Answer is: because they were using simple chemical reactions to transform elements, but that is possible only with nuclear reactions, which in that time were not possible to conduct.
Nuclear reactions can produce new elements, because number of protons and neutrons is changed, lead and gold have different atomic and mass numbers.
The electrons of an atom participates in a chemical reaction, chemical reactions involve the rearrangement of electrons, because there is transfer, loss, gain and sharing of electrons in chemical reactions, new elements are not formed.
Ionic bonds hold NaCl together
Option C. The object is returning to the start at a constant speed.
<h3>
Data points of the Position vs Time graph</h3>
The following data points will be used to determine the motion of the object.
<u>Position Time</u>
12 4
10 6
2 8
0 10
From the data above, the position of the object is decreasing towards zero or start point.
Thus, the object is returning to the start at a constant speed.

Solar winds. Plasma particles from the sun affect earth's atmosphere and cause magnetic interferance.
Answer:
Explanation:
The reaction between dimethyl malonate which is an active methylene group with an (∝, β-unsaturated carbonyl compound) i.e methyl vinyl ketone is known as a Micheal Addition reaction. The reaction mechanism starts with the base attack on the β-carbon to remove the acidic ∝-hydrogens and form a carbanion. The carbanion formed(enolate ion) attacks the methyl vinyl ketone(i.e. a nucleophilic attack at the β-carbon) to give a Micheal addition product, this is followed by the protonation to give the neutral product.
