Which of the following is the correct chemical formula for Ca and F? CaF Ca2F CaF2
yawa3891 [41]

Answer:

CaF2

Explanation:

Calcium fluoride is a solid formed by the chemical combination of Calcium (Ca) and Fluorine (F). Two molecules of fluorine (F2) and one molecule of Calcium (Ca) are needed to form the Calcium Fluoride molecule.

An ionic bond is formed between the Calcium and Fluorine atoms i.e. electrons are transferred from calcium atoms to fluorine atoms. The calcium ion is a cation with formula; Ca2+ while fluorine is an anion with formula; F-. Hence, it takes two molecules of Fluorine ion (F-) to form a relatively stable and neutral molecule with 1 molecule of Calcium ion (Ca2+).

Salt dissolved in water is a solution, therefore _____.
saveliy_v [14]

Answer: Correct options are as follows.

  • salt is not chemically bonded to water.
  • salt and water retain their own chemical properties.

Explanation:

When salt is dissolved in water then it means that it is a physical change as salt has completely dissociated into ions but they are not chemically combined to the water molecules.

As a result, both salt and water will retain their chemical properties.

For example, NaCl when dissolved in water will dissociate as follows.

           NaCl \rightarrow Na^{+} + Cl^{-}

Only the particles of salt have evenly distributed in water.

And, when a components of a salt chemically combine with another substance then it will form a new compound.

Therefore, we can conclude that salt dissolved in water is a solution, therefore:

  • salt is not chemically bonded to water.
  • salt and water retain their own chemical properties.

Need help, please. :)
wolverine [178]

A change of one unit on the pH scale represents a change in the concentration of hydrogen ions by a factor of 10, a change in two units represents a change in the concentration of hydrogen ions by a factor of 100. Thus, small changes in pH represent large changes in the concentrations of hydrogen ions.

Which of the following is not included in John Dalton's modern theory of the atom?
Akimi4 [234]

The answer for the following question is option "C".

Option C is not included in the John Dalton's modern theory of an atom.

  • "It states atoms of different elements combine to form new compound" but not new elements

Explanation:

According to John's Dalton's modern theory of an atom:

1. All matter is composed of atoms.

2. Atoms cannot be created,destroyed or subdivided in the ordinary chemical reactions.

3. Atoms of one element differ in the properties from atoms of an another element.

(i.e.)Each and every atom of the element has its own unique properties of their own.

4. Atoms of one  element combine with the atoms of another element to <u>form new compound.</u>

5. Atoms that make up an element are identical to each other.
