Answer: Option D.

Mechanical and chemical digestion occur in the mouth but only chemical digestion occur in the stomach.

Explanation:

Digestion is the breakdown of larger food particles into smaller ones that can be absorb by the body and pass out the waste product or undigested food. There are two methods digestion occurs in the body and they are; mechanical and chemical digestion.

Mechanical digestion is the physical breakdown of food into smaller pieces. It begins in the mouth when food are chewed.

Chemical digestion involves the breakdown of food into nutrients. This begin in the mouth when food is mixed with saliva and it continue in the stomach where enzymes act on the food.

Elements are organized on the periodic table based on their properties. Which statement correctly predicts and explains the chem

Elanso [62]

Answer is: a. Rubidium (Rb) is more reactive than strontium (Sr) because strontium atoms must lose more electrons.

The ionization energy (Ei) is the minimum amount of energy required to remove the valence electron, when element lose electrons, oxidation number of element grows (oxidation process).

Alkaline metals (group 1), in this example rubidium, have lowest ionizations energy and easy remove valence electrons (one electron), they are most reactive metals.

Earth alkaline metals (group 2), in this example strontium, have higher ionization energy than alkaline metals, because they have two valence electrons, they are less reactive.

Rubidium electron configuration: ₃₇Rb 1s²2s²2p⁶3s²3p⁶3d¹⁰4s²4p⁶5s¹; one valence electron is 5s¹ orbital.

Strontium electron configuration: ₃₈Sr 1s²2s²2p⁶3s²3p⁶3d¹⁰4s²4p⁶5s²; two valence electrons is 5s² orbital.

Silicon reacts with carbon dioxide to form silicon carbide sic and silicon dioxide

andrew-mc [135]

The question is incomplete, here is the complete question:

Silicon reacts with carbon dioxide to form silicon carbide and silicon dioxide. Write the balanced chemical equation.

Answer: The balanced chemical equation is written below.

Explanation:

Every balanced chemical equation follows law of conservation of mass.

A balanced chemical equation is defined as the equation in which total number of individual atoms on the reactant side is equal to the total number of individual atoms on product side.

The balanced chemical equation for the reaction of silicon and carbon dioxide follows:

$2Si+CO_2\rightarrow SiC+SiO_2$

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

2 moles of silicon reacts with 1 mole of carbon dioxide gas to produce 1 mole of silicon carbide and 1 mole of silicon dioxide

Hence, the balanced chemical equation is written above.
