Answer:

A reactive metal has the ability to easily lose an electron and acquire a positive charge. Sodium easily loses electrons and acquires a positive charge. Sodium easily lose electrons than magnesium and get oxidized to easily.

What is an ionic compound? Write an example.
Flura [38]
An ionic compound is a compound between a metal and a non metal where the metal (normally from group 1 or 2) transferrs an electron to the non metal ( most commonly from group 6 or 7) . this is so that both atoms have a full outer shell of electrons. the metal gains a positive charge and the non metal a negative charge. they are held together by electrostatic forces of attraction. an example would be sodium chloride (salt) sodium is in group 1 and chlorine in group 7 so sodium transfers one electron :)

Masteriza [31]

Answer:

I wouldn't be entirely sure, but I believe your teacher means the energy as in being transferred such as when you are cooking something and how it varies.  Avocado oil has a higher content of unsaturated fats. Olive oil contains a high ratio of monounsaturated fatty acids to satured fatty acids. Avocado oil has a very high smoke point, between 480°F and 520°F (270°C). The oil is a good choice for stir-fry recipes and other high-temperature cooking. It is ideal for searing meats and frying in a wok.

Olive oil’s smoke point varies depending on the processing and the grade. Light olive oil has a smoke point of 430°F, making it suitable for medium-heat frying.

Extra virgin olive oil has a low smoke point, around 220°F. It is unsuitable for high-temperature cooking or frying.

You should keep in mind that when you heat oil to its smoking point, it loses its nutrient content and becomes dangerous for consumption. It leads to the formation of toxic compounds and harmful free radicals which are carcinogenic.

Explanation:

All oils are different.  The "smoke point" of the oil is how the oil is classified.  The smoke point is the temperature at which the oil begins to smoke.  It begins to burn at this point and it can be a fire hazard.  The "flash point" is the temperature at which the oil ignites.

Your welcome
