Potassium chloride dissolved in pure water is an
postnew [5]

Answer:

A) An ionic compound dissolved in a polar solvent

Explanation:

Potassium Chloride's chemical formula is KCl. Most ionic compounds are formed between a nonmetal and a metal. In this case, potassium is acting as the metal and chloride is the nonmetal. Water is a polar solvent due to the electronegativity of the oxygen in the molecule creating a partial negative pole, leaving the hydrogen atoms partially positive. Hence, A is your best answer.

If I helped, a brainliest would be greatly appreciated!

Zn + 2HCI --> ZnCl2 + H2
Elena-2011 [213]
Moles= mass\ relative formula mass(Ar)
moles of zinc= 7.9/30= 0.263
so we have 0.263 moles of zinc, and you need twice the amount of chlorine so therefore 0.526moles of chlorine= 0.526x 17=8.942g of chlorine
i cba to work the rest out but the most reasonable answer is 0.24 mol however if you need to use working outs, use the formula i provided earlier

What type of compound is fe3n2
Shkiper50 [21]

Fe3N2, also known as Iron (II) nitride, is an ionic compound.


Ionic compounds are compounds that consists of metals and non-metals bonded with ionic bonds. The metal ion gives up electron(s) to the non-metals.


Since iron is a metal and nitrogen is an non-metal, the bond they would form would be an ionic bond. Iron gives up 2 electrons to form iron(II) ion, while nitrogen gains 3 electrons to form nitride ion. Since one iron cannot let a nitrogen gain 3 electrons, so in the compound, there would be 3 iron (ii) ions that has given up 6 electrons in total while 2 nitride ions have gained 6 electrons in total.

Explain transmethylation reaction of amino acids.
tester [92]

Answer:Transamination, a chemical reaction that transfers an amino group to a ketoacid to form new amino acids. This pathway is responsible for the deamination of most amino acids. This is one of the major degradation pathways which convert essential amino acids to non-essential amino acids (amino acids that can be synthesized de novo by the organism).
