 <span>Molecular compounds, which are represented by molecules, are usually made of non-metals only (or of metalloids and non-metals). Ionic compounds, which are represented by formula units, are made of metals and non-metals. 

More detail if you're interested: Molecules and formula units are the representative particles for molecular and ionic compounds, respectively. By that I mean, one unit of a molecular compound is a molecule...a bundle of atoms covalently bonded that exists separately from all the other molecules. One unit of an ionic compound is a formula unit. A formula unit is a representation of the compound's formula. For example, the formula unit of NaCl is one Na^+1 ion and one Cl^-1 ion. The formula unit of AlCl3 is one Al^+3 ion and three Cl^-1 ions. Ionic compounds don't have separate bundles of atoms like molecular compounds do, so the formula unit is just the smallest number of ions that it takes to represent the formula. </span>

A substance has a volume of 20 mL and a density of 2.5 g/mL. What is its mass?
k0ka [10]

Answer:

<h2>mass = 50 g</h2>

Explanation:

Density of a substance can be found by using the formula

Density(\rho) =  \frac{mass}{volume}

From the question

Density = 2.5 g/mL

volume = 20 mL

To find the mass substitute the values into the above formula and solve for the mass

That's

Making mass the subject we have

mass = Density × volume

mass = 2.5 × 20

We have the final answer as

<h3>mass = 50 g</h3>

Hope this helps you

How can you classify matter?
Lemur [1.5K]

Answer:

Matter can be broken down into two categories: pure substances and mixtures. Pure substances are further broken down into elements and compounds. Mixtures are physically combined structures that can be separated into their original components. A chemical substance is composed of one type of atom or molecule.

Hope this helps :)

Troyanec [42]

Answer:

See image attached for structure of CH3Br

Explanation:

A lewis structure structure is a representation of a covalent compound in which dots are used to show valence electrons, lone pairs and bonding electrons. The system was introduced by sir G.N Lewis in 1916 in his article titled 'Atom and Molecule'. They are also called dot electron diagrams of molecules. CH3Br molecule contains a total of fourteen electrons. Valence electrons are shown by dots around the atom of each element as clearly seen in the image attached.
