Covalent bonds exist between two nonmetal elements while ionic bonds exist between a metal and a nonmetal element. In this case, oxygen is a nonmetal and in order to create an ionic bond, the other substance should be a metal. The answer therefore to this problem is calcium.

\boxed{\left( 1 \right){\text{ calcium}}} reacts with oxygen to form ionic bonds.

Further Explanation:

Covalent bonds are the types of bonds that involve the sharing of electrons between the bonded atoms. This bond is usually formed between two or more non-metals.

Ionic bonds are the chemical bonds that involve the transference of electrons from one atom to another. These bonds are generally formed between metals and non-metals. In these types of bonds, ions are formed by the atoms. Cations are formed by the loss of electrons and anions result from the gain of electrons.

Oxygen is a non-metal. In order to form an ionic bond with oxygen, the other element has to be a metal.

Hydrogen, chlorine, and nitrogen are non-metals so these can form covalent bonds with oxygen. But calcium is a metal and it forms ionic bonds with oxygen. Calcium loses two electrons to form {\text{C}}{{\text{a}}^{2 + }} and these electrons are gained by oxygen, resulting in the formation of {{\text{O}}^{2 - }}. The attraction between {\text{C}}{{\text{a}}^{2 + }} and {{\text{O}}^{2 - }} is an ionic bond and the resulting compound is CaO (For structure, refer to the attached image).

Which option explains how some parts of a plant can be white?
just olya [345]

Some parts of a plant can be white because they do not contain chlorophyll.

Chlorophyll is a term to refer to a characteristic compound of most plants that has the function of:

  • Bring the green color to vegetables
  • Take charge of the photosynthesis process.

Some plants do not have as much chlorophyll in their systems. However, this does not affect their reproduction and growth because they have developed other feeding methods through their roots.

These plants that contain low amounts of chlorophyll have pale and white colorations because chlorophyll is what gives the plants their intense green color.

Note: This question is incomplete because options are missing. Nevertheless, I can answer it based on my prior knowledge.

In the name, iron(III) oxide, the (III) represents
Veronika [31]
<h2>In the name, iron(III) oxide, the (III) represents: D) the electrical charge of iron</h2><h2>Explanation:</h2>

To attain stability the chemical bond is formed .

Chemical bond

It is a kind of linkage that binds one atom with the other .

The atoms do so in order to attain stable noble gas configuration .

To form chemical bond they either:

Loose electrons : when atoms loose electrons they acquire positive charge which is equal to the number of electrons lost .

Gain electrons: After gaining electrons they acquire negative charge which is equal to the number of electrons gained by an atom.

share electrons : With sharing no charges are develop .

<em>In the above asked question when iron combines with oxygen it forms iron oxide : where iron looses 3 electrons and oxygen gains 2 electrons .That is the reason ,III here represents  the electrical charge of iron</em>

L and D forms of a molecule are what kind of isomers?
kotegsom [21]

Answer:

enantiomers

Explanation:

L and D stand for levorotatory and dextrorotatory respectively. A levorotatory molecule will rotate the plane of plane polarised light left and a dextrorotatory molecule will rotate the plane of plane polarised light right.  L and D molecules are non superimposable mirror image of each other. Therefore they are also known as enantiomers.
