Answer: Scientists are working on nuclear fusion process. Nuclear fusion is the process in which two atomic nuclei combine to form another nuclei. In the process either energy is absorbed or released due to the difference in the mass of reactants and products.
Explanation:
Thus BeF2 is of most covalent character.
Anyways, covalent/ionic character is a bit tricky to figure out; we measure the difference in electronegativity of two elements bonding together and we use the following rule of thumb: if the charge is 0 (or a little more), the bond is non-polar covalent; if the charge is > 0 but < 2.0 (some references say 1.7), the bond is polar covalent; if the charge is > 2.0 then the bond is ionic. Covalent character refers to smaller electronegativity difference while ionic character refers to greater electronegativity difference.
Now, notice all of our bonds are with F, fluorine, which has the highest electronegativity of 3.98. This means that to determine character we need to consider the electronegativities of the other elements -- whichever has the greatest electronegativity has the least difference and most covalent character.
Na, sodium, has electronegativity of 0.93, so our difference is ~3 -- meaning our bond is ionic. Ca, calcium, has 1.00, leaving our difference to again be ~3 and therefore the bond is ionic. Be, beryllium, has 1.57 yielding a difference of ~2.5, meaning we're still dealing with ionic bond. Cs, cesium, has 0.79, meaning our difference is again ~3 and therefore again our compound is of ionic bond. Lastly, we have Sr, strontium, with an electronegativity of 0.95 and therefore again a difference of roughly 3 and an ionic bond.

Answer:
Explanation:
1 = The given chemical reaction does not follow the law of conservation of mass because,
2 = Four hydrogen atoms are present in reactant side and two hydrogen atoms are present in product side.
3 = 1 ) The given chemical reaction does not follow the law of conservation of mass because,
CH₄ + O₂ → CO₂ + H₂O
16 g + 32 g 44 g + 18 g
48 g 62 g
Law of conservation of mass:
This law stated that mass can not be created or destroyed in chemical reaction. It just changed from one to another form.
For example:
C₂H₄ + 3O₂ → 2CO₂ + 2H₂O
28 g + 96 g = 88 g + 36 g
124 g = 124 g
