0 is the answer for sure

An ionic compound is formed between a metal and a non metal. The metal being electropositive can form a cation by transferring the electron to the electronegative non metal that gains the electrons to form an anion. Both the elements try to get a stable octet configuration by the transfer of electrons. The number of electrons lost by metal will be equal to the number of electrons gained by the non metal. Hence, the magnitude of positive charge on the cation will be equal to the magnitude of negative charge on the anion. Therefore, the overall charge on the compound will be 0

So the correct answer is the sum of all charges in the formula for an ionic compound is 0

How do I figure the electronegativity difference of sugar C^12H^22O^11?
iVinArrow [24]
Well, a molecule of this carbohydrate would essentially have no electronegativity difference as it is a Nonpolar compound, and not that of a polar one. All electrons between the atoms would ultimately have a net dipole value of 0, indicating that the molecule is Nonpolar. Thus does not have a partial positive and or a partial negative charge.

What is the name for potassium oxide's structure? Give two properties of potassium oxide.
Anna71 [15]

Answer:

- The name for the potassium oxide's structure is ionic.

Properties:

- High melting point.

- Soluble in water.

Explanation:

- The ionic structure it is formed by a cation (atom with positive charge) and an anion (atom with negative charge). In this case, potassium is the cation and the oxigen is the anion.

- Since potassium oxide is an ionic compound, it has a high melting point, because of the strong bonds. Also, it is soluble in polar solvents, like water, because its ions generate polarity in the molecule.

The proportion of dissolved substances in seawater is usually expressed in
LiRa [457]

Answer:

The proportion of dissolved substances in seawater is usually expressed in ppm, ppb or ppt

Explanation:

The concentration of very diluted solutions should be expressed in parts per million, billion or trillion.

ppm = mass from the solute . 10⁶ / mass or volume of the solution

ppb = mass from the solute . 10⁹ / mass or volume of the solution

ppt = mass from the solute . 10¹² / mass or volume of the solution

ppm = mg/kg, μg/g, μg/mL → These are the units

ppb = ng/g

ppt = pg/g
