Explanation:
When there occurs sharing of electrons between two chemically combining atoms then it forms a covalent bond. Generally, a covalent bond is formed between two non-metals.
An ionic bond is defined as the bond formed due to transfer of one or more number of electrons from one atom to another. An ionic bond is always formed between a metal and a non-metal.
Every atom of an element will have orbitals in which electrons are found. These orbitals are known as energy level.
A molecule is defined as the smallest particle present in a substance or atom.
A metallic bond is formed due to mobile valence electrons shared by positive nuclei in a metallic crystal.
Thus, we can conclude that given statements are correctly matched as follows.
1). a chemical bond formed by the electrostatic attraction between ions - ionic bond
2). a chemical bond formed by two electrons that are shared between two atoms - covalent bond
3). the orbitals of an atom where electrons are found - energy level
4). the smallest particle of a covalently bonded substance - molecule
5). a bond characteristic of metals in which mobile valence electrons are shared among positive nuclei in the metallic crystal - metallic bond
Explanation:
Reaction equation showing alpha decay in Uranium-238 is as follows.
It is known that an alpha particle is basically a helium nucleus and it contains 2 protons and 2 neutrons.
Symbol of an alpha particle is 
.
As atomic mass or weight is the sum of total number of protons and neutrons present in an atom.
Hence, the atomic weight of the alpha particle is (2 + 2) = 4.
