Answer:
The CO2 Lewis structure has two double bonds going from carbon to the oxygen atoms. According to the octet rule, each oxygen atom needs to bond twice and the carbon atom needs to bond four times.
Answer:
Kyanite (Al2SiO5) - silicate
Ilmenite (FeTiO3) - Oxides
Rhodochrosite (MnCO3) - carbonate
Celestite (SrSO4) - sulphate
Chalcocite (Cu2S) - sulphide
Explanation:
Minerals are classified according to their chemical composition. For example those that hve the CO32- ion are called carbonates and those with the SO42- ion are called sulphates while the ones with S2- ion are called sulphides
Answer:
Here's what I get
Explanation:
1. Nickel sulfate
base + acid ⟶ salt + water
NiSO₄ is a salt of the base Ni(OH)₂ and the acid sulfuric acid.
Hydroxides of transition metals are insoluble; most sulfates are soluble.

2. Carbonate + acid
Most carbonates are insoluble.
They react with acids to form carbonic acid (H₂CO₃), which decomposes into water and carbon dioxide.
