Answer:

Carbonates (CO3-2), phosphates (PO4-3) and sulfides (S-2) are insoluble.

The exceptions are the alkali metals and the ammonium ion.

OH−,S−2,CO3S−2, and PO−34 O H − , S − 2 , C O 3 S − 2 , a n d P O 4 − 3 will generally form precipitates with the exceptions being when the cations are: Li+,Na+,K+.

Which statememt describes gravity? Select three options

Fofino [41]

Gravity is a force which tries to pull two objects toward each other. Anything which has mass also has a gravitational pull. The more massive an object is, the stronger its gravitational pull is. Earth's gravity is what keeps you on the ground and what causes objects to fall.

Choose a likely identity for X, Y, and Z in these structures. A central X atom is bonded to two chlorine atoms through single bo

natka813 [3]

Complete Question

The complete question is shown on the first uploaded image

Answer:

X is Be

Y is B

Z is O

Explanation:

In order to understand the solution, we need to that the an element form a bond based on

1 The number of valence electron available in its atom

2 The number of electron it require to attains its stable state i.e its Octet state

The number of valence electron for each of the option are

F = 7, N = 5 , O = 6 , C = 4 , B = 3 , Be = 2

Considering the first element

We see that X is donating two valence electron in its atom and it is donating it to 2 Cl as Cl only requires a single electron to achieve its stable state

Now looking option we can see that Be has two valence electron in it atom and in order for it to attain its stable state it needs to release the electron so the correct option for this question is Be

Considering the second element

We see that Y is donating three valence electron in its atom and it is donating it to 3 Cl as Cl only requires a single electron to achieve its stable state

Now looking option we can see that B has three valence electron in it atom and in order for it to attain its stable state it needs to release the valence electron so the correct option for this question is B

Considering the second element

We see that Z is donating two valence electron in its atom and it is donating it to 2 Cl as Cl only requires a single electron to achieve its stable state, also Z has 2 lone-pair valence electron

Now looking at the option we can see that O has 6 valence electron so if it donates 2 valence electron it will still be left with 4 - pair of electron

Therefore the correct option to this question is O

The expected o-c-h angle in this molecule is degrees. the expected hybridization at the central carbon is

WINSTONCH [101]

Each neutral carbon atom contains four valence electrons and may form up to four electron domains. Possible hybridizations include

$sp^{3}$ , four electron domains, as in ethane $\text{C}_2\text{H}_6$
$sp^{2}$ , three electron domains, as in ethene $\text{C}_2\text{H}_4$
$sp$ , two electron domains, as in ethyne $\text{C}_2\text{H}_2$

Molecules of each of the three hybridization demonstrate spatial configurations that would maximizes the separation between the electron domains.

Carbon atoms with a $sp^{3}$ hybridization would demonstrate a tetrahedral configuration with a bond angle of approximately $109.5\textdegree{}$
Carbon atoms with a $sp^{2}$ hybridization would demonstrate a triangular planar configuration with a bond angle of $120\textdegree{}$
Carbon atoms with a $sp$ hybridization would demonstrate a linear configuration with a bond angle of $180\textdegree{}$

Bond angles are characteristic of the spatial configuration of electron domains and identifies the hybridization of the central carbon atom.

Note that each hydrogen atom contains only one valence electron and would form only single bonds. It takes two valence electrons for oxygen atoms to achieve an octet such that each oxygen form only two bonds at a single time. Therefore given the fact that the carbon is bonded to both hydrogen and oxygen, only the following hybridizations are possible

$sp^{3}$ in which the oxygen atom forms a carbon-oxygen double bond with the central carbon atom;
$sp^{2}$ in which the oxygen atom forms a single bond with the central carbon atom and with a second atom.

The _______ of a wave is a measure of the amount of energy it carries

Bumek [7]

The word that best fits is frequency. The sentence is The frequency of a wave is a measure of the amount of energy it carries. There is a direct relationship between frequency and energy of a wave. The constant of proportionality is h, Planck's constant. So, Energy = h * frequency. So, the answer is frequency.<span> Although you should know that wavelength is related to frequency and so it is also a measure of the amount of energy and it should also be other valid answer.</span>
