Answer:

Option (C)

Explanation:

A metal detector is usually defined as an instrument that is commonly used to detect the presence of metals in the bags and luggage. It is very widely used in places like airports, railway stations, and other important official places.

This device is generally activated with the help of electromagnetic induction. It contains a single or numerous inducting coils which are connected to the elements placed on the ground surface. These used materials are metallic in nature. Within the region of the electromagnetic field, when any metallic substance enters, it immediately gains energy and thereby transmits an electromagnetic field of its own.

Thus, the correct answer is option (C).

First, let's start off by finding the mass of this whole hydrate.
(Note: the unit of measurement for mass will be amu)

Let's find the molecular mass of each element.
Co=58.933
Cl=35.45
H=1.008
O=15.999

Now, let's find the mass of each compound.

CoCl_2=58.933+2(35.45)=129.833
H_2O=2(1.008)+15.999=18.015

We have 6 molecules of H2O, so multiply 18.015 by 6 then add that with the weight of CoCl2.

6(18.015)=108.09
129.833+108.09=237.923

Now divide 108.09 (mass of all the H2O in the hydrate) by 237.923 (total mass of hydrate).

\dfrac{108.09}{237.923}

\approx0.45431

Turn that into a percentage and you get 45.431%.
Hope this helps! :)

explain why ionic compounds are not electrical conductors in the solid state, but conduct electricity when dissolved.
Alik [6]

Answer:

Hi !

Here is your answer !

Ionic compounds cannot conduct electricity when solid, as their ions are held in fixed positions and cannot move.

Explanation:

Ionic compounds conduct electricity when molten (liquid) or in aqueous solution (dissolved in water), because their ions are free to move from place to place.

Thank You !
