Answer:
The options are unclear, however, the correct option is:
Aqueous solutions of ionic compounds cause to dissociate, hence, ions are free to conduct electricity
Explanation:
Ionic compounds are compounds formed from ions (charged atoms). For example, NaCl is an ionic compound from the following ions; Na+ (cation) and Cl- (anion). One characteristics of ionic compounds is their ability to dissociate into the ions that form them when in an aqueous solution i.e. NaCl will dissociate into Na+ and Cl- when in an aqueous solution.
These disssociated ions are free to conduct electricity, hence, making ionic compounds good conductors of electricity.
gold is usually found in pure form because it is not reacting with other chemicals naturally.
Answer:
2OH^-(aq) + Cu^2+(aq) -----> Cu(OH)2(s)
Explanation:
The net ionic equation usually shows the main ionic reaction that goes in the system. The other ions that do not participate in this net ionic equation are called spectator ions. Spectator ions do not participate in the main reaction occurring in the system.
The net ionic equation quite often result in the formation of a solid precipitate in the system such as Cu(OH)2.
The net ionic equation for this reaction is;
2OH^-(aq) + Cu^2+(aq) -----> Cu(OH)2(s)
Answer:
Group 18, also known as the Noble Gasses
Explanation:
Atoms strive for full stability by gaining or losing electrons to get 8 valence electrons in their valence shell, but Group 18 already has 8 electrons in their valence shell, and are therefore already stable in their ground state.
