<span>The generalized reaction for chemical decomposition is: AB → A + B
NaOH is sodium hydroxide. When sodium and water is combined it makes sodium hydroxide and hydrogen
When sodium hydroxide decomposes under thermal decomposition, it breaks down into sodium oxide and water.
Thus, </span><span>C) 2NaOH Na2O + H2O</span>
Argon-40 because it is the isotope with the closest mass to the atomic mass of the element. Making it more stable than the others allowing it to be the most abundant in nature.
Answer is: Sb(g) → Sb⁺(g) + e⁻.
Neutral atom in gas state lose one valence electron and become cation with postive charge.
<span>The first ionisation energy is the energy required to remove one mole of the valence electrons from one mole of gaseous atoms to produce one mole of gaseous ions each with a charge of 1+.</span>
<span>Most metals have strong
metallic bond, because strong electrostatic attractive force
between valence electrons (metals usually
have low ionization energy and lose electrons easy) and positively
charged metal ions.

<span>mass SO2 = 4.5 x 10^23 molecules x (1 mole / 6.023 x10^23 molecules) x (64 g/mol)
mass SO2 = 48 grams ==== answer </span>
