CaC2

Ca - Group 2 metal
C - Group 4 non-metal

It is an ionic compound. :)

Explanation: Ionic compounds has a giant lattice structure with strong electrostatic forces of attraction between ions of Metal and Non-Metal. This compound require a large amount of energy/heat to overcome.

Covalent compounds has a simple molecular structure with weak intermolecular bonds with Non-metals only. This compound requires little energy/heat to overcome.

What would be the minimum energy Emin required to excite a hydrogen atom from its lowest energy level
Wewaii [24]

The minimum energy required to excite a hydrogen atom from its lowest energy level is 10.2 eV.

<h3>What is excitation?</h3>

The term excitation has to do with the promotion of an electron from a lower to a higher energy level.

In this case, we are dealing with the hydrogen atom having only one electron. Thus, the minimum energy required to excite a hydrogen atom from its lowest energy level is 10.2 eV.

Classify each of these soluble solutes as a strong electrolyte, a weak electrolyte, or a nonelectrolyte. Solutes formula hydroch
matrenka [14]

Compounds which on dissolving in water gets completely dissociates into its ions are known as strong electrolytes whereas compounds which on dissolving in water gets partially dissociates into its ions are known as weak electrolytes.


Substances which gives solution on dissolving in water and do not dissociates into ions also does not conduct electric current are known as nonelectrolyte.

  • Hydrochloric acid, HCl

On adding HCl (strong acid) in water, it will completely dissociates into ions (H^{+} and Cl^{-}) and thus, it is a strong electrolyte.

  • Sodium hydroxide, NaOH

On adding NaOH (strong base) in water, it will completely dissociates into ions (Na^{+} and  OH^{-}) and thus, it is a strong electrolyte.

  • Formic acid, HCOOH

On adding HCOOH (weak acid) in water, it will partially dissociates into ions (H^{+} and  HCOO^{-}) and thus, it is a weak electrolyte.

  • Methyl amine, CH_3NH_2

On adding CH_3NH_2 (weak base) in water, it will partially dissociates into ions (CH_3NH_3^{+} and  OH^{-}) and thus, it is a weak electrolyte.

  • Potassium chloride, KCl

On adding KCl in water, it will completely dissociates into ions (K^{+} and  Cl^{-}) and thus, it is a strong electrolyte.

  • Ethanol, C_2H_5OH

On adding C_2H_5OH in water, it will not dissociates into ions  and thus, it is a nonelectrolyte.

  • Sucrose, C_{12}H_{22}O_{11}

On adding C_{12}H_{22}O_{11} in water, it will not dissociates into ions  and thus, it is a nonelectrolyte.

Is a light bulb chemical or physical change. State evidence why
irakobra [83]

Answer:

It is a chemical change.

Explanation:

When the electricity is off, the filament cools down to its original physical state. This physical process repeats every time the light is turned on and off. However, if the bulb is cracked and air is introduced, the oxygen in the air reacts with the tungsten filament which then undergoes a chemical change.
