Name two elements that have properties similar to those of beryllium and have average atomic masses higher than 130

sertanlavr [38]

In the periodic table, elements of the same group are characterized by having the same similar properties.
So, first we will check the elements that lie within the same group as <span>beryllium and then we will attempt to choose the elements with atomic mass higher than 130.

So, elements in the same group as </span>beryllium are: magnesium, calcium, strontium, barium and radium.
Among these elements, we will find that:
radium has atomic mass of 226 amu
barium has atomic mass of 137.327 amu

Based on this, the two elements would be barium and radium.

Which of the following is the most likely sign that a chemical change has happened?

Dovator [93]

Answer:

<em>The correct option is B) two liquids are mixed at room temperature and a gas forms.</em>

Explanation:

A chemical change can be described as a change which results in the formation of a new substance by the reactants. In the option B, two liquids react to form a new product which is a gas. Hence, it is an example of chemical change.

Other options,like option D, is not a chemical change as by crushing a solid no new product is formed. Option C is also not correct because as when salt dissolves in water, no new product is made.
