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.

Energy in Devices. An engineer needs to design a device that transforms light energy into sound energy. Describe a design for a
N76 [4]

Answer:

built a special cavity where the electromagnetic quantum states resonate with the natural vibrations of the atoms. In doing so, one cancouple a photon-based oscillator to a mechanical oscillator, controlling the mechanical quantum states with visible light. The result is a prototype of a quantum transducer, a device that converts light energy into mechanical energy (sound energy)

Explanation:

Sound energy is created by vibrating particles of medium that propagates as a wave. So in order to convert light (electromagnetic wave) to sound wave it has to be converted into electric or magnetic signals. Then these signals can be converted into sound waves.

However, if you consider the particle nature of light. It contains momentum and after collision sets the other particles into oscillatory motion but the wavelength of these vibrations is too high to be considered as sound waves.

The electrolysis of molten NaCl is an industrial process. What does the electrolysis produce?
saveliy_v [14]

Answer:

it is D

Explanation:

NaOH and chlorine gas

Electrolysis of Aqueous NaCl Since water can be both oxidized and reduced, it competes with the dissolved Na+ and Cl– ions. Rather than producing sodium, hydrogen is produced. ... The net process is the electrolysis of an aqueous solution of NaCl into industrially useful products sodium hydroxide (NaOH) and chlorine gas.
