Chemistry
1 answer:
olga nikolaevna [1]3 years ago
4 0

Sr is  below Ca and to the right of Rb in the Periodic Table (see the attached image).

Reactivity increases from <em>top to bottom of a Group</em>. Sr is below Ca, so it is <em>more reactive</em> than Ca.

Reactivity decreases from <em>left to right in a Period</em>. Sr is to the right of Rb, so it is <em>less reactive</em> than Rb.

Can somebody please describe in detail the difference between a chemical and physical change/reaction. Please provide examples a
Naddika [18.5K]

Answer

A chemical change happens when one chemical substance is transformed into one or more different substances, such as when iron becomes rust. Chemical changes occur through the process of chemical reactions, and the resulting substances have different properties because their atoms and molecules are arranged differently.

Physical changes are changes affecting the form of a chemical substance, but not its chemical composition. Physical changes are used to separate mixtures into their component compounds, but can not usually be used to separate compounds into chemical elements or simpler compounds
