Potassium oxide: K₂O.
There's no need for prefixes since K₂O is an ionic compound.
<h3>Explanation</h3>
Find the two elements on a periodic table:
- Potassium- K- on the left end of period four.
- Oxygen- O- near the right end of periodic two.
Elements on the bottom-left corner of the periodic table are metals. Those on the top-right corner are nonmetals.
- Potassium is a metal,
- Oxygen is a nonmetal.
A metal and a nonmetal combine to form an ionic compound. Potassium oxide is likely to be an ionic compound. It contains two types of ions:
- Potassium ions: Potassium is group 1 of the periodic table. It is an alkaline metal. Like other alkaline metals such as sodium Na, potassium K tends to lose one electron and form ions of charge +1 in compounds. The ion would be K⁺.
- Oxide ions from oxygen: Oxygen is the second most electronegative element on the periodic table. It tends to gain two electrons and form the oxide ion
when it combines with metals.
The two types of ions carry opposite charges. They shall pair up at a certain ratio such that they balance the charge on each other. The charge on each ion is twice that on a 
ion. Each would pair up with two . Hence the subscript in the formula: 
.
There are two classes of compounds:
- Covalent compounds, which need prefixes, and
- Ionic compounds, which need no prefix.
Prefixes are needed only in covalent compounds. For instance in the covalent compound carbon dioxide 
, the prefix di- indicates that there are two oxygen atoms in the formula . However, there's no need for prefix in ionic compounds such as 
.
The answer is Electrons move between objects. The reason this is known is that the acts of friction and conduction (from the little picture he could not put in) involves contact to be known as friction and conduction. Without contact the electrons could not move between objects. I also got this question right on the test. That's how I know this is right. I hope this helps. ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
Answer:
18 km
Explanation:
To know the distance, you need to be clear in the concept of distance.
According to the physics, the distance is a measurement that refers to the fact of how much an object has move from one point to another.
In this case, we have a person named Steve and he's walking through several points.
To calculate the distance that he moved, you just need to sum all the values of distance. In this case, it's not neccesary to do calculations regarding the components of the x or y axis, because we are not talking about displacement, where it actually counts. But in this case, we just need all the covered distance that Steven walked since the beggining.
So, no more talk, let's do calculations:
D = 5 + 2 + 9 + 2 = 18 km
So the final answer would be:
<h2>
Distance = 18 km</h2>

Molecules must collide in order to react.
In order to effectively initiate a reaction, collisions must be sufficiently energetic (kinetic energy) to break chemical bonds; this energy is known as the activation energy.
As the temperature rises, molecules move faster and collide more vigorously, greatly increasing the likelihood of bond breakage upon collision.
Collision theory explains why different reactions occur at different rates, and suggests ways to change the rate of a reaction. Collision theory states that for a chemical reaction to occur, the reacting particles must collide with one another. The rate of the reaction depends on the frequency of collisions. The theory also tells us that reacting particles often collide without reacting. For collisions to be successful, reacting particles must (1) collide with (2) sufficient energy, and (3) with the proper orientation.
