26. Classify each of the following as a chemical reaction, a nuclear reaction, or neither:
a. Thorium emits a beta particle.
b. Two atoms share electrons to form a bond.
c. A sample of pure sulfur emits heat energy as it

d. a piece of iron rusts.

The atomic radius of sodium is 186 pm and of chlorine is 100 pm. the ionic radius for na+ is 102 pm and for cl– is 181 pm. in going from na to cl in period 3, why does the atomic radius decrease while the ionic radius increases? a. the inner electrons in the sodium cation shield its valence electrons more effectively than the inner electrons in the chloride anion do. b. the inner electrons shield the valence electrons more effectively in the chlorine atom than in the chloride anion. c. the outermost electrons in chloride experience a smaller effective nuclear charge than those in the sodium cation do. d. the outermost electrons in chloride experience a larger effective nuclear charge than those in the sodium cation do. e. monatomic ions are bigger than the atoms from which they are formed.

Why doesn't heat added to water make the tempature rise above 100c

The formation of a solid, also known as a is an indication of a chemical change. precipitate particulate particle powder
