Answer:

Compound.

Explanation:

A compound is a made up of two or more than two different elements. It can be broken down into smaller molecules.Elements are combined to form a compound by chemical bonding like ionic bonding and covalent bonding.

Different compounds of different elements can be broken down into the chemical reaction called decomposition reaction. For example:

Using electrolysis, we can break down water into its elements hydrogen and oxygen.

The answer is a compound because it is only a compound that can be broken to elements. for eg. H2o is a compound and be broken to element of 2 molecules of hydrogen and oxygen

Water is capable of dissolving a variety of different substances, which is why it is such a good solvent. It is often called the
Serggg [28]

Answer:

Explanation:

In this case the answer would be

Water is a polar molecule with positive and negative side

Now since these negative and positives are present in the water molecule . In easy terms when a substance reacts with water .the negative part of water ( oxygen ) reacts with the positive part of the substance and the positive part of the water ( hydrogen) reacts with negative part of the substance .if you look at the reason . Water is held up by one of the strongest attraction forces available .since most substances have weaker attraction forces between them ,therefore water can easily overcome them with its forces. Thus giving it the ability to dissolve a variety of substances

Which is true when a reaction has reached equalibrium
Serggg [28]
The answer should be: <span>D. The reaction rate is equal in both directions

In the equilibrium state, the rate of reaction to the right is same as the reaction to the left. Because of this, the concentration of the reactant and product will be kept same.
It might seem like the reaction is stopped because there is no change in the concentration, but it wasn't.  Adding a reactant or product will break the equilibrium state.</span>

What kind of bond will form between the atoms?
Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

ionic bond:

Bond formed when an atom donates its electron and other atom receives those electrons.

polar covalent:

Bond formed by equal sharing of electrons between both the atoms and there is an electronegativity difference between the two atoms.

Nonpolar covalent:

Bond formed by equal sharing of electrons between both the atoms and there is no electronegativity difference between the two atoms.

Metallic:

Formed between two metals.

So the bond between :

Phosphorus and chlorine-polar covalent bond as it is formed by equal sharing of electrons between both the atoms and there is an electronegativity difference between the two atoms.

Potassium and oxygen -ionic bond as here potassium donates its electron and oxygen receives those electrons

Fluorine and fluorine -Non polar covalent bond as formed by equal sharing of electrons between both the atoms and there is no electronegativity difference between the two atoms.

Copper and aluminum-metallic bond as Formed between two metals.

Carbon and fluorine -polar covalent bond as it is formed by equal sharing of electrons between both the atoms and there is an electronegativity difference between the two atoms.

Carbon and hydrogen --Non polar covalent bond as formed by equal sharing of electrons between both the atoms and there is no electronegativity difference between the two atoms.

Aluminum and oxygen--ionic bond as here aluminum donates its electron and oxygen receives those electrons

Silver and copper --metallic bond as Formed between two metals.

In which location would a free neutron from a decaying U-235 atom be most likely to cause another atom to go split?
Juliette [100K]

Answer:

The correct answer is option B

B. In a sample of enriched uranium

Explanation:

Nuclear fission is a nuclear reaction whereby large nucleus of an atom is break down into smaller parts lighter nuclei or daughter nuclei and release large amount of energy, due to the large amount of energy there are alot of heat released.

During the process large nucleous is bombarded by the neutrons, as a result of this the nucleous becomes disintegrated because it's unstable and their is production of lighter nuclei as well as neutrons and energy.

When the U -235 particles are compacted together there result a high energy neutron which can bombard another Uranium - 235 molecule in the region. uranium is enriched with more of the fissile uranium isotope, then when it is enriched it can be used to make atomic reactors and explosives like bombs.
