Answer:

Both gives hydroxides, but

Calcium reacts with water to give calcium hydroxide Ca(OH)2. this product is slightly soluble in water.

Aluminium is less reactive than Ca, so it reacts with only steam, to give aluminium hydroxide Al(OH)3. This product is insoluble in water.

Answer:

The correct answer is : No, because there are 4 hydrogen atoms on the reactants side and 2 on the products side.

Explanation:

$NH_4NO_3\rightarrow N_2O+H_2O$

The given reaction equation is not balanced because:

Number of hydrogen atoms on both sides are not equal that is 4 on reactants side and 2 on products side.
Number of oxygen atoms on both sides are not equal that is 3 on reactants side and 2 on products side.

In a balanced chemical equation number of atoms of each elements are equal on both sides.

So, the balanced chemical equation will be:

$NH_4NO_3\rightarrow N_2O+2H_2O$

Which substance contains bonds that involve a transfer of electrons from one atom to another

cestrela7 [59]

An ionic bond is a type of chemical bond formed through an electrostatic attraction between two oppositely charged ions. Ionic bonds are formed between a cation, which is usually a metal, and an anion, which is usually a nonmetal. A covalent bond involves a pair of electrons being shared between atoms.
