Answer:
B. Ionic Compound
Explanation:
An ionic compound is that compound which contains a positively charged ion called CATION and a negatively charged ion called ANION. The cation loses or transfers electrons to the anion, hence, making the former (cation) positive and the latter (anion) negative.
A polyatomic ion is an ion that contains more than one type of atom e.g OH-, NO3²-, CO3²- etc. A polyatomic ion usually has an overall charge formed from the charges of the individual atoms that makes it up. For example, in OH-, the overall charge is -1.
Since a polyatomic ion can have an overall positive or negative charge, it must enter a reaction with another ion that complements it i.e. a negative polyatomic ion will react with a positive ion to neutralize its charge. Hence, this forms an IONIC COMPOUND. This is why most compounds with polyatomic ions are IONIC COMPOUNDS.
For example, CaCO3 is an ionic compound formed when Ca²+ (cation) reacts with the polyatomic anion: CO3²-
Answer:
Round to the number of significant figures in the original question. However, if you're going to proceed with further calculations using this mass, it's best not to round, as rounding will cause your answer to be less precise.
Explanation:
Answer:
1.6 grams
Explanation:
We need to prepare 100 mL (0.100 L) of a 0.10 M CuSO₄ solution. The required moles of CuSO₄ are:
0.100 L × 0.10 mol/L = 0.010 mol
The molar mass of CuSO₄ is 159.61 g/mol. The mass corresponding to 0.010 moles is:
0.010 mol × (159.61 g/mol) = 1.6 g
We should use 1.6 grams of CuSO₄.
