Which statement best explains why BaCl2 is an ionic compound?

Biology
1 answer:
Triss [41]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

D. The neutral atom Cl gains 1 electron.

Explanation:

Ionic bond:

It is the bond which is formed by the transfer of electron from one atom to the atom of another element.  

Both bonded atoms have very large electronegativity difference. The atom with large electronegativity value accept the electron from other with smaller value of electronegativity.

For example:

Barium chloride is ionic compound. The electronegativity of chlorine is 3.16 and for sodium is 0.89. There is large difference is present. That's why two valence electron from barium is transfer to the chlorine. Barium becomes positive and chlorine becomes negative ion. Both atoms are bonded together electrostatic attraction occur between anion and cations.  There are two valence electron lost by barium while chlorine required one electron to complete the octet thus two chlorine atoms are bonded with one barium atom. Each atom of chlorine carry -1 charge while one barium atom have +2 charge.

explain why a mouse (an endotherm) would probably have wider bone rings than a similarly sized lizard (an ectotherm).
____ [38]

Write in your own words:

"Since the mouse is an endotherm, it probably has a higher metabolic rate, and thus a faster growth rate, than the lizard (an ectotherm of similar size) does. If the mouse has a faster growth rate, its bones would grow more between each ring, resulting in wider bone rings."

: )

and remember that a mouse is a endotherm because it generates metabolic heat to maintain internal body temperature.

Describe how the role of phloem would would be affected if the leaves start to die off
Naya [18.7K]
The conductive tissues of the angiosperms are the xylem which drives the raw sap and the phloem which conducts the elaborate sap.The phloem, or liber, drives the elaborate sap, solution of organic substances rich in carbohydrates, from the leaves to the other organs.

The elaborate sap (which contains organic substances produces by photosynthesis) is produced in the leaves, where the majority of the chlorophyll subsist, so if the leave die off, the production of organic substances and the elaborate sap are reduced, so its transport by the phloem will be reduced, and this is how the phloem will be affected by the dying of the leaves.
