Answer:

Bi2(SO4)3

Explanation:

Bismuth(iii) sulfate is an ionic compound therefore, their is transfer of electron. Ionic compound has both cations and anions. The cations is positively charged ion while the anions is negatively charged ions. The cations loses electron to become positively charged while the anions gains electron to become negatively charged.

From the compound above, Bismuth(iii) sulfate the cations will be Bismuth ion which loses 3 electrons. The anions is the sulfate ion (S04)2- with a -2 charge.

The chemical formula can be computed from the charge configuration as follows

Bi3+  and (SO4)2-

cross multiply the charges living the sign behind to get the chemical formula

Bi2(SO4)3

Note the final chemical formula, the numbers are sub scripted

I. The solubility of NaCl at 25 degrees C would be between the solubilities at 20 and 30 degrees C. A reasonable answer would be 36 grams/100 g water
ii. From the table, it’s clear that the salts are more soluble at higher temperatures, indicating that an increase in temperature increases solubility.
iii. At 50 degrees C, a saturated ammonium chloride solution will have 50.6 grams of salt per 100 g water. At 20 degrees C, the solution can hold only 37.3 grams of salt per 100 g water. Thus, 13.3 grams of salt will precipitate per 100 grams of water.

Why has the acidity of the ocean increased over the years?
aalyn [17]

Answer:

I think it's A

Explanation:

Carbon dioxide is added to the atmosphere whenever people burn fossil fuels. ... As the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere rises, the oceans absorb a lot of it. In the ocean, carbon dioxide reacts with seawater to form carbonic acid. This causes the acidity of seawater to increase.

How did knowing the number of valence electrons in one
Orlov [11]

Explanation:

Knowing the number of valence electrons in one of the alien elements helps in identifying it because the number of valence electrons can help categorize the alien element. Similar elements have the same valence electrons and knowing the category of the element can help further analyze the element.
