"hexa-" and it is in front of the fluoride so that means we have 6 fluorines
Answer:xenon hexafluoride →

Parantheses mean present of a subgroup or a group of polyatomic ions in a chemical reaction.
<u>Explanation:</u>
In a chemical reaction, sometimes, a compound may be composed of group of polyatomic ions with other ions. Some of the polyatomic ions are sulfate, carbonate, nitrate, hydroxide, bicarbonate, ammonia etc.
So these polyatomic ions are formed by combining two or more elements. Thus, if the number of polyatomic ions in a compound is more than one, then we use parathesis and write those polyatomic ions in it and write the number of polyatomic ions present in the compound as subscript of the parathesis.
For example, Fe₂(SO₄)₃
So here SO₄ is a polyatomic ion and in the compound 3 atoms of SO₄ is required to neutralize the compound and thus paranthesis is used. Thus, parantheses mean present of a subgroup or a group of polyatomic ions in a chemical reaction.
Answer:
Types of chemical weathering
1. Hydrolysis
2. Oxidation
3. Carbonation
4. Acid rain
5. Acids produced by lichens
Explanation:
Chemical weathering occurs when rocks undergo chemical reactions to form new minerals.
Hydrolysis : is when water dissolves minerals present in rocks forming new compounds.
Oxidation : is when oxygen reacts with rocks eg. rust formation
Carbonation : it uses an acid known as carbonic acid, it is important in the formation of many caves and sinkholes.
