Answer:
there are approximately n ≈ 10²² moles
Explanation:
Since the radius of the earth is approximately R=6378 km= 6.378*10⁶ m , then the surface S of the earth would be
S= 4*π*R²
since the water covers 75% of the Earth's surface , the surface covered by water Sw is
Sw=0.75*S
the volume for a surface Sw and a depth D= 3 km = 3000 m ( approximating the volume through a rectangular shape) is
V=Sw*D
the mass of water under a volume V , assuming a density ρ= 1000 kg/m³ is
m=ρ*V
the number of moles n of water ( molecular weight M= 18 g/mole = 1.8*10⁻² kg/mole ) for a mass m is
n = m/M
then
n = m/M = ρ*V/M = ρ*Sw*D/M = 0.75*ρ*S*D/M = 3/4*ρ*4*π*R² *D/M = 3*π*ρ*R² *D/M
n=3*π*ρ*R² *D/M
replacing values
n=3*π*ρ*R² *D/M = 3*π*1000 kg/m³*(6.378*10⁶ m)² *3000 m /(1.8*10⁻² kg/mole) = 3*π*6.378*3/1.8 * 10²⁰ = 100.18 * 10²⁰ ≈ 10²² moles
n ≈ 10²² moles
The correct option is FLUORINE AND COPPER.
An ionic compound is usually formed by the combination of a metal and a non metal, the metal usually act as an electron donor while the non metal act as an electron acceptor. Thus, in ionic compounds, there is total transfer of electrons from the metal to the non metal. In the question given here, copper is the metal while the fluorine is the non metal.<span />
