A student reads that sodium atoms (Na) react with chlorine (Cl2) molecules to form the compound sodium chloride (NaCl). Which model should the student make to satisfy the Law of Conservation of Matter for the formation of sodium chloride, in simplest form?

"among the transition metal elements, manganese and zinc have a slight lowering of electronegativities. the reason behind this is that the nuclear charges of these elements are slightly weaker than the other transition metal elements due to the way their valence electrons are filled up. both manganese and zinc have their valence electrons filled up to the 4th shell with 1 pair of electrons (4s2) completely occupying it. although the electrons in the 3rd shell (3d) are yet to be paired since the outer most shell is filled up, the ability of the nucleus to attract electrons is lessened. hence,   the electronegativity (or the ability to attract electrons) is lessened."

1. a)c-14 has two more protons

2. d)they have different numbers of protons, neutrons, and valence electrons; they are all gases at room temperature.

3. c) iron and nickel.

i wish i could but this one is weird give me abc and i can solve it.

here are some of the ways in which chemical and nuclear reactions differ.
