Electronegativity is the property of the element to attract electrons to its nucleus. The trend of electronegativity in the periodic table is decreasing from right to left and decreasing from top to bottom. hence from the given elements, the element with the highest electronegativity should be A.beryllium
Answer:
Option A.
2Na + 2H2O —> 2NaOH + H2
Explanation:
To know which option is correct, we shall do a head count of the number of atoms present on both side to see which of them is balanced. This is illustrated below below:
For Option A:
2Na + 2H2O —> 2NaOH + H2
Reactant >>>>>>> Product
2 Na >>>>>>>>>>> 2 Na
4 H >>>>>>>>>>>> 4 H
2 O >>>>>>>>>>>> 2 O
Thus, the above equation is balanced.
For Option B:
2Na + 2H2O —> NaOH + H2
Reactant >>>>>>> Product
2 Na >>>>>>>>>>> 1 Na
4 H >>>>>>>>>>>> 3 H
2 O >>>>>>>>>>>> 1 O
Thus, the above equation is not balanced.
For Option C:
2Na + H2O —> 2NaOH + H2
Reactant >>>>>>> Product
2 Na >>>>>>>>>>> 2 Na
2 H >>>>>>>>>>>> 4 H
1 O >>>>>>>>>>>> 2 O
Thus, the above equation is not balanced.
For Option D:
Na + 2H2O —> NaOH + 2H2
Reactant >>>>>>> Product
1 Na >>>>>>>>>>> 1 Na
4 H >>>>>>>>>>>> 5 H
2 O >>>>>>>>>>>> 1 O
Thus, the above equation is not balanced.
From the illustrations made above, only option A is balanced.
1. Subscript is below
2. Coefficient large 2 indicates the number of moles
3. Atoms
1/2 O2 + H2 —> H2O
It’s the atoms that balance on each side
Notes that 1/2 is the coefficient and 2 is the subscript in H2 and H2O
Answer:
C and D
Explanation:
Claims based on science are claims that can be backed up by data and evidence. In the sentence "Data from ice cores show that global temperatures are rising dramatically.", the part "Data from" inclines that there is factually proof backing up the claim. Part of the sentence "Satellite imagery shows.." inclines that there is also proof/evidence backing this claim. The other two sentences are <em>opinions</em> based on science. Instead, they should give some sort of data/evidence that would support that claim.
Uranium, most uranium does derive from a star. However, not from our sun.
