Answer:

K₂S(s) → 2K⁺(aq) + S²⁻(aq)

Explanation:

A strong electrolyte is a compound that, in solution, dissociates completely. For a compound XₐYₙ that dissolves in water:

XₐYₙ(s) → aXⁿ⁺(aq) + nYᵃ⁻(aq)

Now, potassium sulfide (K₂S), as a strong electrolyte dissolves in water thus:

<em>K₂S(s) → 2K⁺(aq) + S²⁻(aq)</em>

. an ionic compound is composed of 34.95 g of iron and 15.05 g of oxygen. find the empirical formula of this compound.
Contact [7]

Empirical formula of ionic compound is FeO. In which the composition of atoms is 1 : 1.

Empirical formula of an ionic compound is defined as the formula which gives whole number ratio of atoms of various elements present in molecule of compund.

mass of iron in compound = 34.95 g

molar mass of iron = 55.8 g

mass of oxygen in compound = 15.05 g

molar mass of oxygen = 32 g

number of moles of iron present in the compound are ratio of mass of iron in compound/ molar mass of iron

number of moles of iron in compound= 34.95 / 55.8 = 0.6263 ~ 1

number of moles oxygen in compound= 15.05/ 32 = 0.473 ~ 0.5

the ratio of the number of oxygen atoms to number of iron atoms present in one formula unit of iron compund is 2×0.5 / 1 = 1 : 1

Hence , the required empirical formula of iron compound is FeO.

Kepler and Newton studied the movement of planets. Kepler studied the speed of the planets while Newton studied the forces that
nasty-shy [4]
Kepler did not study the speed of the planets, rather, he studied how the planets move in the solar system. He proposed three laws. As a summary, he described that the planets move around the sun in the shape of an ellipse (orbit), and the Sun being one of the foci. Then, he proposed the period for the planet to complete one revolution around the Sun. 

On the other hand, Newton studied the forces acting on the planet (or any object in space) that explain how the planets move around the solar system as described by Kepler. Also, Kepler's observations only apply to planets and not the moons or satellites. Thus, Kepler only made laws from observations, while Newton based it from underlying principles that led him to mathematical equations such as the law of universal gravitation.

What is the mass of 18.0 mL of honey if its' density is 1.42 g/mL?
BigorU [14]

mass (m) = ? , volume = 18.0 ml , density = 1.42 g/ml .

density =  \frac{mass}{volume}  \\  \\ d =  \frac{m}{v}  \\  \\ mass = density \times volume \\  \\ m = d \times v \\  \\ m = 18 \: ml \times  \: 1.42 \:  \frac{g}{ml}  \\  \\ m = 25.56 \: g

Calculate the frequency of radiation with a wavelength of 1.08 x 10^-6 m. simple explanation please​
pishuonlain [190]
C = vf
c stands for the speed of waves (which is a constant that is 3 x 10^8)
v stands for the wavelength (which is given)
f stands for frequency (what we are solving for)
3 x 10^8 = (1.08 x 10^-6)f
Divide both sides by the given wavelength
f = 2.78 * 10^14 seconds

The idea that the earth is divided into a number of small plates that float on the mantle and slide,collide,and slip past each o
IgorLugansk [536]

Answer:

Theories

Explanation:

It is theories because it was a generalistee abstract or thinking generalising the principle of fact about Earth tectonic plates ,it was formulated and concluded as plate tectonic theories after many findings. The theories conclude that the Earth has an outer layer called lithosphere and lies overly a plastic layer called asthenosphere. The lithosphere is divided into several plates and they move close to each other where they diverge, converge or slip over one another.
