Answer:

C) Covalent bonds come about because of a sharing of electrons; ionic bonds do not.

Explanation:

There are two main types of chemical bonds- covalent and ionic/electrovalent bonds.

Ionic bond: Ionic or electrovalent bonds are characterized by the transfer of electrons from electropositive atoms (metals) to electronegative atoms (non-metals). The metal atoms after donating their electrons become positively charged ions (cations) while the non-metal atoms after accepting electrons become negatively charged ions (anions). Strong electrostatic forces of attraction constitutes ionic bonds.

Covalent bond: Covalent bonds are formed by the sharing of electrons by the atoms involved in the bond; usually between atoms of comparable electronegativities or atoms of the same element. The shared electrons are contributed by each of the atoms involved in the bonding or may be contributed by only one of the atoms. In covalent bonding, molecules rather than ions are formed.

Al + 02 --> Al 2 0 3
nata0808 [166]

The coefficient for aluminium is 4.

Explanation:

We have the following chemical reaction:

Al + O₂ → Al₂O₃

In order to balance the chemical equation the number of the atoms entering the reaction should be equal to the number of atoms leaving the reaction.

2 Al + 3/2 O₂ → Al₂O₃

However we need integer numbers so we multiply everything with 2.

4 Al + 3 O₂ → 2 Al₂O₃

The coefficient for aluminium is 4.

How are fireworks made ?
Nadusha1986 [10]
Aerial fireworks are usually manufactured as a shell that is made up of four parts. The container consists of pasted paper. The fuse allows the shell to reach the desired altitude before exploding. A bursting charge made of black powder (like a firecracker) is at the center of the shell.

A state property X has a value 89.6 units. It undergoes the following changes, first increase by
yanalaym [24]

Answer:

B) -4.1 units

Explanation:

According to this question, a state property X has a value 89.6 units. It undergoes the certain changes as follows:

- first increase by 3.6 units

- then increase by another 18.7 units

- then decrease by 12.2 units

- and finally attains a value of 85.5 units

This can be mathematically represented by 89.6 - {3.6 + 18.7 - 12.2 - x) = 85.5

To get x, we say;

89.6 + 3.6 = 93.2

93.2 + 18.7 = 111.9

111.9 - 12.2 = 99.7

99.7 - 85.5 = 14.2units.

The changes that occured is represented as follows:

= (3.6 + 18.7) - (12.2 + 14.2)

= 22.3 - 26.4

= -4.1 units
