Answer:

Both metals and non metals.

Explanation:

The correct formula of baking soda is NaHCO₃,

An element is considered to be metal if it is able to give electron easily due to very low ionization energy.

A non metal is ready to accept electron easily due to high electron affinity.

In sodium bicarbonate :

Na: Sodium : metal

H : Hydrogen: non metal (although placed with first group, alkali metals, in the periodic table as it readily loses electron like metals)

C: Carbon: Non metal

O : Oxygen : Non metal.

So the compound contains both metals and non metals.

Double replacement :

2Na₃PO₄+3CaCl₂⇒6NaCl + Ca₃(PO₄)₂

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

1. A single replacement reaction is a chemical reaction in which one element replaces the other elements of a compound to produce new elements and compounds

2. Double-Replacement reactions. Happens if there is an ion exchange between two ion compounds in the reactant to form two new ion compounds in the product

3. Combination/syntesis : 2 or more reactants combine to form a new compound

4. Decomposition : the reactant is decomposed into 2/more products

If we look at the reaction options available, all of them can be included in the double replacement reaction, but we only choose the reaction from Sodium phosphate and Calcium chloride which leads to options: C because it is balanced (from the number of atoms in the same reactant and product) and is in accordance with the chemical formula of each compound (both products and reactants)

Living organisms use atoms from sugar molecules combined with other elements to form lipids and nucleic acids. Lipids are hydrophobic organic compounds composed of carbon and a high ratio of hydrogen to oxygen. Nucleic acids are an acidic polymer of nucleotides found or produced in the cell nucleus.
