Answer:
See Explanation
Explanation:
An ionic bond occurs due to electrostatic attraction between a positively charged ion and a negatively charged ion.
A metal and a ligand are bound by a coordinate covalent bond or a dative bond. This bond occurs due to donation of electron pairs from ligands to available orbitals on metals.
The formation of coordinate bonds is evident when neutral molecules or negative ions with non bonding electrons donate same to empty metal orbitals. This is sometimes shown by an arrow pointing from the ligands to the metal center.
For instance; tetraammine copper II ion is formed when four ammonia molecules donate a lone pair each to available vacant orbitals of the copper metal center to form [Cu(NH3)4]^2+.
Answer:
B. Molecules of Elements
Explanation:
An Element is formed of like one type of atoms, and an element is a pure substance.
Carbon dioxide, or

, is a pure covalent bond.
pure - it's non-polar, because it's a linear & symmetrical bond.
covalent - covalence is when 2 electrons are shared by a pair of atoms. in the case of carbon dioxide, it's three atoms with an oxygen atom on the right, an oxygen atom on the left, and a carbon atom smack in the middle. 2 of carbon's extra electrons are shared with the right oxygen, and 2 other extra atoms are shared with with left oxygen.
1) How old is a bone in which the Carbon-14 in it has undergone 8 half-lives?
Using the graph form the picture you count 8 times the halving of C¹⁴ and you arrive at 45600 years.
2) In the process of radiocarbon dating, the fixed period of radioactive decay used to determine age is called the half-life.
3) A certain byproduct in nuclear reactors, 210Po, decays to become 206Pb. After a time period of about 276 days, only about 25% of an original sample of 210Po remains. The remainder has decayed to 206Pb. Determine the approximate half-life of 210Po.
What the problem is telling you is that at 276 days only 25% original sample remains. If you divide the number of days by two the quantity of original sample will be multiplied by two, and you will have 138 days and 50% of original sample. This is the answer because the the half-life of a isotope is the time in which 50% of original quantity of radioactive atoms will disintegrate.
