Chemistry Questions

In chemistry, a product is a substance that is formed as the result of a chemical reaction. In a reaction, starting materials called reactants and the ending materials are called products.

A substance that cannot be decomposed (broken down) into simpler substances by ordinary chemical means.

Examples: gold, iron, carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen.

Material composed of only one kind of matter throughout (same atoms or same molecules).

In the bond formation of barium with oxygen, the valency electrons from the barium transferred to the oxygen and forms an ionic bond.

In chemistry, the term transition metal has three possible meanings: The IUPAC definition defines a transition metal as "an element whose atom has a partially filled d sub-shell, or which can give rise to cations with an incomplete d sub-shell".

Any of the set of metallic elements occupying a central block (Groups IVB–VIII, IB, and IIB, or 4–12) in the periodic table, e.g. iron, manganese, chromium, and copper. Chemically they show variable valency and a strong tendency to form coordination compounds, and many of their compounds are coloured.

Here in the given options, only iron (Fe) is a transition metal since Strontium is an alkaline earth, arsenic is a metalloid, hydrogen is (normally) a diatomic gas.

chemical energy is contained in the chemical bonds between the reactants in the chemical compounds.
