What are the reactants in the first word equation above.

magnesium+ hydrochloric acid is the reactants

Explanation:

the reactants are always in the left and the products are always in the right by

magnesium+hydrochloric acid ⇒ magnesium chloride + hydrogen

by combining magnesium and hydrochloric acid it produces magnesium chloride and hydrogen.

hope this helps..

explanation:

let the different atoms be x and y. each with four protons and same mass will be represented as follows.

mass number is number of protons + number of neutrons.

            and  

since, it is given that one has a negative charge while the other is neutral. therefore, there will be increase in number of protons and the atom will be represented as follows.

according to periodic table, mass number of beryllium is 9 and it has atomic number 4 so, the atoms will be and .  

the protons and neutrons will be located inside the nucleus whereas the electrons will be revolving around the nucleus.  

it's all four options.
