No, it is impossible.

Chemical reactions does not change or turn elements into different elements.

Changing an element implies to modify its atomic number (the number of protons in the nucleus).

Chemical reactions do not modifiy the nuclei of the elements involved.

Chemical reactions imply the formation or rupture of bonds between elements. Bonds are union of elements at the level of electrons.So, formation or rupture of bonds involve only a different combination of the atoms, never modifications of the atoms at the level of nuclei or parts of nuclei.

Arrange the following elements in order from least to greatest electronegativity:<br> Ca, F, Ne, Fe?
Burka [1]

Answer:

The electronegativity from order of least to highest is:

Ne, Ca, Fe, F

Explanation:

Elements in the periodic table have been arranged based on their level of electronegativity (which is the ability of an atom to attract electrons).

According to Paulings scale of rating elements based on their electronegativity, the electronegativity value of Fe, Ca, Ne, and F are 1.83, 1, 0 and 3.98 respectively.

Hence, based on Pauling scale, the order of electronegativity from least to highest is:

Ne > Ca > Fe > F

Balance these chemical equations mg(s)_ + _N2(g) = _mg3N2
Salsk061 [2.6K]

Answer:

3 Mg(s) + N_2(g) = Mg_3N_2(s)

Explanation:

The valance of magnesium atom is  +2

While the valence of nitrogen atom is - 3

Let us first write the first  half-reactions

Mg ---> Mg^{2+} + 2e^{-}

The second half reaction is

2N + 6e^-  -----> N_2

Adding the above two reactions and writing the final reaction, we get -

Mg + N2 = Mg_3N_2

The balance equation is

3 Mg(s) + N_2(g) = Mg_3N_2(s)
