Answer:
They are more stable than alkanes
Explanation:
- <em><u>Alkenes</u></em><em><u> are a type of unsaturated hydrocarbons </u></em>which means they have a<u> double bond</u> in their structure, or lack maximum number of hydrogen atoms on each carbon.
- Alkenes have a general formula of CnH2n. They are called <u>unsaturated hydrocarbons</u> since they have a double bond. They are therefore less stable compared to alkanes and also are readily reactive.
Explanation
NaCl: Ionic crystal lattice forces
Hg: Metallic bonding
CO₂: London dispersion forces
CH₄: London dispersion forces
Li₂O: Ionic crystal lattice forces
Ag: Metallic bonds
Ionic crystal lattice forces are strong electrostatic force of attraction between oppositely charged ions arranged into a crystal lattice of ionic compound. NaCl and Li₂O are ionic compounds
London dispersion forces holds the molecules of carbon dioxide and methane. They are weak attractions found between non-polar (and polar) molecules.
Metallic bonds exists between Mercury and Gold atoms. This is due to sea of electrons present.

Answer:
Sodium is a silvery-white metal that reacts with chlorine gas, which is a yellow-greenish gas that is toxic. The reaction gives off a lot of heat. After the reaction, which statement is true about the chemical properties of the product, sodium chloride?
Pure sodium reacts violently and sometimes explosively with water producing sodium hydroxide, hydrogen gas and heat
2Na(s) + 2H2O(l) → 2NaOH(aq) + H2(g)
Chlorine is a very poisonous yellow green gas with a sharp odour that was used in gas warfare during WW1
Sodium and chlorine reacts with each other, however, to produce one of the most familiar substance used in cooking and preservation industry today Sodium Chloride or Common salt or table salt in the irreversible equation;
2Na(s) + Cl2(g) → 2NaCl(s)
Explanation:
It is easy to see why this reaction takes place so readily sodium has one electron in its outermost valence shell while chlorine has seven electrons in its valence shell. when sodium atom transfers one electron to chlorine atom forming a sodium cation (Na+) and a chloride anion (Cl-) both ions have complete valence shells and are energetically more stable. the reaction is extremely exothermic, producing a bright yellow light and a great deal of heat and fumes of sodium chloride.
In a reaction observation of the reaction process you will see sodium flares up almost immediately upon reaction with water.
