There are 2 main properties that Ionic compounds share:

1) High melting and boiling points. - Ionic bonds are extremely strong. So therefore, lots heat energy is needed to break them down. So ionic compounds have high melting and boiling points. 

2) Conductive when liquid- Ions are charged particles, but ionic compounds can only conduct electricity if their ions are free to move. They are not free to move in a solid state, however they are free to move when the compound has been melted or dissolved in a liquid.

Hope this helps! :)

The force that binds atoms together to form molecules is
DIA [1.3K]

Answer:

The electromagnetic force

Explanation:

There are four fundamental forces in nature:

- Gravitational force: it is the force that acts between any particles having mass. It is relevant only on very large scales (planets, stars), since it is the weakest of the 4 forces, so very large masses are needed in order to produce relevant effects.

- Electromagnetic force: it is the force that acts between particles with electric charge. It can be attractive or repulsive. It is the main force that acts between atoms and molecules.

- Strong nuclear force: it is the force that keeps the protons and the neutrons together inside the nucleus. It acts only on very short scales (only within the nucleus of the atom)

- Weak nuclear force: it is the force responsible for the radioactive decays of certain nuclei. It also acts on very short scales.

Therefore, the force that is responsible for binding atoms together to form molecules is the electromagnetic force.

In a research facility, a person lies on a horizontal platform which floats on a film of air. When the person's heart beats, it
anastassius [24]

Answer: 3.48g

Explanation:

here, we will be using conservation of momentum to solve the problem. i.e the total momentum remains unchanged, unless an external force acts on the system. We'll in thus question, there is no external force acting in the system.

Remember, momentum = mass * velocity, then

mass of blood * velocity of blood = combined mass of subject and pallet * velocity of subject and pallet

Velocity of blood = 56.5cm = 0.565m

mass of blood * 0.565 = 54kg * (0.000063/0.160)

mass of blood * 0.565 = 54 * 0.00039375

mass of blood * 0.565 = 0.001969

mass of blood = 0.00348kg

Thus, the mass of blood that leaves the heart is 3.48g

A golf club rotates 215 degrees and has a length (radius) equal to 29 inches. The time it took to swing the club was 0.8 seconds
vichka [17]

Answer:

The average linear velocity (inches/second) of the golf club is 136.01 inches/second

Explanation:

Given;

length of the club, L = 29 inches

rotation angle, θ = 215⁰

time of motion, t = 0.8 s

The angular speed of the club is calculated as follows;

\omega = (\frac{\theta}{360} \times 2\pi, \ rad) \times \frac{1}{t} \\\\\omega =  (\frac{215}{360} \times 2\pi, \ rad) \times \frac{1}{0.8 \ s} \\\\\omega = 4.69 \ rad/s

The average linear velocity (inches/second) of the golf club is calculated as;

v = ωr

v = 4.69 rad/s  x  29 inches

v = 136.01 inches/second

Therefore, the average linear velocity (inches/second) of the golf club is 136.01 inches/second

A hiker walks 11 km due north from camp and then turns and walks 11 km due east. What is the magnitude of the displacement (on a
sattari [20]

Answer:

16 km

Explanation:

Drawing a right triangle to model the problem helps. I started by drawing the lines of the triangle to model the hiker's journey- a vertical straight line for 11 km north and then a horizontal line connected to the top of it for 11 km east; I then drew the hypothenuse to connect the two lines.

The hypothenuse is what we have to solve for, so we will use the Pythagorean Theorem, a^2 + b^2 = c^2. Since both distances are 11 km both a and b in the equation are 11.

11^2 + 11^2 = c^2

121 + 121 = c^2

242 = c^2

c = 15.56

Rounding the answer makes it 16 km for the hiker's magnitude of displacement.
