Answer:
Explanation:
There are two main types of ocean currents: currents driven mainly by wind and currents mainly driven by density differences. Density depends on temperature and salinity of the water. Cold and salty water is dense and will sink. Warm and less salty water will float.
Answer
Ionic compounds are formed when metals react with non-metals . Ionic compounds held together by ionic bonds are classed as ionic compounds.
Explanation:
I used this to awnser this queston when I was a freshmen in high school.
Answer:
1. (NH₄)₂S(s) -----> NH₄+(aq) + S²-(aq)
2. Al³+ (aq) + PO₄³+ (aq) ----> AlPO₄ (s)
Explanation:
The dissociation of ammonium sulphide, (NH₄)₂S when dissolved in water is given in the equation below:
(NH₄)₂S(s) -----> NH₄+(aq) + S²-(aq)
However very little S²- ions are present in solution due to the very basic nature of the S²- ion (Kb = 1 x 105).
The ammonium ion being a better proton donor than water, donates a proton to sulphide ion to form hydrosulphide ion which exists in equilibrium with aqueous ammonia.
S²- (aq) + NH₄+ (aq) ⇌ SH- (aq) + NH₃ (aq)
Aqueous solutions of ammonium sulfide are smelly due to the release of hydrogen sulfide and ammonia, hence, their use in making stink bombs.
2. The reaction between aluminium nitrate and sodium phosphatein aqueous solution is a double decomposition reaction whish results in the precipitation of insoluble aluminium phosphate. The equation of the reaction is given below :
Al(NO₃)₃ (aq) + Na₃PO₄ (aq) ----> AlPO₄ (s) + 3 NaNO₃ (aq)
The net ionic equation is given below:
Al³+ (aq) + PO₄³+ (aq) ----> AlPO₄ (s)
Answer:
A hypothesis is a possible explanation for a set of observations or an answer to a scientific question. A hypothesis must be testable and measurable.
