I NEED HELP PLEASE, THANKS! :)Explain why ionic compounds are always polar.

Chemistry
1 answer:
evablogger [386]3 years ago
3 0

Answer and Explanation:

Polar compounds are those that have an unequal sharing of electrons, causing one end to be more positively or negatively charged than the other end.

Ionic compounds are those that are made up of a positive ion and a negative ion. Clearly, we can see that if one ion is positive and the other is negative, then that would make one end of the compound more or less positively charged than the other end, which is exactly the definition of a polar compound.

That is why ionic compounds are always polar.

Oxygen decays to form nitrogen. 15 8 O → 15 7 N + 0 1 e This type of nuclear decay is called
Natasha2012 [34]

The type of nuclear decay in which Oxygen decays to form nitrogen is beta plus decay.

<h3>What is a beta plus decay?</h3>

A beta plus decay is a type of decay in which a proton in an element disintegrates to produce a neutron resulting in a decrease in the atomic number of the radioactive element.

In the given equation below:

  • ^{15}_{7}O \rightarrow ^{15}_{7}N + ^{0}_{1}e

Oxygen decays to form nitrogen due to a decrease in atomic number.

This is an example of beta plus decay.

In conclusion, oxygen decays to form nitrogen beta plus decay.

Question 5
Kobotan [32]

This hypothesis can be further substantiated by having different concentrations of acid and the same mass of limestone.

<h3>Rate of reaction</h3>

Though the question is incomplete, we must try to answer it the much we can. Recall that a hypothesis is a tentative explanation for an observation which is subject to empirical verification.

We know that the rate of reaction depends on the concentration of the acid. This hypothesis can be further substantiated by having different concentrations of acid and the same mass of limestone.

Will a precipitate form from Pb(NO3)2(aq) and HCl(aq)?
Rus_ich [418]
1. Write out the formula Pb(NO3)2 (aq) + 2HCl (aq) ----> PbCl2 + 2HNO3 2. Use solubility guidelines (gotta memorize 'em) for the products to see if a solid forms Nitrates are always soluble so 2HNO3 (aq) Chlorides (Cl) are always soluble except for when you mix them with copper, lead, mercury, or silver. Since you mixed it with lead (Pb) it is solid and forms a precipitate. PbCl2 (s)
