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.

How many atoms are in KCI
vovikov84 [41]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

2 atoms

<h3>Explanation:</h3>
  • Compounds are substances that are formed when two or more elements chemically combine.
  • They are made up of molecules that contain different atoms from different elements.
  • For example, KCl is a compound that is made up of two atoms, one potassium atom and one chloride atom.
  • Unlike elements that are made of similar atoms, compounds contains atoms that are not similar from different elements.

What mass of CaCO3 is required to react completely with 0.56 L of HCl?
Lina20 [59]
The balanced equation for the above reaction is as follows;
CaCO₃ + 2HCl ----> CaCl₂ + H₂O + CO₂
stoichiometry of CaCO₃ to HCl is 1:2
molar volume states that 1 mol of any gas occupies a volume of 22.4 L at STP.
volume of 22.4 L occupied by 1 mol
therefore 0.56 L occupied by - 0.56 L / 22.4 L/mol = 0.025 mol
number of HCl moles reacted - 0.025 mol
2 mol of HCl reacts with 1 mol of CaCO₃
therefore 0.025 mol reacts with - 0.025/2 = 0.0125 mol 
mass of CaCO₃ required - 0.0125 mol x 100 g/mol = 1.25 g 
1.25 g of CaCO₃ is required

Calculate the hydronium ion and hydroxide ion concentrations in human blood at 25oc
sukhopar [10]

Using the equation, pH = − log [H+] , we can solve for [H+] as,

− pH = log [H+] ,

[H+] = 10−pH.

Exponentiate both sides with base 10 to "undo" the common logarithm. The hydrogen ion concentration of blood with pH 7.4 is,

[H+] = 10−7.4 ≈ 0.0000040 = 4.0 × 10−8 M.
