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.

Which of these compounds are oxoacids (also known as oxyacids)?
devlian [24]

At the very least, an oxoacid must 1) be an acid and 2) contain oxygen.

Ba(OH)2 (barium hydroxide) is a strong base. HCN, HF, and hydrochloric acid (HCl) don't contain oxygen.

Nitrous acid (HNO2) is an acid, and it contains oxygen. And the acidic hydrogen is bonded to an oxygen. Thus, nitrous acid qualifies as an oxoacid.

I don't know if H2PO4 is a typo; if not, then it would properly be written as H2PO4⁻ since it's the first deprotonation product of phosphoric acid, H3PO4. In any case, H2PO4⁻ is still acidic, albeit weakly, and its acidic hydrogens are bonded to the oxygen atoms. Thus, "H2PO4" would qualify as an oxoacid (for that matter, H3PO4 would also be an oxoacid).

Chloric acid (HClO3) is an acid, and it contains oxygen; its acidic hydrogen is bonded to an oxygen atom. Thus, chloric acid qualifies as an oxoacid.

In a undisturbed layer, how do we know which layer was deposited first ?
OLEGan [10]

Answer:

It's the bottom layer.  

Explanation:

Scientists use the Law of Superposition to determine the relative age of a layer of sedimentary rock:

The oldest rock layer is at the bottom of an undisturbed bed.

Thus, Layer A in the figure below was deposited first.

Calculate the percentage by mass of oxygen in Al2(SO4)3 (Al=27, S=32,O= 16) PLEASE SHOW FULL WORKING​
White raven [17]

Answer:

There is 61.538% oxygen in Al2(SO4)3.

Explanation:

Wt Of oxygen in the compound = 12*16 = 192 amu.

Total Wt. Of the compound = 2*12+3*32+12*16 = 312 amu.

Thus, percent of oxygen = Wt of oxygen/total Wt. Of compound *100

= 192/312 * 100=61.538 %
