The characteristics of two different types of reactions are shown downwards
a_sh-v [17]

Answer:

Valence electrons are involved in Reaction B but not in Reaction A.

Explanation:

The description of reaction A in which protons are lost or gained by the atom of the element is a nuclear reaction. In nuclear reactions, the nucleons which are the protons and neutrons drives the reaction. No valence electrons in the orbiting shells are involved in this kind of reaction. During this type of reaction, an atom changes it identity to that of another.

Reaction B in which no identity change occurs is a chemical reaction. In chemical reactions bonds are formed by the atoms using the valence electrons that orbits round the central nucleus. The atoms remain the same but it chose to attain stability and an inert configuration by losing or gaining electrons.

A block of metal has a mass of 0.0694 kg. It displaces 3.6 mL of water. What is it’s density in g/cm^3
Ivan

Answer:

19.28 g/cm^3 to the nearest hundredth.

Explanation:

The volume of water displaced = the volume of the metal.

density = mass / volume

0.0694 kg = 0.0694 * 1000

=  69.4 g.

Density = 69.4 / 3.6

= 19.28 g/cm^3.

Which has the greater polarizing power, Li+ or Be2+ and why?
kvasek [131]

Answer:

Polarizing power refers to an atoms ability to pull an electron toward it, polarizing the atom the electron comes from. Since cations are positive, they are able to attract electrons toward themselves. Anions are negative and so do not attract more electrons.

Therefore, Be2+ has a higher polarizing power because it has a higher quantitiy of protons, hence a higher polarizing power.
