Answer:
When a sodium atom transfers an electron to a chlorine atom, forming a sodium cation (Na+) and a chloride anion (Cl-), both ions have complete valence shells, and are energetically more stable. The reaction is extremely exothermic, producing a bright yellow light and a great deal of heat energy.
The right answer is 2. A beta particle
Answer:
1) a) 2 C2H2 + 3O2 --> 2CO2 + 2H2O
b) Combustion Reaction
c) Bonds will be broken on the reactant side which will require energy.
d) It agrees with the law of conservation of mass because there are the same amount of molecules of each element on both sides of the equation, meaning mass was not created nor destroyed.
2) a) 2Na + Cl2 --> 2NaCl
Synthesis
b) 2Fe + O2 --> 2FeO
Synthesis
