Beryllium 2 Magnesium

The preparation and electrical properties of magnesium mercury, MgjHgj, have been reported. The intermetallic compound was prepared by heating the elements together above 562 °C, at which temperature the compound melts, in an evacuated silica tube. Electrical resistivity and Hall-effect measurements were made from 2.4 to 297 K. No phase transition was observed over this range. The Hall constant was low and the ideal resistivity (the difference between total and residual resistivity) had the form p a T , where a = 1.9 and 1.0 at 11.50K and 

150—300 K, respectively. The solubility of mercury in magnesium has been determined by measuring the saturated pressure of mercury vapour above the alloys under conditions of non-equilibrium solidification. The solubility increases from 0.71% at 298 K to 0.93% at 721 K. The pressures were used to determine the activity of mercury in the alloys. The activity was characterized by a net concentration independence in the heterogeneous region (Mg-l-MgaHg), but in the solid-solution region the activity increased monotonically with mercury con- 

The standard free energies of formation have been calculated from vapour-pressure data for the compounds Mg2Si, Mg2Ge, MgjSn, Mg2Pb, MnSi, MnSii.73, and CoSi values are -12.2, -27.4, -7.2, -1.2, -22.9, -22.3, and —22.3 kcalmor, respectively. 

The preparation and structure of magnesium polyphosphide, MgP4, have been described. The compound was prepared by the reaction of gaseous phosphorus with the phosphide MgaP2 at 600 °C in a sealed silica tube. Evidence for a primitive monoclinic cell was obtained from electron microdiffraction. Refinement of X-ray powder diffraction data showed that the compound is isostructural with

Consequently, they maintain that some displays of the periodic system may, in truth, be superior to others. Whereas the conventionally displayed table, called the medium-long form, has many virtues, it places helium among the noble-gas elements. Some have argued that in spite of appearances, helium should in fact be placed el the head of group 2, the alkaline earth group, which includes beryllium, magnesium and calcium. Helium has two outer-shell electrons as do the elements in the alkaline earth group.

In Table XVIII are given values of the radius ratio for the salts of beryllium, magnesium and calcium (those of barium and strontium, with the sodium chloride structure, also obviously satisfy the radius ratio criterion). It is seen that all of the sodium chloride type crystals containing eight-shell cations have radius ratios greater than the limit 0.33, and the beryl-...

Some metals are extracted in electrolytic cells. In section 11.3, you saw the extraction of sodium from molten sodium chloride in a Downs cell. Other reactive metals, including lithium, beryllium, magnesium, calcium, and radium, are also extracted industrially by the electrolysis of their molten chlorides. 

Strontium has four naturally occurring isotopes (Table 4.2). It is a member of the alkaline earths (Group 2A) along with beryllium, magnesium, calcium, barium, and radium (Fig. 2.4). Strontium substitutes for calcium and is abundant in minerals such as plagioclase, apatite, and calcium carbonate.
