A student wants to determine whether an unknown solid is an ionic compound. He puts some in water and finds that it does not dis

solve. He says that this proves the solid is ionic. Which best evaluates the student's reasoning? (2 points) He is incorrect, because water can dissolve ionic solids. The test proves nothing, because water dissolves all solids. He is correct, because polar liquids cannot dissolve ionic solids. The test proves nothing, because it only shows that the solid is a compound.

Suppose a small planet is discovered that is 16 times as far from the Sun as the Earth's distance is from the Sun. Use Kepler's
mamaluj [8]

Answer:

23376 days

Explanation:

The problem can be solved using Kepler's third law of planetary motion which states that the square of the period T of a planet round the sun is directly proportional to the cube of its mean distance R from the sun.

T^2\alpha R^3\\T^2=kR^3.......................(1)

where k is a constant.

From equation (1) we can deduce that the ratio of the square of the period of a planet to the cube of its mean distance from the sun is a constant.

\frac{T^2}{R^3}=k.......................(2)

Let the orbital period of the earth be T_e and its mean distance of from the sun be R_e.

Also let the orbital period of the planet be T_p and its mean distance from the sun be R_p.

Equation (2) therefore implies the following;

\frac{T_e^2}{R_e^3}=\frac{T_p^2}{R_p^3}....................(3)

We make the period of the planet T_p the subject of formula as follows;

T_p^2=\frac{T_e^2R_p^3}{R_e^3}\\T_p=\sqrt{\frac{T_e^2R_p^3}{R_e^3}\\}................(4)

But recall that from the problem stated, the mean distance of the planet from the sun is 16 times that of the earth, so therefore

R_p=16R_e...............(5)

Substituting equation (5) into (4), we obtain the following;

T_p=\sqrt{\frac{T_e^2(16R_e)^3}{(R_e^3}\\}\\T_p=\sqrt{\frac{T_e^24096R_e^3}{R_e^3}\\}

R_e^3 cancels out and we are left with the following;

T_p=\sqrt{4096T_e^2}\\T_p=64T_e..............(6)

Recall that the orbital period of the earth is about 365.25 days, hence;

T_p=64*365.25\\T_p=23376days

Beryllium has a charge of 2, and bromine has a charge of –1. which is the best name for the ionic bond that forms between them?
Otrada [13]

The best name for the ionic bond that forms between them is Beryllium Bromide.

We have been provided with data,

Beryllium charge, q = 2

Bromine charge, q = -1

As we know the valance electron of Be is +2  and the valance electron of bromine is -1. Since one is metallic and the other is non-metallic.

Now, when they combine they exchange valance electron, and bromine change into bromide so they form Beryllium Bromide.

So, the best name for the ionic bond that forms between them is Beryllium Bromide.

A dart with mass md is launched toward a block of mass mb that is suspended from a string of length L. The dart is moving horizo
Yuki888 [10]

Answer:

A) Impulse is the same for both the objects

B) The higher is the speed, the greater will be the height.

Explanation:

Part a)

The time of interaction of the two bodies i.e the hanging mass and the stick is same. Thus, force caused by dart on the block = force caused by block on the dart. Hence, impulse is the same for both the objects.  

Part B

The energy will be conserved in the entire reaction process

Hence, Kinetic energy = potential energy

0.5Mv^2 = gh(md+mb)

H is directly proportional to the square of speed.  

Hence, the higher is the speed, the greater will be the height.

Why is salt water a better conductor of electricity than river water?
Tamiku [17]

Answer: The conductivity of water depends on the concentration of dissolved ions in solution. ... This is because the Sodium Chloride salt dissociates into ions. Hence sea water is about a million times more conductive than fresh water.
