Answer:c

Explanation:

I think because ca^+2

It’s loses the ion and if u look back u would see that a cation is a t charge but it’s not Goan that electron it’s losing that electron

1. The pressure and temperature of a gas are held constant. Which of the following is true for the volume of the gas?
katovenus [111]
<h3>1.</h3>

C) The volume of the gas is proportional to the number of moles of gas particles.

The Avogadro's law applies to ideal gases with constant pressure and temperature. By that law, the volume of an ideal gas is proportional to the number of moles of particles in that gas.

<h3>2.</h3>

B) The gas now occupies less volume, and the piston will move downward.

Boyle's Law applies to ideal gases with a constant temperature. The volume of an ideal gas is inversely related to its pressure. A high pressure drives gas particles together, such that they occupy less volume. The gas trapped inside the piston has a smaller volume. As a result, the the piston will move downward.

Alternatively, consider the forces acting on the piston. Both the atmosphere and gravity are dragging the piston down. In order for it to stay in place, the gas below it must exert a pressure to balance the two forces. Now the pressure from outside has increased. The gas inside needs to increase its pressure. It needs a smaller volume to create that extra pressure. As a result, its volume will decrease, and the piston will move downwards.

Under which class of substitution reaction does this reaction appear to fall
liberstina [14]

This reaction is most likely to fall under SN2 because the thing called carbonication does not occur in SN1. The carbon forms a partial bond with the nucleophile during the intermediate phase and the leaving group. So for this question the reaction will fall under SN2.

What type of bond is is formed when electrons move permanently from one atom to another upon reaction?
VLD [36.1K]
Ionic bonding would be the answer because they transfer electrons. This gives them a charge. If it loses electrons, it becomes an cation, with a positive charge. While if they gain an electron, they get a negative charge, and become a anion. Transferring an electron is losing or gaining, therefore your answer would be that since electrons are permanently being transferred, the answer is IONIC BOND.

Covalent bonds is a wrong answer because they share electrons, which gives them no charge (neutral). 

Also, metallic bonding is not the correct answer. 

So our final answer: A- Ionic bond

What is the empirical formula for a compound that contains 10.89% magnesium 31.77% chloride and 57.34% oxygen
Blizzard [7]

Answer: Mg_{1}Cl_{2}O_{8}

Explanation:

If percentage are given then we are taking total mass is 100 grams.So, the mass of each element is equal to the percentage given.

Mass of Mg = 10.89 g

Mass of Cl = 31.77 g

Mass of O = 57.34 g

Step 1 : convert given masses into moles.

Moles of Mg=\frac {\text{ given mass of Mg}}{\text{ molar mass of Mg}}= \frac {10.89g}{24g/mole}=0.45moles

Moles of Cl = \frac {\text{ given mass of Cl}}{\text{ molar mass of Cl}}= \frac {31.77g}{35.5g/mole}=0.89moles

Moles of O =\frac {\text{ given mass of O}}{\text{ molar mass of O}}=\frac {57.34g}{16g/mole}=3.58moles

Step 2 : For the mole ratio, divide each value of moles by the smallest number of moles calculated.

For Mg = \frac {0.45}{0.45}=1

For Cl = \frac {0.89}{0.45}=2

For O= \frac {3.58}{0.45}=8

The ratio of Mg :Cl : O= 1 : 2 : 8

Hence the empirical formula is Mg_{1}Cl_{2}O_{8}

Explain the different melting points between ionic and covalent bonding
yarga [219]

Ionic bonding is formed in Ionic compounds due to electrostatic force between the oppositely charged ions.


In covalent bonds electrons are shared between the atoms. In case of ionic bond the bond is stronger as there is complete transfer of electrons from one ion to the other.


Since the ionic bonds are more difficult to break than the covalent bonds, ionic compounds have a higher melting point than covalent compounds.
