Salts and acids are examples of inorganic compounds called Electrolytes which dissociate in water to release ions.

<h2>Further Explanation: </h2><h3>A compound  </h3>
  • A compound is a substances that contains two or more different atoms that are bonded together.
  • When the atoms are similar the substance is known as a molecule, therefore not all molecules are compounds.
<h3>Electrolytes</h3>
  • Electrolytes are substances that are either in molten or aqueous form that discharged by passing electric current through them. They dissociate into ions while in molten or solution form.
  • These compounds are made of mobile ions which are responsible for the conduction of electricity.
  • Examples includes, soluble salts, ionic compounds, acids, and bases etc.
<h3>Salt </h3>
  • A salt is a substance that is formed when an acid reacts with a base or when the hydrogen part of acid is replaced by metal ion or an ammonium ion.
<h3>Ionic compounds </h3>
  • Ionic compounds are compounds that contain ions. They are as a result of ionic bonding between a metal atom and a non-metal atom.
  • During ionic bonding formation the metallic atom looses electrons while the non-metallic atom gains electrons.
  • Ionic compounds contains both negatively charged ion(anion) and positively charged ion (cation).
  • Examples of ionic compounds, NaCl, LiF, KCl, Cs2S, KBr, PbS etc.
  • Most ionic compounds may act as electrolytes.

Keywords: Compound, electrolytes, salts, ionic compounds, soluble acids, bases.

Answer:

Salts and acids are examples of inorganic compounds called <u><em>electrolytes</em></u>.

Explanation:

Electrolytes are the substances which dissociates into ions when dissolved in water and due to this they are able to conduct electric current through them.  These compounds in solid form does not conduct electricity due to the absence of free ions.

For example: Sodium chloride , sulfuric acid etc.

NaCl(aq)\righarrow = Na^+(aq)+Cl^-(aq)

H_2SO_4(aq)\rightarrow SO_4^{2-}(aq)+2H^+(aq)

How do I calculate the molecular weight of Mg(OH)2?
vodomira [7]

The molecular weight of Mg(OH)2 : 58 g/mol

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

Mg(OH)2 compound

Required

The molecular weight

Solution

Relative atomic mass (Ar) of element : the average atomic mass of its isotopes  

Relative molecular weight (M)  : The sum of the relative atomic mass of Ar  

M AxBy = (x.Ar A + y. Ar B)  

So for Mg(OH)2 :

= Ar Mg + 2 x Ar O + 2 x Ar H

= 24 g/mol + 2 x 16 g/mol + 2 x 1 g/mol

= 24 + 32 + 2

= 58 g/mol

A horse gallops along a racecourse at a speed of 40 km/h. It takes the horse 3 minutes to run the length of the track.
Natali [406]

To convert minutes to hours we divide the minutes by 60. So if we divide 3 by 60 we get 0.05 hours.

<h3>How to convert minutes into hour?</h3>

We know that in hour, there are 60 minutes so if we go from minutes to hours then we have to divide the number by 60 and when we go from hours to minutes we multiply with the same 60 number.

So we can conclude that to convert minutes to hours we divide the minutes by 60. So if we divide 3 by 60 we get 0.05 hours.

Answer: one molecule of O2.

Explanation: sweet i just took a guess but I believe that if 3 o2 molecules - 2 h2 molecules I think that its just basic maths and it is C because 3-2 = 1 and its o2 remaining, sorry if I’m wrong.
