Calculate the total amount of energy required to remove 1 electron from every atom in a 2.36 g sample of magnesium.

The answer is a. that is an exothermic reaction which means it produces heat

Sorry im just trying to get answers like you are 

Caso4(s) < > ca+2 + so4^-2 ksp = [ca+2][so4^-2] = 2.4 x 10^-5 = [0.20][so4^-2] [so4^-2] =1.2 x 10^-4 ag2so4(s) ,> 2ag+ + so4^-2 ksp = [ag+]^2[so4^-2] = 1.5 x 10^-5 = (0.30)^2[so4^-2] [so4^-2] = 1.5 x 10^-5/0.09 = 1.7 x 10^-4 caso4 would precipitate first since it requires less so4^- to form a saturated solution.  i believe this is right, i hope it !
