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.

Answer:

Coal puts out more Co2 emissions than Oil or Gas and Nuclear energy plants don't put out any pollution.

Explanation:

Even though Coal is your answer it is actually a very clean form of generating energy. Not only is it very clean but it is the most effecient means. Solar and Wind power can't even come close to the production and turnover that Coal, Gas, and Oil can. Wind Turbines are so innefficent that they somtimes don't even pay off what it took to build them in thier lifetime of service. The production of Wind Turbines puts out more pollution than any of the Coal or Natural Gas Plants. Solar power is not very efficent either but it is on it's way. It is also very expensive.
