Chemistry
1 answer:
ryzh [129]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Explanation:

Its simple

This is the number of atoms, ions, or molecules that a central atom or ion holds as its nearest neighbours in a complex or coordination compound or in a crystal.

for example: Sodium chloride (NaCl) or table salt is an ionic compound. It means that each cation will have exactly one anion associated with it, which means the cation Na+ and the anion Cl− have the same number of coordinates.

It may be really confusing at first

I recommend you go online and watch tutorial  videos on the topic

Which statement about the balanced equations for nuclear and chemical changes is correct? (1 point)
iris [78.8K]

The true statement about the balanced equations for nuclear and chemical changes is; both are balanced according to the total mass before and after the change.

A basic law in science is called the law of conservation of mass. Its general statement is that mass can neither be created nor destroyed.

Both in chemical and nuclear changes, mass is involved and in both cases, the law of conservation of mass strictly applies.

This means that for both chemical and nuclear changes; total mass before reaction must be equal to total mass after reaction.

Hence, both reactions are balanced according to the total mass before and after the change.

The backbone of any decent hot chocolate is milk. Beyond water, milk is perhaps the most basic and familiar substance to humans.
