Hey there.
By adding up all the "exponents," you'll get a number of 19. By looking at a periodic table, the element of such an atomic number is potassium or K.
Answer:
1
Explanation:
There is only one calcium atom because the subscript 3 applies only to the oxygen. Outside of the parentheses, the subscript 2 only applies to the chlorate ion. Therefore, there is only one calcium atom because there are no coefficients and subscripts. (Also drawing it out will help)
The melting point of ice is 0 degrees Celcius, which means it exists as a liquid for any temperatures above 0 degrees. The melting point of salt is approximately 800 degrees Celcius, which is way greater than the melting point of ice. This means that for temperatures below 800 degrees, salt exists as a solid.
The temperature of the area where they were placed we can assume was somewhere between 0 and 800 degrees, greater than the melting point of ice but less than the melting point of salt. This why the ice melted but the salt did not.
I hope this helps!
The answer would be more heat
