Most nonmetals are found at the top right of the periodic table. The exception is hydrogen, which is usually placed at the top left with the alkali metals.

Ionic bonding is a type of chemical bond that occurs when the atom of a metal definitively gives up one or more electrons to the atom of a nonmetal or hydrogen.

A covalent bond is one in which the atoms of chemical elements share their electrons in order to be stable. Covalent bonding is a type of chemical bond that occurs between hydrogen atoms and nonmetals.

With this in mind...

Lithium (Li) and Oxygen (O) - Li is a metal and Oxygen a nonmetal, so ionic bond.

Chlorine (Cl) and Fluorine (F) - Cl is a nonmetal and Fluorine is a nonmetal, so covalent bond.

Calcium (Ca) and Sulfur (S) - Calcium is a metal and Sulfur is a nonmetal, so ionic bond.

Answer: Lithium (Li) and Oxygen (O) - ionic bond.

Chlorine (Cl) and Fluorine (F) - covalent bond.

Calcium (Ca) and Sulfur (S) - ionic bond.

[OH-] for a solution is
solong [7]

Answer:

B = basic

Explanation:

Given data:

[OH⁻] = 5.35×10⁻⁴M

pH = ?

Solution:

pOH = -log[OH⁻]

pOH = - [5.35×10⁻⁴]

pOH = 3.272

it is known that,

pH + pOH = 14

pH = 14- pOH

pH = 14 - 3.272

pH = 10.728

The acidic pH is range from zero to less than 7 while 7 pH is neutral and above 7 the pH is basic. So, the given solution is basic.

Based on the diagram below, how much of the excess reactant is left over? *
Alexxandr [17]

Answer:

3 of lunchmeat and 2 slices of cheese

Explanation:

From the question given,

Each sandwich contains:

2 bread + 3 lunch meat + 1 cheese.

Now, the limiting reactant is the slice of bread.

We can determine the leftover as follow:

1. For the lunchmeat.

From the simple equation above,

2 bread requires 3 lunchmeat.

Therefore, 6 bread will require = (6 x 3)/2 = 9 lunchmeat.

Lunchmeat given = 12

Lunchmeat required = 9

Leftover lunchmeat = 12 – 9 = 3

Therefore, 3 lunchmeat is leftover.

2. For cheese.

From the simple equation above,

2 bread requires 1 cheese.

Therefore, 6 bread will require = 6/2 = 3 cheese.

Cheese given = 5

Cheese required = 3

Leftover cheese = 5 – 3 = 2

Therefore, 2 cheese is leftover.

From the simple illustrations above,

3 lunchmeat and 2 cheese are leftover.
