Answer:

See below.

Explanation:

They both have 1 valency electron so will be metallic and in the same Group (Group 1) of the Periodic Table, so will have similar properties.

Answer:

This question is incomplete

Explanation:

  • X has an atomic number of 11 and hence it's sodium (Na) while Y has an atomic number of 3 and hence it is Lithium (Li).
  • The atomic mass of X is 23 while that of Y is 7
  • X has three electron shells while Y has two electron shells
  • X and Y cannot form a compound as there ions are both positively charged (cations). However, there ions both have a charge of +1; hence are univalent positive metals.
  • They are both metals and are found in group 1 of the periodic table
  • The are highly reactive metals because they have just one electron in there outermost shell
  • They react with halogens in group 7 to form salts
  • They dissolve in water to form alkaline

Organisms, or living things are made of tiny particles that can join together and make larger structures.
zzz [600]
Living things are highly organized and structured, following a hierarchy of scale from small to large. The atom is the smallest and most fundamental unit of matter. It consists of a nucleus surrounded by electrons. Atoms combine to form molecules, which are chemical structures consisting of at least two atoms held together by a chemical bond. In plants, animals, and many other types of organisms, molecules come together in specific ways to create structures called organelles. Organelles are small structures that exist within cells and perform specialized functions. As discussed in more detail below, all living things are made of one or more cells.

The rays produced in a cathode tube are
wel

Answer:

Electrons

Explanation:

Cathode rays carry electronic currents through the tube. Electrons were first discovered as the constituents of cathode rays. J.J. Thomson used the cathode ray tube to determine that atoms had small negatively charged particles inside of them, which he called “electrons.”

guapka [62]

Answer:15g

Explanation:

According to the law of conservation of mass, the mass of the products in a chemical reaction must equal the mass of the reactants.

10g + 5g ➡️ 15g
