Answer: potassium oxide.

Explanation:

K_2O is an ionic compound because potassium element is a metal and oxygen element is a non-metal. The bond formed between a metal and a non-metal is always ionic in nature.

The nomenclature of ionic compounds is given by:

1. Positive is written first.

2. The negative ion is written next and a suffix is added at the end of the negative ion. The suffix written is '-ide'.

Hence, the name of K_2O is potassium oxide.

Which shows the correct order of increasing trophic level, from producer to tertiary consumer?
polet [3.4K]

Answer:

Grass, deer, wolf, fungi.

Explanation:

The tropical level of an organism is defined as the position of organism occupied in the food chain. The food chain is starts from tropical level one which is primary producers (such as plants), then move to herbivores (such as deer) in level two, carnivores, (such as wolf) at level three, apex predators in level four (such as lions), and it ends in decomposers such as fungi.

Fungi play important role in ecosystem to help in breakdown of dead organic matter and return nutrients to the soil. Without fungi nutrients cannot cycle in an ecosystem, and causing the breakdown of entire food web.

True or false the si in sih4 does not follow the octet rule because hydrogen is in an unusual oxidation stat
ExtremeBDS [4]
The statement is true. The octet rule refers to the general rule of thumb wherein atoms of main-group elements tend to bond with other atoms in such a way that each atom possesses eight electrons (octet) in their valence shell. They tend to form the same electronic configuration as the noble gases. However, there are some exceptions to this rule. One of which is silane, SiH₄. A hydrogen atom only has 1 valence electron and needs another electron to complete its energy level. This is unlike other atoms, for example, carbon which has 4 valence electrons and needs to form 4 covalent bonds to fill its energy levels. Thus, 4 hydrogen atoms need only 4 more electrons. This is given by the silicon atom which has 4 valence electrons. Therefore, when a silicon atom is bonded to 4 hydrogen atoms, the resulting molecule, SiH₄, is a stable one.

3. A thin lead apron is used to protect patients from harmful X rays. If the sheet measures 75.0 cm by 55.0 cm by 0.10 cm, and t
DanielleElmas [232]

Answer:

4.67 kg

Explanation:

Given data

  • Dimensions of the lead sheet: 75.0 cm by 55.0 cm by 0.10 cm
  • Density of lead: 11.3 g/cm³

Step 1: Calculate the volume of the sheet

The volume of the sheet is equal to the product of its dimensions.

V = 75.0 cm \times  55.0 cm \times 0.10 cm = 413 cm^{3}

Step 2: Calculate the mass of the sheet

The density (ρ) is equal to the mass divided by the volume.

\rho = \frac{m}{V} \\m = \rho \times V = \frac{11.3g}{cm^{3} }  \times 413cm^{3} = 4.67 \times 10^{3} g = 4.67 kg
