Answer: Option (a) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

A compound formed by sharing of electrons is known as a covalent compound. Whereas a compound formed by donating electrons is known as ionic bond.

Also, it is known that an ionic or polar compound is soluble in polar solvent like water. And a non-polar compound is soluble in a non-polar solvent.

For example, sodium has 11 electrons and chlorine has 17 electrons. So sodium will donate one extra electron to chlorine in order to complete their octet. Hence, it will result in the formation of an ionic compound.

Thus, we can conclude that the statement it is made up of ions that are held together by ionic bonds, is true.

how can we relate the presence if color in an ionic solution as a characteristic lf electron configuration
Debora [2.8K]
Answer:
Colours come from electrons moving between shells. The energy of light matches the energy gaps between electron shells.
Explanation:
Electrons are arranged in energy levels (shells) and there are energy gaps between shells. Electrons must be in one shell and cannot be in between. Electrons can move from one shell to another in the right conditions.
When an atoms absorbs energy from heat or light, the atom starts to move a little faster, in other words, it gets warmer. If the energy absorbed is just right to match the energy gap between shells, electrons can jump from one shell to another.
If an object is red, then the energy between gaps during light absorption is equal to the energy of the complementary light color, green.
If the object emits red light, then the energy between gaps during light emission is equal to the energy of red light.

A 1.268 g sample of a metal carbonate, MCO₃, was treated 100.00 mL of 0.1083 M H₂SO₄, yielding CO₂ gas and an aqueous solution o
attashe74 [19]

Answer:

MCO3 is BaCO3

The mass of CO2 produced is 0.28g of CO2

Explanation:

The first step in solving the question is to put down the balanced reaction equations as shown in the image attached. Secondly, we obtain the relative number of moles acid and base as mentioned in the question. The balanced neutralization reaction equation is used to obtain the number of moles of excess acid involved in the neutralization reaction.

This is then subtracted from the total number of moles acid to give the number of moles of acid that reacted with MCO3. From here, the molar mass of MCO3 and identity of M can be found. Hence the mass of CO2 produced is calculated as shown.

According to the collision theory, what is the best explanation for why a higher temperature makes a reaction go faster?
Margarita [4]
A higher temperature makes the particles move faster, that makes them collide more often. The answer would be this: "It increases the average kinetic energy and number of collisions per minute."
