A) Burning
Burning is a chemical reaction while the other three answers are physical reactions.
The question requires us to explain the differences in radii of neutral atoms, cations and anions.
To answer this question, we need to keep in mind that a neutral atom presents the same number of protons (positive particles) and electrons (negative particles). Another important information is that the protons are located in the nucleus of the atom, while the electrons are around the nucleus. Also, there is an electrostatic force between protons and electrons, which means that they the protons tend to attract the electrons to the nucleus.
While a neutral atom presents the same number of protons and electrons, a cation is an ion with positive charge, which means it has lost one or more electrons. In a cation, the balance between protons and electrons doesn't exist anymore: now, there is more positive than negative charge (more protons than electrons), and the overall attractive force that the protons have for the electrons is increased. As a result, the electrons stay closer to the nucleus and the radius of a cation is smaller than the neutral atom from which it was derived.
On the other side, anions present negative charge, which means they have received electrons. Similarly to cations, the balance between protons and electrons doesn't exist anymore, but in this case, there are more electrons than protons. In an anion, the overall attractive force that the protons have for the electrons is decreased. As a result, the electrons are "more free" to move and, as they are not so attracted to the nucleus, they tend to stay farther from the positive nucleus compared to the neutral atom - because of this, the radius of an anion is larger than the neutral atom from which it was derived.
Answer:
the equation is balanced because there are 8 atoms of carbon, 26 atoms of oxygen, and 20 atoms of hydrogen. on each side of the equation.

Answer:
Heterogeneous mixture
Explanation:
A homogeneous mixture is defined as a mixture in which the constituents of the mixture are uniformly distributed. A typical example of a homogeneous mixture is when a salt is dissolved in water.
A heterogeneous mixture refers to a kind of mixture whereby the composition of the mixture is not uniform. A typically example of a heterogeneous mixture is non-homogenized milk.
Since non-homogenized milk is not homogeneous, the cream rises to the top and separates from the rest of the mixture because the emulsion has not been stabilized. However, homogenized milk is just milk whose emulsion has been stabilized the cream does not separate when left to stand.
The answer is “Heat Conduction”
