Chemistry
1 answer:
erastova [34]4 years ago
4 0

Answer:

The correct option is;

True

Explanation:

Combustion is a chemical reaction between components of a combustion reaction which are;

1) A fuel

2) An oxidizing agent

The oxidizing agent or oxidant in a combustion reaction consist mainly of oxygen.

A combustion reaction is an oxidation and reduction (redox) heat evolving (exothermic) reaction that takes place at high temperatures and produces smoke which consists of gaseous mixture of chemicals and sometimes very small solid particles

An exothermic reaction can be classed either as rapid, spontaneous, or explosive

A spontaneous exothermic reaction is one that begins on its own in atmospheric conditions and room temperature as the heat required to begin the reaction is produced by the initial oxidation of the reacting fuel

Example of a substance that undergoes spontaneous oxidation reaction is white phosphorus.

- Explain how ionic bonds, covalent bonds, and metallic bonds each form and how.
-Dominant- [34]

Answer:  -Ionic bonds form when one atom provides electrons to another atom. Covalent Bonds: Covalent bonds form when two atom shares their valence electrons. Metallic Bonds: Metallic bonds form when a variable number of atoms share a variable number of electrons in a metal lattice.

-Covalent Bonds.

Covalent Compounds. Contain no metals and no ions. Covalent compounds contain nonmetals only.

Example:

Ionic Compounds. A metal with a non-metal. Doesn't use prefixes for naming. Name the metal and change the nonmetal ending to -ide.

Explanation: Ionic bonds form when a nonmetal and a metal exchange electrons, while covalent bonds form when electrons are shared between two nonmetals. An ionic bond is a type of chemical bond formed through an electrostatic attraction between two oppositely charged ions.

What is one of the primary unanswered questions about the origin of the universe? What type of elements formed first? Approximat
torisob [31]

Answer: last option, what came before the big bang?

Explanation:

The big bang theory states that the universe started as a dense nucleus of matter: a huge amount of matter concentrated in a tiny spot.

This is the conclusion of equations and evidences that prove that the universe has been and continuous to expand: since it has been expanding, there was a moment when it was as small and dense as it is possible.

So, the expansion is the result of violent explosion.

The time during which the expansion has been happening (this is how long ago the big bang occured) has been estimated thanks the the observation of the speed of recesion of the galaxies, but nothing can be told about what came before the bing bang occured.
