Calcium carbonate, a common material found in chalk and antacids, is shown decomposing in the balanced chemical equation below. Count the number of atoms on the reactant and product side of the equation. How many more atoms are in the products than the reactants?

Pauling and lewis questioned the extreme definitions of bonds. they wondered if bonds might be described somewhere in between the two extremes (covalent and ionic). on the basis of experimental data,pauling confirmed that bonds could be ionic, covalent, and for those, in between, exhibit a degree of ionic character. he theorized that the major factor was how strongly the atoms in the bond attracted the electrons. pauling called this factor - the tendency of an atom to attract electrons in a bond.

The diagram below shows the different phase transitions that occur in matter. which arrow represents the transition in which dew is formed?
