5 : 156.9
77.4 : 156.9/134.5×77.4 =90.3 L
So for the production of 77.4 L water 90.3 L oxygen is required.
