Answer :

Covalent compound : It is defined as the compound which is formed by the sharing of electrons between the atoms forming a compound.

The covalent compound are usually formed when two non-metals react.

Ionic compound : It is defined as the compound which is formed when electron gets transferred from one atom to another atom.

All the polyatomic ions always form an ionic compound.

Polyatomic ions : It is a charged species that composed of two or more atoms and these charged species are bonded by the covalent bond.

For the given options:

Option A:  KClO_4

This compound is formed by the combination of potassium, K^+ which is a metal and ClO_4^- ion which is a polyatomic ion. Thus, it will form an ionic compound.

Option B:  Mg(C_2H_3O_2)_2

This compound is formed by the combination of magnesium, Mg^{2+} which is a metal and C_2H_3O_2^{-} ion which is a polyatomic ion. Thus, it will form an ionic compound.

Option C:  H_2S

Hydrogen and sulfur, both are non-metals and they will form a covalent compound.

Option D:  Ag_2S

This compound is formed by the combination of silver, Ag^{+} which is a metal and sulfur, S^{2-} which is a non-metal. Thus, it will form an ionic compound.

Option E:  N_2Cl_4

Nitrogen and chlorine, both are non-metals and they will form a covalent compound.

Option F:  Co(NO_3)_2

This compound is formed by the combination of cobalt, Co^{2+} which is a metal and NO_3^{-} ion which is a polyatomic ion. Thus, it will form an ionic compound.

This puts them in the best position to gain the resources that they need to survive, most notably, the sun. The smaller plants, however, do not have this advantage, and lose out to the trees.</span>

Un átomo neutro tiene número atómico 1 y número másico 3. Indica cuántos protones, neutrones y electrones tiene.
ahrayia [7]

Answer:

El átomo podes 1 protón, 1 electrón y 2 neutrones.

Explanation:

Cada elemento químico se caracteriza por el número de protones de su núcleo, que se denomina número atómico Z. Es decir, el número atómico​ de un elemento químico es el número total de protones que tiene cada átomo de ese elemento.

Los protones poseen carga positiva y se encuentran en el núcleo, en torno al cual se mueven otras partículas con carga eléctrica negativa que son los electrones. Así, el átomo es eléctricamente neutro, ya que la carga positiva de los protones está compensada por la carga negativa de los electrones.  Entonces, en todo átomo neutro el número de protones del núcleo es igual al de electrones de sus orbitales.

En este caso, un átomo neutro tiene número atómico 1. Entonces la cantidad de protones y electrones presentes en el átomo es 1.

En el núcleo de cada elemento, además de protones, también es posible encontrar neutrones, cuyo número puede variar. La masa atómica (A) se obtiene sumando el número de protones y de neutrones de un núcleo determinado:

Número másico (A) = número de protones + número de neutrones

En este caso, el átomo neutro posee 1 protón y su número másico es 3. Entonces:

3= 1 + número de neutrones

Resolviendo:

3 - 1= número de neutrones

2= número de neutrones

Entonces,<u><em> el átomo podes 1 protón, 1 electrón y 2 neutrones.</em></u>
