differing electronegativity

the electronegativity is a chemical property that describes the tendency of an atom to attract a shared pair of electrons towards itself.

in ionic bond one of the 2 atoms attracts the electrons from another and doesn’t share it, so the electronegativity must be different to make the attract tendency different.

so,

first, when we speak about bond we should deal with electronegativity, not the number of the neutrons or the melting points

Second, if the two electronegativities are similar, then the electrons will be shared as in covalent bonds. But if they are different, one will lose the electrons to another one.

What do chemical and physical change have in common?
gtnhenbr [62]

Explanation:

The similarities between chemical and physical changes include change in state of matter and both process involve change in energy.

Chemical changes of a substance results in the formation of entirely new substances. These changes are not reversible.

Physical changes results in the change of the state of the substance which can be reversed.

However, both chemical and physical changes results in change of state of matter and both process results in change in energy.

Thus, we can conclude that the similarities between chemical and physical changes include change in state of matter and both process involve change in energy.

C. Magma from venus mantle erupted as lava.

Explanation:

A volcano is a land form which results from the eruption of molten rocks (lava) on the surface. Volcanic rocks are a special type of igneous rock that forms when molten rock cools and solidifies on the surface.

For a planet like Venus which is presently not active and little to no movement occurs within the plates, the volcanisim must have occurred when the planet was relatively young and it must have been millions of years ago.

It is widely believed that Venus was geologically active in times past. Mantle generated lava must have solidified on the surface in times past to have formed the volcano.

Evaluating other options:

Impact of space objects on Venus would lead to the formation of a crater which is a depression on the surface. The rock would be mostly metamorphic.

If water was ever present in Venus, they would have produced sedimentary rocks instead. The erosive power of water is not high enough to cut through the crust. Also, water would not aid the formation of volcanoes.

Heat is not enough to from volcanoes. Other factors are also in play.
