Answer:
The reaction combines the sodium with the hydrogen and oxygen in water to form sodium hydroxide and hydrogen gas, and you get a lot of energy released as heat as well. This heat actually melts any remaining sodium that has not reacted yet, and ignites the hydrogen gas, so you get the bang and the flash.

Answer:
Many plants have thorns on their stems or leaves. What is the MOST likely explanation for the evolution of thorns?
A) Thorns help plants produce more food from photosynthesis.
B) Thorns are an example of a mutation that arises in the genetic code of plants.
C) Thorns help plants to conserve resources like water and soil nutrients that may be used by other organisms.
D) Thorns are an adaptation that some plants have evolved in order to discourage herbivores from eating the plant.
2)
Explanation:
NaHCO3 is a product of a strong base and a weak acid reaction. Thus it has weak basic properties.
HCO3- ion is actually amphoteric, which means it can act as a base or an acid. But it is weaker than a strong acid or a strong base.
<span>HCO3- is amphoteric meaning it acts both as a B.L. Acid and a B.L. Base.. which is why it's used to neutralize both acid and base spills in the lab.</span>

Answer:
Rutherfords
Explanation:
The model of the atom supported by Bohr's hydrogen experiment is the Rutherford's model of the atom.
Rutherford through his experiment on gold foil suggested the atomic model of the atom. The model posits that an atom has a small positively charged center(nucleus) where nearly all the mass is concentrated.
- Surrounding the nucleus is the large space containing electrons.
- In the Bohr's model of the atom, he suggested that the extranuclear space of the atom is made up of electrons in specific spherical orbits around the nucleus.
