Answer: Option (a) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Ionic salts are defined as the salts which tend to contain ionic bonds as there occurs transfer of electrons between its combining atoms.

So, when an ionic salt melts or it is dissolved in water then it will dissociate into its respective ions and as electricity is the flow of electrons or ions. Hence, this salt is then able to conduct electricity.

As covalent compounds are insoluble in water so, they do no dissociate into ions. Hence, they do not conduct electricity.

Similarly, metallic and network solids do not dissociate into ions either when melted or dissolved in water. Therefore, they also do not conduct electricity.

Thus, we can conclude that when a white crystalline salt conducts electricity when it is melted and when it dissolves in water then this bond is of ionic type.

How do I solve the following word problem: The half-life of Phosphorus - 32 is 14.3 days. It is used to study a plant's use of f
BaLLatris [955]

Half life is the time that it takes for half of the original value of some amount of a radioactive element to decay.

We have the following equation representing the half-life decay:

A=A_o\times2^{(-\frac{t}{t_{half}})_{}_{}}

A is the resulting amount after t time

Ao is the initial amount = 50 mg

t= Elapsed time

t half is the half-life of the substance = 14.3 days

We replace the know values into the equation to have an exponential decay function for a 50mg sample

A=\text{ 50 }\times2^{\frac{-t}{14.3}}

That would be the answer for a)

To know the P-32 remaining after 84 days we have to replace this value in the equation:

\begin{gathered} A=\text{ 50 }\times2^{\frac{-84}{14.3}} \\ A=0.85\text{ mg} \end{gathered}

So, after 84 days the P-32 remaining will be 0.85 mg

how do the properties of compounds compare to the properties of the elements from which they are composed
Crank
<span>The elements that form the compound don't compare because it doesn't matter about the elements when they are combined. The elements that formed it together is completely different than the outcome compound. </span>

How many moles of CO2 must dissolve in excess water to produce 12 moles of<br><br> H2CO3?
vodka [1.7K]

Answer:

12 moles of CO₂.

Explanation:

We'll begin by writing the balanced equation for the reaction. This is illustrated below:

CO₂ + H₂O —> H₂CO₃

From the balanced equation above,

1 mole of CO₂ dissolves in water to produce 1 mole of H₂CO₃.

Finally, we shall determine the number of moles of CO₂ that will dissolve in water to produce 12 moles of H₂CO₃. This can be obtained as follow:

From the balanced equation above,

1 mole of CO₂ dissolves in water to produce 1 mole of H₂CO₃.

Therefore, 12 moles of CO₂ will also dissolve in water to produce 12 moles of H₂CO₃.

Thus, 12 moles of CO₂ is required.
