Answer: Option (d) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

A process in which a compound in a chemical reaction results in the formation of ions is known as ionization.

Whereas dissociation is a process in which a compound divides into atoms, ions or radicals.

A chemical compound which when dissolved in a solution forms ions and thus, conducts electricity is known as electrolyte.

A chemical reaction in which a compound reacts or combines with water is known as hydration.

Therefore, we can conclude that ionization is the term which refers to the formation of ions as a result of a chemical reaction.

Thank you for posting your question here at brainly. I hope the answer will help you. Feel free to ask more questions.

Ionization is the term <span>refers to the formation of ions as a result of a chemical reaction.

</span>Ionization<span>, in general, occurs whenever sufficiently energetic charged particles or radiant energy travel through gases, liquids, or solids. Charged particles, such as alpha particles and electrons from radioactive materials, cause extensive </span>ionization<span>along their paths.</span>

Osmosis and diffusion are related processes that display similarities. Both osmosis and diffusion equalize the concentration of two solutions. Both diffusion and osmosis are passive transport processes, which means they do not require any input of extra energy to occur. In both diffusion and osmosis, particles move from an area of higher concentration to one of lower concentration. Osmosis and facilitated diffusion both account for movement of molecules from a region of high concentration to a region of low concentration.

A plate moves 200 m in 10,000 years. What is its rate in cm/year?

Varvara68 [4.7K]

Answer:

The answer is

Explanation:

To find the rate in cm/year we must first convert 200 m into cm

1 m = 100 cm

if 1 m = 100 cm

Then 200 m = 200 × 100 = 20 ,000 cm

So the rate is

<u>Reduce the fraction with 10,000</u>

We have the final answer as

What is the identity of the element, and how many neutrons does it have? An elements most stable ion forms an ionic compound wit

Pani-rosa [81]

Answer:

B. CA, 14

Explanation:

Atoms of elements contain small particles known as electrons, neutrons, and protons. The nucleus of an atom is made up of neutrons and protons which are at the center of the atom. Electrons on the other hand surrounds the nucleus. Electron has negative charge while proton has a positive charge. The number of neutrons is equivalent to the number of protons . In addition, the number of protons is equal to mass number minus the number of electrons.

For the compound $XCl_{2}$ , it can be broken down into $X^{2+}$ and $2Cl^{-}$ . Its ion has a mass of 34 and 18 electrons which means it has already lost 2 electrons.

Therefore:

For the given element, the number of electrons is 18+2 = 20 electrons.

The number of protons = 34 - 20 = 14.

And the number of neutrons is 14.

Only option B has the correct answer.
