18. Translate the following Russian sentences into the English language
Химический элемент – это вид атомов с определённым положительным зарядом ядра.
Атом – это наименьшая частица химического элемента, обладающая всеми его свойствами.
Соединение атомов происходит в соответствии с их валентностью.
Процессы, протекающие в химическом веществе, или в смесях различных веществ, представляют собой химические реакции.
Все химические элементы по их свойствам делят на металлы и неметаллы.
Реакции подразделяются на экзотермические, которые идут с выделением тепла, и эндотермические, в ходе которых тепло поглощается из окружающей среды.
При взаимодействии кислорода с металлом образуется оксид металла.
Химическая реакция горения протекает при взаимодействии горючего газа с кислородом.
Реакция замещения – это реакция, в ходе которой происходит замена одного атома или группы атомов в исходной молекуле на другой атом или группу атомов.
Периодическая система химических элементов устанавливает зависимость различных свойств элементов от заряда атомного ядра.

20. Look at the diagram “Chemical Elements in the Earth’s Crust” and read the description
The pie chart shows the distribution of chemical elements in the Earth’s crust. The content of the chemical elements is expressed in weight percent.
Oxygen takes the largest part of the Earth’s crust, 49.4% of the total content. The second place is taken by silicon, 25.8%. The content of aluminum is 7.5%. Iron, calcium, sodium, and potassium occupy just 4.7, 3.4, 2.6, 2.4%, respectively, while the content of magnesium, hydrogen and titanium together is less than 2%. 0.8% of the content is shared between all other chemical elements.
Almost 99% of the Earth’s crust minerals are made up of ten elements. Most of these elements are found combined with other elements as compounds.
