The correct option is FLUORINE AND COPPER.
An ionic compound is usually formed by the combination of a metal and a non metal, the metal usually act as an electron donor while the non metal act as an electron acceptor. Thus, in ionic compounds, there is total transfer of electrons from the metal to the non metal. In the question given here, copper is the metal while the fluorine is the non metal.<span />

Why is Potassium not used in school laboratory
densk [106]
<h3>Because it is harmful for school environment.</h3>

Potassium Metal Is Explosive— Do Not Use It! The reaction of sodium with water is a spectacular and essential classroom demonstration. Many teachers want to show also the more violent reaction of potassium. We propose not to do so because explosions can happen even before the metal is in contact with water.

If a gas in a closed container is pressurized from 15.0 atmospheres to 16.0
Yuki888 [10]

Answer:

T₂ = 317.87 K

Explanation:

Given data:

Initial pressure = 15 atm

Final pressure = 16 atm

Initial temperature = 298 K

Final temperature = ?

Solution:

According to Gay-Lussac Law,

The pressure of given amount of a gas is directly proportional to its temperature at constant volume and number of moles.

Mathematical relationship:

P₁/T₁ = P₂/T₂

Now we will put the values in formula:

15 atm / 298K = 16 atm/T₂

T₂ = 16atm × 298 K / 15 atm

T₂ = 4768 atm. K / 15 atm

T₂ = 317.87 K
