Recall that atoms gain or lose electrons to become ions. So, an ion has a different number of electrons than its corresponding neutral atom. Positive ions have lost electrons, and negative ions have gained electrons. The table includes the electron configuration of several ions. Complete the rows for magnesium and oxygen (oxide) ions by identifying the correct ion charge, electron configuration, and neutral atom with the same configuration as the ion. You may need to use online resources or the periodic table to determine the correct ion charges. Select the correct answer from each drop-down menu to complete the table.

2+/1s2 2s2 2p6/neon

2−/1s2 2s2 2p6/neon

Explanation:

Explanation:

A magnesium atom that loses two electrons to become a magnesium cation has the same electron configuration as neon. An oxygen atom that gains two electrons to become an oxygen anion also has the same electron configuration as neon.

answer

i think the answer is a) as air pressure in an area increases, the density of the gas particles in that area decreases.

hope it

because natural gas is colorless, odorless, and tasteless, distributors add mercaptan (a chemical that smells like sulfur) to give natural gas a distinct unpleasant odor (it smells like rotten eggs). they locate the types of rock that are likely to contain natural gas deposits.
