What elements do water, carbon dioxide, and rust have in common

Chemistry
1 answer:
Elina [12.6K]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

                     The common element is <u>Oxygen</u>.

Explanation:

                    In order to find out the common elements between water, rust and carbon dioxide we will first write down the chemical formulas of these compounds.

                (i) <u>Water</u>  =  H₂O

                                           Each water molecule is made up of two atoms of hydrogen and one atom of oxygen.

                (ii) <u>Carbon Dioxide</u>  =  CO₂

                                            Carbon dioxide is made up of one atom of carbon and two atoms of oxygen.

                (iii) <u>Rust </u> =  Fe₂O₃

                                             Rust is formed when Fe (Iron) is oxidized. Hence, it is made up of two iron atoms and three oxygen atoms.

Conclusion:

                  Hence, Oxygen is the only common element found in all these three compounds.

A bond formed when atoms transfer elentron is a bond
lubasha [3.4K]
Ionic bonds involve a cation and an anion. The bond is formed when an atom, typically a metal, loses an electron or electrons, and becomes a positive ion, or cation. Another atom, typically a non-metal, is able to acquire the electron(s) to become a negative ion, or anion.

One example of an ionic bond is the formation of sodium fluoride, NaF, from a sodium atom and a fluorine atom. In this reaction, the sodium atom loses its single valence electron to the fluorine atom, which has just enough space to accept it. The ions produced are oppositely charged and are attracted to one another due to electrostatic forces.
