Substance at the beginning of a reaction- reactant

Substance at the end of a reaction- product

Number placed before a compound in a chemical equation- stoichiometric coefficient

Explanation:

In a reaction equation, the species written on the left hand side of the equation are called the reactants.

The reactants combine to form the species on the right hand side of the reaction equation called products.

The stoichiometric coefficient is a number written before the formula of a compound in the reaction equation.

- calcium has greater affinity to bond with electron receptors than hydrogen does and hence, it has the ability to replace hydrogen in most of its compounds.

- lithium has 2 valence electrons in the product because it can make only 1 bond with hydrogen. beryllium has 4 valence electrons in the product because it can only make 2 bonds. it has fewer electrons than neon and can react with electron donors. each hydrogen has 2 valence electrons, the same as helium.

- the covalent bond formed between carbon and hydrogen is polar because carbon is more electronegative than hydrogen and it attracts the bonded electron pair closer to itself, thus giving hydrogen a partial positive charge.

- a hydrogen bond is a relatively weak bond that hydrogen atoms make with the electronegative atoms nitrogen, oxygen or fluorine.

so the best choice is a.) 2 calcium (ca) atoms
