Answer:
B. Ionic Compound
Explanation:
An ionic compound is that compound which contains a positively charged ion called CATION and a negatively charged ion called ANION. The cation loses or transfers electrons to the anion, hence, making the former (cation) positive and the latter (anion) negative.
A polyatomic ion is an ion that contains more than one type of atom e.g OH-, NO3²-, CO3²- etc. A polyatomic ion usually has an overall charge formed from the charges of the individual atoms that makes it up. For example, in OH-, the overall charge is -1.
Since a polyatomic ion can have an overall positive or negative charge, it must enter a reaction with another ion that complements it i.e. a negative polyatomic ion will react with a positive ion to neutralize its charge. Hence, this forms an IONIC COMPOUND. This is why most compounds with polyatomic ions are IONIC COMPOUNDS.
For example, CaCO3 is an ionic compound formed when Ca²+ (cation) reacts with the polyatomic anion: CO3²-
3.0e23 atoms Ne
"E" means 10^
Then we multiply it by a mole of Ne. By the definetion of a mole, it is always 6.022e23 atoms of an element.
So now, we do this:
3.0e23 atoms Ne x (1 mol Ne / 6.022e23 atoms Ne)
After that, we use molar mass. A mole of Neon is equal, in terms of grams, to its avg. atomic mass. This goes true for any element.
It ends up like this:
3.0e23 atoms Ne x (1 mol Ne / 6.022e23 atoms Ne) x (20.1797 g Ne / 1 mol Ne)
Now cancel out the "atoms Ne" and "1 mol Ne"
You end up with a grand total of...
*plugs everything into a calculator*
10.05298... g Ne.
We need to round to 2 sig. figs. (3.0) so now it's....
10 g Ne.
Note that this method can only be used for converting atoms of an element to mass in grams.
