An ionic compound is made up of a metal and a nonmetal. This eliminates answer choice A, C, and D because both of the elements listed are nonmetal.

Your correct answer is B) One atom of calcium and two atoms of chlorine. This is because calcium is a metal, and chlorine is a nonmetal.

Answer : The correct option is, (B) One atom of calcium and two atoms of chlorine.

Explanation :

Ionic compound : It is a compound in which the atoms are bonded through the ionic bond.  The ionic bonds are formed between the one metal and one non-metal. It is formed by the complete transfer of electrons.

Covalent compound : It is a compound in which the atoms are covalently bonded. The covalent bonds are formed between two non-metals.  The covalent bonds are formed by the equal sharing of the electrons.

From the given options, only option (B) pair of atoms will form an ionic compound because calcium is a metal and chlorine is a non-metal. While the other options will not form an ionic compound because the two atoms are non-metals.

Hence, the correct option is, (B) One atom of calcium and two atoms of chlorine.

Listed below are possible solutes. In your possession is a beaker with 500 milliliters of water. You want to make an aqueous sol
slavikrds [6]

Answer: I & III

Explanation:  Solutes are the substances which are minimum in quantity and which is required to dissolve in the solvent (which is larger in quantity) in order to make a solution.

In the asked question, it is given that the water is the solvent and from the given solutes we have to pick which would make an aqueous solution with the highest concentration of solute possible.

Thus the most appropriate answers could be the Ammonia and hexanol which can make the highest possible concentration of solute as ammonia is the gas which is highly soluble in water and hexanol is an alcohol which has an affinity for water. Thus the correct option is I & III
