Answer:  1: 1

Explanation:

An ionic bond is formed when an element completely transfers its valence electron to another element. This bond is formed between a metal and a non-metal.

For formation of a neutral ionic compound, the charges on cation and anion must be balanced. The cation is formed by loss of electrons by metals and anions are formed by gain of electrons by non metals.  

Here potassium forms a cation K^+ ion by loss of one electron and bromine forms an anion Br^- by gain of one electron.Thus one K^+ combine with one Br^- to form neutral KBr.

When calcium oxide, CaO(s) dissolves in water, the water becomes hot. Write a chemical equation for this process and indicate wh
denis23 [38]

Answer:

The interaction reaction of calcium oxide and water leads to the formation of calcium hydroxide, this reaction is exothermic, which indicates that energy is released.

CaO(s) + H2O ⇒ Ca(OH)2

Explanation:

Calcium oxide reacts violently with water, causing it to reach 90 C. It then forms calcium hydroxide, also called slaked lime. It is heated because it releases energy in the form of heat, because the new substance formed (slaked lime) has less internal energy than the original and this is released in the form of heat. As a general rule, acid and base solutions are exothermic.
