Answer:

ionic

Explanation:

Ionic bonds exist between Ca and F ions in CaF₂. Ionic bonds are interatomic bonds formed by the transfer of electrons from one atom to the other.

The donor atom here is Ca and it has two valence electrons. Fluorine is the receiving atom with 7 electrons in its outermost shell.

Ca would give one each of its two outermost electrons to the fluorine atoms to complete their octet. Ca ion would now resemble Argon and the flourine atoms would look more like Neon atoms.

This is an ionic bond

The large piece of jewelry that has a mass of 132.6 g and when is submerged in a graduated cylinder that initially contains 48.6 ml water and the volume increases to 61.2 ml once the piece of jewelry is submerged, has a density of: 10.523 g/ml

To solve this problem the formulas and the procedures that we have to use are:

v = v(f)-v(i)
d = m/v

Where:

d= density
m= mass
v= volume
v(f) = final volume
v(i) = initial volume

Information about the problem:

m = 132.6 g
v(i) = 48.6 ml
v(f) = 61.2 ml
v = ?
d =?

Applying the volume formula we get:

v = v(f)-v(i)

v = 61.2 ml - 48.6 ml

v = 12.6 ml

Applying the density formula we get:

d = m/v

d = 132.6 g/12.6 ml

d = 10.523 g/ml

<h3>What is density?</h3>

It is a physical quantity that expresses the ratio of the body mass to the volume it occupies.

Perform the calculation and record the answer with the correct number of significant figures.

kotykmax [81]

The question is incomplete, here is the complete question:

A. (6.5-6.10)/3.19

B. (34.123 + 9.60) / (98.7654 - 9.249)

Answer:

For A: The answer becomes 0.1

For B: The answer becomes 0.4884

Explanation:

Significant figures are defined as the figures present in a number that expresses the magnitude of a quantity to a specific degree of accuracy.

Rules for the identification of significant figures:

Digits from 1 to 9 are always significant and have infinite number of significant figures.
All non-zero numbers are always significant. For example: 664, 6.64 and 66.4 all have three significant figures.
All zeros between the integers are always significant. For example: 5018, 5.018 and 50.18 all have four significant figures.
All zeros preceding the first integers are never significant. For example: 0.00058 has two significant figures.
All zeros after the decimal point are always significant. For example: 2.500, 25.00 and 250.0 all have four significant figures.
All zeroes used solely for spacing the decimal point are not significant. For example: 10000 has one significant figure.

Rule applied for addition and subtraction:

The least precise number present after the decimal point determines the number of significant figures in the answer.

Rule applied for multiplication and division:

In case of multiplication and division, the number of significant digits is taken from the value which has least precise significant digits

For A: (6.5-6.10)/3.19

This a a problem of subtraction and division.

First, the subtraction is carried out.

$\Rightarow \frac{6.5-6.10}{3.19}=\frac{0.4}{3.19}$

Here, the least precise number after decimal was 1.

$\Rightarrow \frac{0.4}{3.19}=0.125$

Here, the least precise number of significant digit is 1. So, the answer becomes 0.1

For B: (34.123 + 9.60) / (98.7654 - 9.249)

This a a problem of subtraction, addition and division.

First, the subtraction and addition is carried out.

$\Rightarow \frac{34.123+9.60}{98.7654-9.249}=\frac{43.723}{89.5164}=\frac{43.72}{89.516}$

Here, the least precise number after decimal in addition are 2 and in subtraction are 3

$\Rightarrow \frac{43.72}{89.516}=0.48840$

Here, the least precise number of significant digit are 4. So, the answer becomes 0.4884

Determine whether the reaction will be spontaneous at high temperatures only, at low temperatures only, at all temperatures, or

LiRa [457]

Answer:

The rusting of iron is spontaneous at low temperatures.

Explanation:

The given chemical reaction is:

4Fe(s) + 3O2(g) ----> 2Fe2O3(s) [rust]

The rusting of iron is a chemical reaction in which iron reacts with oxygen in presence of moisture and forms iron oxide.

This reaction takes place in a faster rate when there is low temperatures in the atmosphere.

When temperature is low, the moisture in the atmosphere is more and hence, rate of rusting is more.
