Ca-Cl is an ionic bond. We know this because the difference between their electronegativities is 2.16.The electronegativity tells us which atom will attract the electron more than the other. Hence, chlorine attracts the electron a lot more than the calcium.A difference of more than 1.6 (or 1.7 depending on the source) implies that the electrons are so unevenly shared, that the bond is ionic, rather than polar covalent.

What is the mass of 2 moles of carbon -12
olchik [2.2K]

Answer:

2 moles of C-12 have 24g mass

Explanation:

Given data:

Number of moles of C-12= 2 mol

Mass of C-12 = ?

Solution:

Formula:

Number of moles = mass / molar mass

Molar mass of C-12 = 12 g/mol

Now we will put the values in formula.

2 mol  = mass / 12 g/mol

Mass = 2 mol ×  12 g/mol

Mass = 24 g

Thus 2 moles of C-12 have 24 g mass.

Seawater becomes warmer it expands. Heat in the upper layer of the ocean is released quickly into the atmosphere. However, heat absorbed by the deeper layers of the ocean will take much longer to be released and therefore, be stored in the ocean much longer and have significant impacts on future ocean warming.
