Answer:

Cation = Mn³⁺

Anion = CO₃²⁻

Explanation:

An ionic compound is formed by a combination of positive and negative ions that are held together by ionic bonds.

The positively charged ions have a tendency to lose electrons and are called cations. In contrast the negatively charged ions called anions show a tendency to accept or attract electrons. In general, metals show a propensity to lose electrons thereby forming cations.

The given compound is: Mn₂(CO₃)₃ i.e. manganese carbonate

Here, manganese Mn is a transition metal and therefore will be the cation.

The anion is the polyatomic species, carbonate which carries a charge of -2.

Since the molecule is neutral the charges need to be balanced. If the charge on Mn is say'x' then:

2x +(3)(-2) = 0

i.e. x = +3

Hence:

Cation = Mn³⁺

Anion = CO₃²⁻

How do core electrons relate to the ionization energy of the atom?
Archy [21]

Answer:

For any given element, ionization energy increases as subsequent electrons are removed. For example, the energy required to remove an electron from neutral chlorine is 1251 kJ/mol. ... An even sharper increase in ionization energy is witnessed when inner-shell, or core, electrons are removed.

Hope it helps :)

The image formed by a lens may be real or virtual. The image formed by a lens is always virtual.
amid [387]
There are types of lens; concave and convex lens.
The concave lens is a lens which has an inward curve in the middle, that is, the edges of the curve are thicker than the center of the lens, because of this, any light that enter the lens will spread out [diverge]. An image will look smaller and upright when viewed by a concave lens. Image formed by concave lens are usually VIRTUAL. 
A concave lens will produce a real image ONLY if the object is located beyond the focal point of the lens.
A convex lens is a converging lens, this is because, the center of the lens is thicker than its edges. Any ray of light that passes through the lens will converge at the middle of the lens at point called principal focus.  A convex lens produce a VIRTUAL image when the object is placed infront of the focal point. The virtual image formed is always magnified and upright.<span />

To help determine what type of rock it is

Explanation:

Geologists can use information such as color, hardness, grain size, texture and other aspects of the rock to figure out the classification of a rock. for example, a light blue rock with no visible grain that is translucent and has a hardness of 9 is most likely going to be a saphire. hope this helps!!!!

The liquid dispensed from a burette is called ___________.
11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

The liquid that is been dispensed during titration as regards this question is Titrant.

  • Titration can be regarded as  common laboratory method that is been carried out during quantitative chemical analysis.
  • This analysis helps to know the concentration of an identified analyte.
  • Burette can be regarded as laboratory apparatus.

It is used in the in measurements of variable amounts of liquid ,this apparatus helps in dispensation   of liquid, especially when performing titration.

  • The specifications is been done base on their volume, or resolution.
  • The liquid that comes out of this apparatus is regarded as Titrant, and this is gotten during titration process, which is usually carried out during volumetric analysis.

Therefore, burrete is used in volumetric analysis.
