Explanation:

A property which causes change in chemical composition of a substance is known as a chemical property. For example, reactivity, toxicity, combustion etc.

Whereas a property which causes no change in chemical composition of a substance is known as a physical property. For example, mass, volume, density etc.

Sodium is a very reactive metal and it reacts readily with oxygen, water etc. So, when sodium is added to water then occurrence of an orange flame represents its reactivity.

Thus, based on given observation it can be concluded that chemical reaction takes place when sodium is added to water.

Name the types of radiation known to be emitted by radioactive elements.
nikitadnepr [17]

Answer : The types of radiation known to be emitted by radioactive elements are, alpha particles, beta particles, or gamma rays.

Explanation :

Radioactive decay : It the process in which an unstable atomic nucleus loses energy by emitting the radiations like, alpha particles, beta particles, or gamma rays.

The naturally occurring radioactive elements are, radium, thorium, and uranium.

Alpha particle : It is also known as alpha radiation or alpha ray that consists of 2 protons and 2 neutrons that are bound together into a particle that is identical to the helium nucleus. It is produced in the process of alpha decay.

Beta particle : It is also known as beta radiation or beta ray. During the beta decay process, a high energy and speed electron or positron are emitted by the radioactive decay of atomic nucleus.

Gamma particle : It is also a gamma radiation or gamma ray that is arising from the radioactive decay of atomic nuclei. It has shortest wavelength waves and imparts high photon energy can pass through most forms of matters because they have no mass.

Answer:

                    Polyatomic Ionic Compound

Explanation:

                     In given statement the compound given is called as Sodium oleate this means that when Oleic acid is treated with NaOH then it forms.

                     In chemistry there are few species which are involved in the formation of compounds.

  (i) Atoms:

                  It is very common that atoms of different elements combine to form compound through covalent bond. For example, H₂, O₂, N₂, F₂ e.t.c.

   (i) Ions:

                  Other than covalent compounds we have ionic compounds. Ionic compounds are made up of ions. These ions forming the ionic compounds can be monatomic like Na⁺, Br⁻, Mg²⁺, Al³⁺, N⁻³ or they can be polyatomic like CO₃²⁻, SO₄²⁻, NH₄⁺, PO₄³⁻ e.t.c.

    (iii) Polyatomic Ions:

                                     In polyatomic ions we find a charge on a molecule which contains two or more atoms bonded covalently. Hence, in given compound we have a long chain of molecule containing a negative charge neutralized by opposite +ve charged sodium ion. Hence, Sodium oleate is a polyatomic ionic compound.
