Heres the best help i can give you There is a couple different ways to determine if a bond is ionic or covalent. By definition, an ionic bond is between a metal and a nonmetal, and a covalent bond is between 2 nonmetals. So you usually just look at the periodic table and determine whether your compound is made of a metal/nonmetal or is just 2 nonmetals
Half life is the time taken for a radioactive isotope to decay by half its original mass. In this case the half life of carbon-14 is 5.730 years.
Using the formula;
New mass = original mass × (1/2)^n; where n is the number of half lives (in this case n=1 )
New mass = 2 g × (1/2)^1
= 1 g
Therefore; the mass of carbon-14 that remains will be 1 g
Answer:
Positive charges are eliminated by creating lithium vacancies, and for every Ca2+ ion added, a single lithium vacancy is formed.
Explanation:
The addition of calcium oxide as an impurity to lithium oxide creates an interstices due to the replacement of the Lithium ion by calcium ion. The creation of interstices is as a result of the replacement of the positive ions (Lithium by calcium). To make the reaction neutral, these replacements must occur when the interstices are formed
