<u>Explanation</u>:
A chemical equation is said to be balanced when the total number of atoms present on the reactants side is equal to the total number of atoms present on the product side.
The unbalanced chemical equation is as follows,
Ca
(
s
)
+
N
2
(

) → Ca
3

(

To balance this equation, you need to look at how many atoms of each element are present on each side of the chemical equation.
Calcium has 1 atom on the reactant and 3 on the products side. To balance the reaction we need to multiply the calcium atom by 3 on the reactants side.

Now Nitrogen has a coefficient of 2 on both sides of the reaction. Hence the balanced chemical equation will thus be

Answer:
B and C
Explanation:
The correct answer is Condensation and Deposition
Explanation:
To delineate the the nature of the bonds that would be formed between the two elements, let us first write the electronic configuration of the two species;
Be = 2, 2
F = 2, 7
Beryllium is a metal with two valence electrons whereas fluorine is a halogen with seven valence electrons.
When Be loses two electrons it becomes isoelectronic with He;
Be → Be²⁺ + 2e⁻
Also, when fluorine gains an electron, it becomes isoelectronic with Ne;
F + e⁻ → F⁻
This loss and gain of electrons between the two elements creates an electrostatic attraction them and they enter into an electrovalent bond.
Hence;
Be²⁺ + 2F⁻ → BeF₂
Answer:
0.808 M
Explanation:
Using Raoult's Law
where:
= vapor pressure of sea water( solution) = 23.09 mmHg
= vapor pressure of pure water (solute) = 23.76 mmHg
= mole fraction of water
∴
------ equation (1)
------ equation (2)
where; 
number of moles of sea water
number of moles of pure water
equating above equation 1 and 2; we have :
NOW, Molarity = 
As we assume that the sea water contains only NaCl, if NaCl dissociates to Na⁺ and Cl⁻; we have
