Answer:
59.8%
Explanation:
First find the Mr of manganese (III) nitrate.
Mr of Mn(NO₃)₃ = 54.9 + (14 × 3) + (16 × 3 × 3) = <u>240.9</u>
Since we have to find the percentage composition of oxygen, we need to find the Mr of oxygen in the compound, which is:
Mr of (O₃)₃ = (16 × 3) × 3 = <u>144</u>
Now we can find percentage composition / percentage by mass of oxygen.
% composition = 
× 100
% composition = 
× 100 = <u>59.776%</u>
∴ % compostion of oxygen in maganese(III)nitrate is 59.8% (to 3 significant figures).
Answer:
Ionic Compounds have high boiling and melting points as they're very strong and require a lot of energy to break. The electrostatic forces of attraction between oppositely charged ions lead to the formation of ions. Ionic compounds form crystals. These compounds are brittle and break into small pieces easily.

Answer:
The correct option is e
Explanation:
Hydrogen bond is an intermolecular interaction/bonding that are formed between an electronegative atom (such as nitrogen, oxygen and fluorine) and a hydrogen atom. They are weak intermolecular bonds compared to covalent bonds but account for the high boiling point of water because of the strong hydrogen bond presence between the water molecules. Water molecules form hydrogen bonds between each other; since an oxygen atom (in a water molecule) has two lone pairs on it's outermost shell, it forms an hydrogen bond with two hydrogen atoms of other water molecule. Due to the fluidity of liquid water molecules, hydrogen bonds keep getting broken (although recreated/formed almost immediately), hence, individual hydrogen bonds in liquid water does not exist for long.
In the explanation above, it was stated that the strength of the hydrogen bond in water is the reason for it's high boiling point. The atoms in a water molecule are bent NOT linear hence the strength of hydrogen bond does not depend on the linearity of the atoms involved in the bond.
Answer:
C
Explanation:
The early ideas of the atom states that the indivisible object is hollow or is a solid object with nothing inside. The later discoveries or works of the scientists states that inside the atoms are the subatomic particles which are the electrons, protons, and neutrons.
The correct answer is less wind and more wind. Good luck :)
