For the answer to the question above, Copper does not form a diatomic molecule. A diatomic molecule has only two atoms. Diatomic molecules are the molecule that is composed of two same atoms which are bonded covalently. An example is an oxygen, it exists as O2 and chlorine, it exists as Cl2. I hope my answer helped you.

A diatomic molecule is one that forms a bond between two of the same molecule. The main diatomic molecules are Hydrogen, Oxygen, Nitrogen, Fluorine, Chlorine, Bromine, and Iodine. There are many reasons in quantum mechanics for this answer, but the simplest way to think about this is that the atoms want to have an outer shell of eight electrons, except for hydrogen, which wants to have two. Hydrogen, nitrogen, and chlorine can all bond with another atom of the same type to satisfy their full outer shell. Copper, on the other hand, does not form with one other copper to form Cu2, so the answer is D. Copper.

Which prey is common to all owls?
IrinaK [193]

Answer:

Mice

Explanation:

Small, rodent-like mammals, such as voles and mice, are the primary prey for many owl species. An owl's diet may also include frogs, lizards, snakes, fish, mice, rabbits, birds, squirrels, and other creatures. Occasionally, Great Horned Owls might even find skunks tasty enough to eat.

Assuming equal concentrations and complete dissociation, rank these aqueous solutions by their freezing points. nh4cl cobr3 k2so
Illusion [34]
Answer: CoBr3 < K2SO4 < NH4 Cl

Justification:

1) The depression of the freezing point of a solution is a colligative property, which means that it depends on the number of particles of solute dissolved.

2) The formula for the depression of freezing point is:

ΔTf = i * Kf * m

Where i is the van't Hoof factor which accounts for the dissociation of the solute.

Kf is the freezing molal constant and only depends on the solvent

m is the molality (molal concentration).

3) Since, you are assuming equal concentrations and complete dissociation of the given solutes, the solute with more ions in the molecular formula will result  in the solution with higher depression of the freezing point (lower freezing point).

4) These are the dissociations of the given solutes:

a) NH4 Cl (s) --> NH4(+)(aq) + Cl(-) (aq) => 1 mol --> 2 moles

b) Co Br3 (s) --> Co(3+) (aq) + 3Br(-)(aq) => 1 mol --> 4 moles

c) K2SO4 (s) --> 2K(+) (aq) + SO4 (2-) (aq) => 1 mol --> 3 moles

5) So, the rank of solutions by their freezing points is:

CoBr3 < K2SO4 < NH4 Cl

Why do ionic compounds conduct electric current when they are melted or dissolved in water?

When sodium carbonate is dissolved in water, the equation is Na_2CO_3 (s) --- > 2Na^+ (aq) + CO_3^{2-} (aq).

When carbon dioxide is placed in water, aqueous carbon dioxide is formed:  CO_2 (g) --- > CO_2(aq)

<h3>Dissolution of compounds in water</h3>

Some compounds are water-soluble, some are just partially soluble, while others are insoluble in water. Some soluble or partially soluble substances dissociate in water into their component ions. These substances are said to be ionic.

Sodium carbonate, like every other sodium salt, is soluble in water. It dissolves in water to form an aqueous solution of sodium carbonate.

While in solution, sodium carbonate dissociates into its component ions according to the following equation:

Na_2CO_3 (s) --- > 2Na^+ (aq) + CO_3^{2-} (aq)

Carbon dioxide, on the other hand, does not dissociate in water. Instead, it dissolves in water where most of it remains as aqueous carbon dioxide in equilibrium with a small amount of hydronium ion and hydrogen carbonate ion.

Since the hydronium and hydrogen carbonate ions formed are so minute, the equation of the reaction can be written as: CO_2 (g) --- > CO_2(aq)
