We can observe physical properties of elements and compounds without changing the substance.
Examples of physical properties: Density, color, boiling point, state of matter, appearance: dull or shiny, etc.
But we can also observe and measure chemical properties by reacting a substance with something else. For example, like mixing baking soda and vinegar together. The vinegar reacts with the baking soda and produces carbon dioxide: a new substance.
Some examples of chemical properties: Flammability, amount of heat that is released during combustion, toxicity (how much damage it causes to other organisms), radioactivity, and ability to oxidize (when you have metal that becomes rusty looking).

The advantage of using an orbital notation is that it shows the electron distribution in shells.
<span>Dot structures only show the valence electrons of an atom which are the electrons found at the outermost shell. The orbital notation gives a more detailed depiction of the electrons in each shell. This is most advantageous for atoms that have special cases. </span>
<span>Some examples of atoms that have special electronic configurations are copper and chromium. For example, copper is more stable when the 3d subshell is completely filled. This leaves the 4s subshell with only 1 electron. Chromium is also more stable when its s and d subshells are only half full. The orbital notation depicts these special cases, whereas the dot structure does not.</span>
First of all write a balanced equation.
4Na + O2 -> 2Na2O
You are starting with a mass of sodium. You need to use sodium’s molar mass. Take this quantity times mole to mole ratio between sodium and sodium oxide to get moles of sodium oxide produced.
.141 moles of sodium oxide produced
Answer: 2m/s^2
Explanation:
Velocity of skateboard = 20.0 m/s.
Time taken = Ten seconds (10 s)
Acceleration = ?
Recall that acceleration is the change in velocity of a body per unit time.
i.e Acceleration = (velocity / Time)
Acceleration = 20.0m/s ➗ 10 s
Acceleration = 2m/s^2
Thus, Jeffrey acceleration was 2m/s^2
