The reactivity depends on the elements valence electrons. The need to be stable will make an element become more reactive, In order for an atom to be stable, it needs 8 valence electrons in its outer shell. 

Since Calcium is in group 2, it has 2 valence electrons, and would rather give up the electrons. While Sulfur has 6, it would need to gain 2 more to be stable, making it more reactive.

An atoms valence is the amount of electrons in the outer ring and atoms like to have a valence of 8 so the closer to having 8 in the outer ring the more reactive the atom is so since both elements are 2 away from a valence of 8 theyre equally reactive

How does carbon 14 work
Verdich [7]

Carbon-14 dating is a way of determining the age of certain archeological artifacts of a biological origin up to about 50,000 years old. It is used in dating things such as bone, cloth, wood and plant fibers that were created in the relatively recent past by human activities.

Another chem question I need help with (multiple choice)
Andreyy89

Answer:

The answer to your question is letter B, 2-methylhexane.

Explanation:

Remember that for naming organic compounds first, we need to look for the largest chain of carbons.

In your example, the largest chain is horizontal and has 6 carbons.

Later, we need to circle all the branches, in your example there is only one branch located close to the left side

After that, we number the carbons of the main chain, starting in the corner with more branches, in your example we start from the first carbon on the left.

Finally, start naming the number of the carbon branch, later hte name of the branch and finally the name of the main chain.

Describe in your own words, in terms of particle movement and energy, what occurs when a liquid is cooled to its freezing point.
IRINA_888 [86]
Liquids have free and fast moving particles. Liquids do not take a specific shape unless they are enclosed such as in a bottle. Anyway, since they are free flowing when they freeze, their movement becomes very slow. Eventually the particles will not have room to move as they used to and will be held in one place. The particles are still moving but they are only shaking or vibrating in the same place. You can't even tell this movement is happening, and that is what happens when liquid freezes.
