Answer : The elements form an ionic bond will be, (C) Ca and Br

Explanation:

Ionic bond : It is defined as the bond that is formed by complete transfer of electrons from one atom to another atom.

That means, the atom which looses the electron is known as electropositive atom and the atom which gains the electron is known as electronegative atom.

The ionic bond is usually formed between a metal and a non-metal.

Covalent bond : It is defined as the bond which is formed when sharing of electrons takes place between the atoms.

This is usually formed between two non-metals.

(a) Chlorine  and fluorine

In this pair, fluorine is a non-metal and chlorine is also non-metal. So, chlorine and fluorine will form a covalent bond.

(b) Chlorine  and chlorine

In this pair, chlorine  is a non-metal. So, chlorine  and chlorine will form a covalent bond.

(c) Calcium and bromine

In this pair, calcium is a metal and bromine is a non-metal. So, calcium and bromine will form an ionic bond.

(d) Calcium and magnesium

In this pair, calcium and magnesium are metals. So, no bond form between calcium and magnesium.

Hence, the elements form an ionic bond will be, (C) Ca and Br

Do the chemical bonds between atoms change during cellular respiration?
borishaifa [10]
During cellular respiration, the carbon and hydrogen atoms change partners and bond with oxygen atoms instead. The carbon-hydrogen bonds are replaced by carbon-oxygen and hydrogen-oxygen bonds. As the electrons of these bonds "fall" toward oxygen, energy is released.

To minimize the sharp ph shift that occurs when a strong acid is added to a solution
adell [148]
To minimize the sharp pH shift that occurs when a strong acid is added to a solution, IT IS PRACTICAL TO ADD A WEAK BASE.
When a strong acid is added to a solution, it usually brings about a sharp change in the pH of the concerned solution. To avoid this, one can add a  weak base to the solution first. The weak base will serves as a buffer for the strong acid and prevents the solution from experiencing sharp pH variations.

Boron carbonate decomposes into boron oxide and carbon dioxide. How many moles of CO2
Paul [167]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

15 moles

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

The decomposition of boron carbonate is given by the equation;

B₂(CO₃)₃(s) → B₂O₃(s) + 3CO₂(g)

Moles of boron carbonate decomposed is 5.0 mol

To find the moles of CO₂ produced we are going to use the mole ratio.

Mole ratio of B₂(CO₃)₃ to CO₂ is 1 : 3

Therefore;

Moles of CO₂ = Moles of B₂(CO₃)₃ × 3

                      = 15 mol

Therefore, 15 moles of CO₂ will be produced
