The reaction involved in present case is:
Net Reaction: Ca + 1/2 O2 → CaO. ..................(1)
In terms of oxidation and reduction, the reaction can be shown at
Oxidation: Ca → Ca2+ + 2e- .................(2)
Reduction: 1/2O2 + 2e- → O2-...................(3)
From, reaction 1 it can be seen that 1 mol of Ca reacts with 1/2 mol of O2 to form 1 mol of CaO.
From, reaction 2 it can be seen that 1 mol of Ca, generates 2 mol of e-.
Thus, when 1/2 mol of Ca is used in reaction, it will lose 1 mol of electrons.
Recycling Isn’t Always Cost Effective.
High Up Front Cost
Needs More Global Buy-In.
Recycled Products Are Often of Lesser Quality.
Recycling Sites Are Commonly Unsafe.
I believe the answer is a because 2 times 12 is 24. Hope this helped
Answer:
Some of the physical changes used by the industrial chemist in order to identify it is by scratching it with other metals in order to find the hardness of it. Trying to deform it in order to find the malleability, and to heat it and measure the temperature in order to find the melting point.
Some of the chemical changes used by the industrial chemist in order to identify it is by inserting it in water to observe that whether it reacts with it or not, if the reaction is violent, then the metal belongs to either group I or group II. The other method is to insert it in acids of distinct strength and to observe its reaction. The metals belonging to the second group react briskly with acids. The other metals react gradually with acids and others are almost inert.

Explanation:
What occurred then is as a result of nuclear fission. This occurs as the Uranium-235 split into two smaller nuclei while releasing high energy neutrons. These neutrons bombard existing U-235 in the atmosphere and this reaction continue in a spontaneous manner until a chain reaction is formed of U-235, whose fall out fills the environment. This process was what led to people been exposed to high intensity radiation in the days and months after the atomic bomb was dropped.
