The lysis reaction with the formation of two different gases, and the synthesis reaction with the reaction of hydrogen and oxygen support that water is a compound and not an element.

<h3>What is electrolysis?</h3>

The electrolysis is the analytical process for the separation or the deposition of the element in the presence of the electric field.

The passing of electric current through water results in the release of two types of gases. Thus, it can be said that water lysis or breakdown forms the release of two elements hydrogen and oxygen supporting the fact that water is a compound and not an element.

The production of water is found to be formed with the reaction of hydrogen with oxygen. Thus it supports that water is a compound and, not an element.

What is the rate of chemical reaction?​
babymother [125]

Explanation:

The rate of reaction is the speed at which a chemical reaction takes place, defined as proportional to the increase in the concentration of a product per unit time and to the decrease in the concentration of a reactant per unit time. Reaction rates can vary dramatically.

Which type of bonding involves the complete transfer of a valence electron from a less electronegative atom to a more electroneg
Ivan

Answer:

Ionic or electrovalent bonds

Explanation:

Ionic or electrovalent bonds are interatomic or intramolecular bonds which are formed between two kinds of atoms having a large electronegativity difference usually 2.1.

Electronegativity is the property that combines the ability of an atom to gain or lose electrons. It is expressed as the tendency with which atoms of elements attracts valence electrons in a chemical bond.

In this bond type, a metal transfers its electrons to a more electronegative atom which is a non-metal.

Br₂ (l) + 2 NaI (s) → 2 NaBr (s) + I₂ (s)

Explanation:

Reacting bromide (Br₂) with sodium iodine (NaI) will produce sodium bromide (NaBr) and iodine (I₂).

To balance the equation the number of atoms of each element entering the  reaction have to be equal to the number of atoms of each element leaving the reaction, in order to conserve the mass.

Br₂ (l) + 2 NaI (s) → 2 NaBr (s) + I₂ (s)

where:

l - liquid

s - solid

This is a single replacement reaction because an element in a compound is replaced by another element. Generally a single replacement reaction is represented as: A + BC → AC + B

Why do you use the same amount of water for each shape of ice?
Fiesta28 [93]

Answer:

Ice is a solid form of liquid. Water simply expands when it freezes.

The same amount of water for each shape of ice because the melting  rate of ice depends on the surface area of each shape. So the same amount of water or volume with a large surface area will remain frozen for longer time.
