• What is an ion, and what makes a compound "ionic"?

Chemistry
1 answer:
KIM [24]3 years ago
5 0
Ionic compounds are compounds made up of ions. These ions are atoms that gain or lose electrons, giving them a net positive or negative charge. Metals tend to lose electrons, so they become cations and have a net positive charge. ... Ions of opposite charge are held together by very strong ionic bonds within the compound.

Calculate the volume of liquid in the tank sketched below. Give your answer in liters, and round to the nearest 0.1 L.
wariber [46]

Answer:

1.3 L

Explanation:

The volume of a rectangular cube can be calculated using the following formula:

Volume (L) = length (cm) x width (cm) x height (cm)

Keep in mind that 1 L = 1,000 cm³.

Before you can plug the values into the equation, you need to make sure they all have the same unit. Since the length is in meters (m), you need to first convert it to centimeters.

1 meter = 100 cm

 0.159 m           100 cm
---------------  x  ----------------  =  15.9 cm
                           1 m

Now, you can solve for the volume. To find the answer is the unit liters, you need to divide the volume by 1,000.

Volume = l x w x h

Volume = 15.9 cm x 10.5 cm x 7.7 cm

Volume = 1,285.5 cm³

Volume = 1.2855 L ------>  Volume = 1.3 L

A scientist finds that a sample of matter contains three types of atoms. The sample can be any of the following, except:
GrogVix [38]

Answer:

The correct answer is C. element

Explanation:

The sample cannot be an element because an element - or <em>elemental substance</em> - cannot be decomposed into simpler substances. Thus, it cannot be composed by differents types of atoms. For example, an element is carbon (C).

As the sample contains <u>three types of atoms</u>, it can be a compound, a molecule or a mixture, because they can be composed by different types of atoms - of different chemical elements. For example, the sample could contain the element carbon (C) combined with other elements, for example oxygen (O) or hydrogen (H), amoing others.
