Chemistry
1 answer:
Anna007 [38]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Ionic compounds

Explanation:

Molecular formula consists of chemical symbols for constituent elements followed by the numeric subscripts describing number of the atoms of each element present in one molecule of the compound.

On the other hand, ionic compounds do not exist in the form of molecules. They are in the form of crystal lattice in the solid state which contains many ions each of cation and anion.

<u>Thus, a ionic compounds are unable to write a molecular formula. Empirical formulas to used to represent them.</u>

A rock that has a mass if 180 grams dropped in a graduated cylinder that was originally filled to 52ml; it now reads 62ml. What
Vlad [161]

Answer:

<h2>18 g/mL</h2>

Explanation:

The density of a substance can be found by using the formula

density =  \frac{mass}{volume} \\

volume = final volume of water - initial volume of water

volume = 62 - 52 = 10 mL

From the question we have

density =  \frac{180}{10}  \\

We have the final answer as

<h3>18 g/mL</h3>

Hope this helps you
