Nothing in particular determines the name of an element, it could range from who discovered it to where it was discovered!
Answer:
A
Explanation:
The answer to this question is A. Both ripening and spoiling are chemical reactions.
Spoiling is a chemical reaction because spoiled food has bad smell and taste and it changes colour too.
Ripening of fruits is a chemical change. For example the colour could change as well as the texture.
Atoms of the same element with different mass numbers are called isotopes
Answer:
B. calcium has electrons in more energy levels than magnesium
Explanation:
atoms are made of three types of subatomic particles - electrons, protons and neutrons.
Neutrons and protons reside in the nucleus of the atom and electrons reside in energy shells
electronic configuration for both Ca and Mg are as follows
Mg - 2,8,2
Ca - 2,8,8,2
outermost energy shell of Mg with electrons is the third energy level
whereas outermost energy shell of Ca with electrons is the fourth energy shell
therefore Ca has a larger atomic radius than Mg as it has one more energy shell than Mg in which electrons reside
