The answer is a. fusion. The reaction formed a different element, so this is not a chemical reaction. Then c and d are not correct. Two atoms form one atom, so it is fusion.

The electronic configuration of an element is given below.
Amiraneli [1.4K]

 The statement  which  is true  about  the reactivity  of  element  with          1S²2S²2P⁶3S¹   is

 it is reactive   because it has to lose one  electron  to have  a full  outermost  energy  level.

<u><em>Explanation</em></u>

  • <u><em> </em></u>Element  with     1S²2S²2P⁶3S¹  electron configuration  is    a sodium  metal.
  •    sodium  has  one  electron  in the outermost energy level.
  • for  sodium to have  a full  outermost  energy level (  8 electrons) it   loses  the  1  electron   in 3S¹ to  form   a positively  charged ion. (Na⁺)

Its minerals will have crystals.
Mice21 [21]
A crystal is any solid that has an organized structure. ... So it is a prerequisite to be a crystal in order to be a mineral. All minerals, therefore, form crystals. On the other hand, there are crystals that are not minerals, because they are not naturally occuring, or because they are not inorganic

katrin2010 [14]
A physical property of an element is a property of an element that can observed or measured without changing the chemical nature of the element.

A chemical property of an element is a property of an element that can only be observed or measure when the chemical property of the element is altered or changed.

Based on this;
The boiling point of bromine is a physical property of bromine.
The high reactivity of bromine with many elements is a chemical property of bromine.
