Chemistry

Nuclear fission is the process of which a large nucleus splits into two smaller nuclei with the release of energy and neutron. In simpler words, nuclear fission is the process in which a nucleus is split into two smaller fragments or pieces (nuclei) and so energy and neutrons are released. The resulting pieces of this fission process have less combined mass than the original piece (nucleus) and the missing was is converted into nuclear energy.

Which of the following is true for balancing equations?
algol [13]

Answer:

A.

Explanation:

An equation with the equal amount and proportion of atoms of each element on both sides of the reaction is commonly referred to as a balanced chemical equation.

The law of conservation of matter asserts that no observable and empirical change in the amount of matter occurs within a conventional chemical process. As a result, each element in the product would have the same equal amount or numbers of atoms as the reactants.

1 . a chemical bond formed by the electrostatic attraction between ions covalent bond
liberstina [14]

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
