Answer:
True. An English scientist by the name of John Newlands tried to classify the elements in a unique manner. He first started by arranging all the elements in a ascending order according to their atomic weights.
Why can't elements be separated into smaller parts using chemical means? Too much energy is required, since you'd have to break them down into protons, neutrons, and electrons. You can get this much energy together with nuclear reactions, but not by chemical means.
Answer:
A) Cations
Explanation:
a) Cations have a positive charge and are larger than their neutral counterparts!
b) Anions have a negative charge and are smaller than their neutral counterparts
c) Metals can have either a positive or negative charge making it either a cation or an anion
d) Carbon is an element and it can have a charge anywhere from +4 to -4
A good way to remember that cations are positive is to think that CATions are always PAWSitive! ^-^
