<span>Molecular compounds, which are represented by molecules, are usually made of non-metals only (or of metalloids and non-metals). Ionic compounds, which are represented by formula units, are made of metals and non-metals.
More detail if you're interested: Molecules and formula units are the representative particles for molecular and ionic compounds, respectively. By that I mean, one unit of a molecular compound is a molecule...a bundle of atoms covalently bonded that exists separately from all the other molecules. One unit of an ionic compound is a formula unit. A formula unit is a representation of the compound's formula. For example, the formula unit of NaCl is one Na^+1 ion and one Cl^-1 ion. The formula unit of AlCl3 is one Al^+3 ion and three Cl^-1 ions. Ionic compounds don't have separate bundles of atoms like molecular compounds do, so the formula unit is just the smallest number of ions that it takes to represent the formula. </span>
Answer:
They can be dated using radioactive carbon. But for rocks older than 50 thousand years they look for layers of igneous rock or volcanic ash above and Bellow the layer of rock/fossil.
Answer:
Explanation:
2NO3, Ca2+
Spectator ions exists in both sides of the equation. These ions are present in both sides thus cancel out (they do not contribute to reaction...i.e. they only watch or spectate ;) )
Answer: C. the warmer object transfers heat energy to the cooler side
