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.

A chemist takes 50-gram sample of sulfur powder that has a melting point of 115.2 °C. What is the melting point of a 100-gram sa
Viktor [21]

Answer:

115.2 °C since melting point is an intensive property  

Step-by-step explanation:

The melting point of a substance does not depend on how much you have.

For example, the melting point of water is 0 °C, whether it is an ice cube from the refrigerator or in the frozen pond outside.

The freezing point of a substance is an <em>intensive property</em>.

Thus, the melting point of 100 g of sulfur is 115.2 °C because melting point in an intensive property.

Hydrogen has three naturally occurring isotopes which figure into the average atomic mass found on the periodic table (1.00974):
Art [367]
The number following the name of the element is the number of subatomic particles inside the nucleus of the atom. This means that it is the mass number of the isotope. The average atomic mass of the element is the sum of the products of the percentage abundance and mass number of the naturally occurring isotopes. 

Since, the average atomic mass of the hydrogen is nearest to 1 then, the most abundant isotope should be hydrogen-1.

The process which has taken place is called CRYSTALLIZATION.
Generally, crystallization is the process by which solid crystals are precipitated from solution. Crystallization can also occur when a crystal melt or when a crystal get deposited directly from a  gas, although these cases are rarer compare to crystals forming from solutions.
