Determine if 2.5/10 =? 12/48 or 2.5/2 =? 12/24 is a proportion.(1 point)
To determine if the given ratios form a proportion, we need to check if the ratios are equal.
2.5/10 does not equal 12/48 because simplifying both ratios results in 0.25 and 0.25, respectively.
2.5/2 equals 12/24 because simplifying both ratios results in 1 and 1, respectively.
Therefore, 2.5/2 = 12/24 is a proportion.

what happens when you mix magnesium reacts with hydrochloric acid
When magnesium reacts with hydrochloric acid, a chemical reaction occurs. The magnesium metal (Mg) reacts with the hydrochloric acid (HCl) to produce magnesium chloride (MgCl₂) and hydrogen gas (H₂). The balanced chemical equation for this reaction is:
Mg + 2HCl → MgCl₂ + H₂
During the reaction, you may observe effervescence (bubbling) due to the release of hydrogen gas. The solution may also become warmer as it is an exothermic reaction.
What does the atomic number tell us about an atom?
The atomic number of an atom tells us the number of protons present in its nucleus. It is an identifying characteristic of an element because each element has a unique atomic number. The atomic number determines the element's placement on the periodic table and provides information about its properties. Additionally, the atomic number also indirectly gives us the number of electrons in a neutral atom, as in a neutral atom, the number of electrons is equal to the number of protons.
How many electrons can be in the FIRST energy level of any atom or element?
The first energy level of any atom or element can hold a maximum of 2 electrons.
What particles are located within the nucleus of an atom?
The particles located within the nucleus of an atom are protons and neutrons. Protons carry a positive charge, while neutrons are electrically neutral (they have no charge).
