Water is made of only one molecule which can be chemically separated into hydrogen and oxygen. The answer is D.
Answer: HCl
Explanation:
calcium carbonate dissolves in HCl acid producing CO 2 gas. It will not dissolve in pure water. The Ksp for calcium carbonate in water is 3.4 x 10-9 moldm-3 which is very low. What takes place here is actually a chemical reaction:
CaCO 3 (s) + 2HCl(aq) → CaCl 2 (aq) + H 2CO 3(aq)
This reaction accounts for the solubility of the Calcium carbonate in HCl and not in pure water.
An ionic compound consists of a metal AND a non-metal.
<em>Option A:</em>
Oxygen and fluorine are non-metals.
<em>Option B:</em>
Sodium and aluminium are non-metals.
<em>Option C:</em>
Calcium is a metal and chlorine is a non-metal.
<em>Option D:</em>
Nitrogen and sulfur are non-metals.
Thus, the answer is C.
False
Explanation: Carbon is the central atom which has valency of 4 and can form 4 bonds to complete its octet. Each chlorine has valency of 1 and can form only one bond to complete its octet. Thus carbon can bond with four chlorine atoms through sharing of electrons to form four single bonds. Thus it cannot contain a double bond.
