Explain how a metal and a non-metal form an ION when they chemically react together.

Chemistry

Answer:

When metals react with non-metals, electrons are transferred from the metal atoms to the non-metal atoms, forming ions. The resulting compound is called an ionic compound. In all of these reactions, the metal atoms give electrons to the non-metal atoms.

From the given elements Na, P , Ca ,Br which one has highest first ionization energy , ,smallest atomic size , most metallic cha
madam [21]

Answer:

highest first ionization energy - Br

smallest atomic size - Br

most metallic character - Na

Explanation:

Ionization energy of Br is higher than P because higher zeff value

Sodium is more metallic than calcium because it is able to loose electron more readily as compared to calcium because of higher electro positivity.

Atomic radius of Br is the smallest as its atomic radius is 114, P (115), Ca (197), Na (186)

What are the prompt neutrons that occur during nuclear fission?
zysi [14]

Answer:

Prompt Neutrons

Explanation:

Principle. Using uranium-235 as an example, this nucleus absorbs thermal neutrons, and the immediate mass products of a fission event are two large fission fragments, which are remnants of the formed uranium-236 nucleus. These fragments emit two or three free neutrons (2.5 on average), called prompt neutrons.

Describe the difference beetween an extensive and intesive property
olasank [31]

Extensive properties, such as mass and volume, depend on the amount of matter being measured. Intensive properties, such as density and color, do not depend on the amount of the substance present. Physical properties can be measured without changing a substance's chemical identity.
