Sally is making a model of a magnesium atom with an atomic mass number of 24 for her chemistry class. she has foam balls for the protons, neutrons, and electrons. she has added 6 neutrons to her model so far. how many more neutrons does she need to add to complete her neutral atom of magnesium?
Consider the following reactions. (note: (s) = solid, (l) = liquid, and (g) = gas.) mg(s) + Β½o2(g) β mgo(s) + 146 kcal/mole h2(g) + Β½o2(g) β h2o(g), Ξ΄h = -57.82 kcal/mole what type of reaction is represented by the previous two examples?
