In order to determine whether a bond is ionic or covalent, you need to know whether or not it is completely composed of nonmetal atoms or both metal and nonmetal ions.

Barium is a metal and Oxygen is a nonmetal, therefore there is no possible way they could bond unless they were attracted to opposite charges. Specifically, only if Barium becomes a cation and Oxygen becomes an anion then could they bond.

Now cation and anion both have the word "ion" in them, so therefore it must be an ionic bond.

Now we need to know the definition of a bond. A bond is formed when two elements are joined together by sharing their valence electrons.

Therefore, your answer should be:

Ionic, because valence electrons are shared.

Magnesium hydroxide (Mg(OH)2): g/mol
Eva8 [605]

To determine the molar mass, you need to get the atomic mass of the molecule. To do this, check the periodic table for the atomic mass or average atomic weight of each element.

Mg = 24.305 x 1 = 24.305 amu

O = 15.9994 x 2 =31.9988 amu

H = 1.0079 x 2 = 2.0158 amu

 

Then, add all the components to get the atomic mass of the molecule.

24.305 amu + 31.9988 amu + 2.0158 amu = 58.3196 amu


The atomic mass is just equivalent to its molar mass.

So, the molar mass of Magnesium hydroxide (Mg(OH)2) is 58.3196 g/mol.

How do cells reproduce? ∵∵∵∵∵∵∵∵∵∵∵∵∵∵∵∵∵∵
lora16 [44]

Answer:

Cells divide to reproduce. There are two primary methods used, one for somatic cells, which compose the organism’s body, and one for reproductive cells, or gametes.

Scientists call the process of somatic cell division mitosis. Mitosis has six distinct steps in which the cell organizes and copies the DNA in the nucleus. Once copied, each new cell has its own copy of the DNA. The six steps of mitosis are prophase, prometaphase, metaphase, anaphase, telophase and cytokinesis. Some authorities consider the non-dividing portion of the cell’s lifecycle, known as interphase, to be one of seven steps involved in mitosis; however, interphase cells are not actively dividing.

Sex cells, such as sperm or eggs, must divide differently. Sex cells only possess one-half of the DNA that makes up a new animal. That way, when they combine, the resulting organism gets half of its DNA from its mother and half from its father. Because sex cells only want half of the DNA in each cell, they go through a different division process called meiosis. In meiosis, the cells split a second time, which yields four daughter cells rather than two as with mitosis; however, this provides each daughter cell with 23 chromosomes in contrast to the 46 chromosomes in somatic cells.

how many kilograms of a 35% m/m sodium chlorate solution is needed to react completely with 0.29 l of a 22% m/v aluminum nitrate
Stolb23 [73]

Answer:- 0.273 kg

Solution:- A double replacement reaction takes place. The balanced equation is:

3NaClO_3+Al(NO_3)_3\rightarrow 3NaNO_3+Al(ClO_3)_3

We have 0.29 L of 22% m/v aluminum nitrate solution. m/s stands for mass by volume. 22% m/v aluminium nitrate solution means 22 g of it are present in 100 mL solution. With this information, we can calculate the grams of aluminum nitrate present in 0.29 L.

0.29L(\frac{1000mL}{1L})(\frac{22g}{100mL})

= 63.8 g aluminum nitrate

From balanced equation, there is 1:3 mol ratio between aluminum nitrate and sodium chlorate. We will convert grams of aluminum nitrate to moles and then on multiplying it by mol ratio we get the moles of sodium chlorate that could further be converted to grams.

We need molar masses for the calculations, Molar mass of sodium chlorate is 106.44 gram per mole and molar mass of aluminum nitrate is 212.99 gram per mole.

63.8gAl(NO_3)_3(\frac{1mol}{212.99g})(\frac{3molNaClO_3}{1molAl(NO_3)_3})(\frac{106.44g}{1mol})

= 95.7gNaClO_3

sodium chlorate solution is 35% m/m. This means 35 g of sodium chlorate are present in 100 g solution. From here, we can calculate the mass of the solution that will contain 95.7 g of sodium chlorate  and then the grams are converted to kg.

95.7gNaClO_3(\frac{100gSolution}{35gNaClO_3})(\frac{1kg}{1000g})

= 0.273 kg

So, 0.273 kg of 35% m/m sodium chlorate solution are required.
