Answer:

Option C. Decomposition

Explanation:

To know which option is correct, it is important we know what is a single displacement reaction, double displacement reaction and decomposition reaction.

A Single displacement reaction can be defined as a reaction in which a single element is replaced by another element in a compound.

A double displacement reaction is a reaction involving the exchange of ions of two parts of ionic compounds to form two different compounds.

A decomposition reaction is a reaction in which a compound splits into two or more simpler compound or element.

Bearing the above definitions in mind and considering the question given above, we can conclude that the reaction given in the question above is a decomposition reaction since the compound (NH₄OH) splits into two different compound (NH₃ and H₂O)

Which of the following atoms typically

Vikentia [17]

Answer:

Good Question

see Negative ions are those which gain electrons to attain stability

Now, We know All metals tend to donate electrons which inturn results in positive charge

Now Have a closer look at options

a) F

It is fluorine

it's configuration is 2,7

that means it requires one electron to complete it's octet from 7 to 8

therefore, it will gain one electron which results in

${f }^{ - }$

b)Li

lithium is metal having one electron in outermost shell So it will rather loose electron to attain stability
