Ayiana Diaz 10/30/17 Periodic Table Project Mrs. Foley: Period 1 Magnesium Magnesium is a major element. It’s the 7th ample element in the earth’s crust and the 8th most plenteous element in the universe and has diverse uses; some important and others impressive. Magnesium came from Magnesia‚ a district found in Greece. Magnesium was first discovered in 1755 by a scientist‚ Joseph Black. Black conducted an experiment in which he distinguished magnesium oxide from calcium oxide

1. What parameters can be used in the identification of this person? Forensic science is the uses scientific knowledge to solve legal and criminal investigations by collecting evidence from the crime scene. There are two main parameters that can be used to identify the individual in this case‚ namely forensic odontology and forensic anthropology. Forensic anthropology identifies human remains especially bones as they could locate and recover suspicious remains to help determine the age‚ sex‚ ancestry

Etymology The name atom comes from the Greek ἄτομος (atomos‚ "indivisible") from ἀ- (a-‚ "not") and τέμνω (temnō‚ "I cut")‚[3] which means uncuttable‚ or indivisible‚ something that cannot be divided further.[4] The concept of an atom as an indivisible component of matter was first proposed by early Indian and Greek philosophers. In the 18th and 19th centuries‚ chemists provided a physical basis for this idea by showing that certain substances could not be further broken down by chemical methods

A) Isotopes of the same element differ only in the number of electrons they contain. B) An isotope of an atom with a larger number of neutrons is larger than an isotope of the same atom that contains fewer neutrons. C) Isotopes of the same element have the same mass. D) Isotopes of the same element don’t usually have the same properties. E) Some elements have 3 or more naturally occurring isotopes. Answer: E 3) Determine the number of protons‚ neutrons

but neutron number may vary‚ so mass number (protons + neutrons) may vary. However‚ the same element may contain varying numbers of neutrons; these forms of an element are called isotopes. The chemical properties of isotopes are the same‚ although the physical properties of some isotopes may be different. Some isotopes are radioactive-meaning they "radiate" energy as they decay to a more stable form‚ perhaps another element half-life: time required for half of the atoms of an element to decay into
