what is it?? plss helpp taking exam rn
Explanation:
Answer: <em>The number placed in front of a compound to balance a chemical reaction is called </em><em><u>coefficient</u></em>.
Explanation:
Assume this general form for a <em>chemical equation</em>:
- <em>a</em>A + <em>b</em>B → <em>c</em>C + <em>d</em>D
The letters <em>a, b, c, </em>and <em>d,</em> in front of each compound A, B, C, and D, are called coefficients and indicate the number of formula units (molecules or ions) that take part in the equation.
Those coefficients are needed to <em>balance the equation</em> and ensure compliance with the law of mass conservation.
This example shows it:
- Word equation: hydrogen + oxygen yields water
- Chemical equation: H₂ (g) + O₂(g) → H₂O(g)
- Balance, adding the coefficients so that the number of each kind of atoms is the same on the left and the right of the chemical equation:
H₂ (g) + 2O₂(g) → 2H₂O(g)
In that equation:
- The coefficient of H₂ (g) on the left is 1 (it is not written)
- The coefficient of O₂(g) on the left is 2
- The coefficient of H₂O(g) on the right is 2
You read it as: 1 mole of gaseous hydrogen and 2 moles of gaseous oxygen yield 2 moles of water vapor.
Answer: the statement that is not true is the second one: <span>It only occurs in very small atoms with low mass.
Explanation:
</span><span>The nuclear fission consists in the division or fragmentation of an atomic nuclei into smaller fragments releasing huge amounts of energy.
The biggest and heaviest atoms are unstable, meaning that they gain stability by splitting into smaller, lighter atoms.
So, the third given statement contradicts the previous fact.
That is why most of the heaviest elements have not been found naturally but have been created synthetically and have very short life times.

To determine if the compound is an ionic compound, heat it up until the compound reaches its melting point and become molten. Use the molten form to set up an electric circuit and see if the compound will conduct electricity. If the compound conduct electricity then it is an ionic compound. If it does not conduct electricity, it is not an ionic compound. Ionic compounds usually conduct electricity in their molten forms.<span />
The periodic table is a representative of all elements we know today.
