An ionic bond, by definition, is a bond formed by a metal and a nonmetal.

Potassium is an alkali earth metal, and oxygen is a nonmetal.

Therefore, they form an ionic bond.

Enjoy your evening :)

Answer: ionic

Explanation: Ionic bond is formed by the complete transfer of electrons from a metal to a non metal.

In potassium hydroxide (KOH) there is complete transfer of electrons from potassium to hydroxide.

K^++OH^-\rightarrow KOH

Covalent bond is formed by sharing of electrons. Metallic bond is formed in metals.

: In heavy rushIn heavy rush-hour traffic you drive in a straight line at 12 m/s for 1.5 minutes, then you have to stop for 3.5
zhuklara [117]
Guessing you want the average speed. We can multiple each speed by the time we spent going that speed, and them all together and then divide by the total time we spent in traffic to get the average speed. We spent a total of 7.5 minutes in traffic, so average speed  = (12*1.5+0*3.5+15*2.5)/7.5 = 7.4 m/s

How do the positions of the hot and cold water affect the speed of convection
Aleks [24]

Convection is the process in which heat is transferred by movement of a heated fluid such as air or water. Natural convection results from the tendency of most fluids to expand when heated so it becomes less dense and rise above.  

For example- In a pot of water on a stove the liquid t bottom is heated by conduction. The hot water has lower density and it rises above pushing the cold water downwards so it gets heated.

Two masses, each weighing 1.0 × 103 kilograms and moving with the same speed of 12.5 meters/second, are approaching each other.
pav-90 [236]

Answer:

A. 1.6 × 105 joules

Explanation:

As per the question, the data given in the question is as follows

Number of masses = 2

Each weightage = 1.0 \times 2.3

Speed = 12.5 meters/ second

Based on the above information, the approximate kinetic energy after the collision is

A perfectly elastic collision is described as one where the collision does not cause any loss of kinetic energy. 

So we sum the kinetic energy of each kind of system which is given below:

Kinetic energy is

= 0.5(1.0 \times 10^3) (12.5)^2 + 0.5 (1.0 \times 10^3) (12.5 )^2

= 156250 J

= 1.6 \times 10^5 J
