7 0
The answer is:  [B]:  "ionic salt" .
___________________________________________________
Note:  There is no "sharing of electrons" among the elements in this compound; so this compound in NOT a "covalent molecule".

However, there is ionic bonding:  Cu²⁺ and  Cl⁻  ;  to form:  "CuCl₂" .

A supersonic jet is flying west at one-third of its maximum speed. The jet's top speed is 4,500 kilometres per hour. If the jet'
lana [24]

Answer:

2hrs

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Top speed of the jet = 4500km/hr

Distance  = 3000km

Unknown:

Time it will take = ?

Solution:

Velocity is the displacement divided by time.

        Velocity  = \frac{displacement}{time}  

         Time  = \frac{displacement}{velocity }  

 The jet flies at one - third its maximum speed;

  So, speed of the jet  = \frac{1}{3} x 4500 = 1500km/hr

Time = \frac{3000}{1500}   = 2hrs

What is the total number of joules released when a 5.00-gram sample of water changes from liquid to solid at 0°C?
Marrrta [24]
Energy released from changing the phase of a substance from the liquid phase to solid phase can be calculated by using the specific latent heat of fusion. The heat of fusion of water at 0 degrees Celsius is 334 J/g. Calculation are as follows:
<span>
Energy = 5 grams x 334 J/g
</span><span>Energy = 1670 J</span>

What is penetration? How is it related to shielding? Use the penetration effect to explain the difference in relative orbital en
Whitepunk [10]

Answer: penetration is the ability of an electron in a given orbital to approach the nucleus closely. Shielding refers to the fact that core electrons reduce the degree of nuclear attraction felt by the orbital electrons. Shielding is the opposite of penetration. The most penetrating orbital is the least screening orbital. The order of increasing shielding effect/decreasing penetration is s<p<d<f.

Explanation:

The order of penetrating power is 1s>2s>2p>3s>3p>4s>3d>4p>5s>4d>5p>6s>4f....

Since the 3p orbital is more penetrating than the 3d orbital, it will lie nearer to the nucleus and thus possess lower energy.
