<u>Answer:</u> The name of CaSO_4 is calcium sulfate.

<u>Explanation:</u>

An ionic compound is defined as the compound which is formed when electron gets transferred from one atom to another atom. These are usually formed when a metal reacts with a non-metal or a metal reacts with a polyatomic ion or a reaction between two polyatomic ions takes place.

CaSO_4 is an ionic compound because calcium element is a metal and sulfate ion is a polyatomic ion. The bond formed between a metal and a non-metal is always ionic in nature.

The nomenclature of ionic compounds is given by:

  • Positive ion is written first.
  • The negative ion is written next and a suffix is added at the end of the negative ion. The suffix written is '-ide'.
  • In case of polyatomic ions, the name of the ion is written as such. <u>For Example:</u> OH^- is named as hydroxide, SO_4^{2-} is named as sulfate and so on..

Hence, the name of CaSO_4 is calcium sulfate.

If a 0.610 m aqueous solution freezes at –3.00 °c, what is the van\'t hoff factor, i, of the solute? kf values can be found here
LiRa [457]
ΔT = 3°C = 3 K.
Kf(H₂O) = 1,853 K<span>·kg/mol.
</span><span>b = 0,610 m = 0,610 mol/kg.
b = n </span>÷ m(H₂O).
ΔT = Kf · b · i.
i = ΔT / Kf · b.
i = 3 K / 1,853 K·kg/mol · 0,610 mol/kg.

Why does metal need to be extracted from an ore before it can be used?
Hunter-Best [27]
Metal ore has other elements in it as well. Also sediment and stone might cover the ore. We don't want to have a phone with sediment on it do we? thus these few reasons are why.

What is the difference between a renewable and nonrenewable resource
ioda

Answer:

Answer in explanation

Explanation:

A renewable source of energy is an energy source that cannot be depleted. It is an energy source with constant abundance and hence it is always in abundance. What we are saying is that they are energy sources that cannot be used up. Although it might sometimes be that it is unavailable at some instances, this does not take away the fact that it is abundant and cannot be depleted, although the strength at different times may vary. Example of renewable energy sources include solar energy, wind energy, hydroelectric power source etc. These sources are never depleted and are in abundance.

Non renewable source of energy are those sources of energy that can be depleted. A good example of this can be seen in fossil fuels. Fossil fuels are usually burned to produce energy. They are used up in the process and it will require an additional amount of fossil fuel to be restocked for the energy to be continually supplied.
