Answer:

Both metals and non metals.

Explanation:

The correct formula of baking soda is NaHCO₃,

An element is considered to be metal if it is able to give electron easily due to very low ionization energy.

A non metal is ready to accept electron easily due to high electron affinity.

In sodium bicarbonate :

Na: Sodium : metal

H : Hydrogen: non metal (although placed with first group, alkali metals, in the periodic table as it readily loses electron like metals)

C: Carbon: Non metal

O : Oxygen : Non metal.

So the compound contains both metals and non metals.

Which statement is true?
Setler79 [48]
The first statement is true because s<span>peed, being a scalar quantity, is the rate at which an object covers distance. The average speed is the distance (a scalar quantity) per time ratio. Speed has nothing to do with direction. On the other hand, velocity is a vector quantity because direction is needed for this. </span>

How many moles of carbon dioxide should be produced from the decomposition of 0.100 g of sodium bicarbonate?
Gre4nikov [31]
The chemical symbol for sodium bicarbonate is NaHCO3. Its molar mass is 84 g/mol. In each of one mol of sodium bicarbonate their is one mole of carbon dioxide with the molar mass of 44 grams per mol. We determine the number of moles in 0.10 g of sodium bicarbonate. 
                         n sodium bicarbonate = (0.10 g) / (84 grams / mol)
                                                            = 1.19 x 10-3 moles sodium bicarbonate
Therefore, there are also 1.19 x 10-3 moles of carbon dioxide.
