Answer: Option (C) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

When a curvy arrow is placed on the reactants then it shows that an electron is being transferred from one atom to another.

And, it is known that when donation or transfer of an electron occurs from one atom to another then it results in the formation of an ionic bond and the compound formed is known as ionic compound.

For example, sodium when chemically combines with chlorine atom then one valence electron is donated by sodium atom to the chlorine atom. This forms the ionic compound NaCl.

Thus, we can conclude that in the reactants there is a curvy arrow,  the direction of the arrow indicate that the cations give away an electron and the anions accept electrons.

How much heat in joules is gained when a 34.5 g bar of gold is heated from 26.4°C to 75.3°C ?specific heat of gold on 0.129 J/gr
Sati [7]

Answer:

Q = 217.63J

Explanation:

Data;

Mass = 34.5g

T1 = 26.4°C

T2 = 75.3°C

c = 0.129J/g°C

Energy (Q) = mc(T2 - T1)

Q = 34.5 * 0.129 *(75.3 - 26.4)

Q = 4.4505 * 48.9

Q = 217.629J

Q = 217.63J

The heat gained was 217.63J

Why is potassium sulfate K2SO4, but strontium sulfate SrSO4?
Oksi-84 [34.3K]
The sulphate ion has a charge of 2-, and potassium has a charge of 1+. To fully neutralise the charge on a sulphate ion, you need two potassium ions. 

However, strontium has a charge of 2+. To neutralise the sulphate ion's 2- charge, one strontium ion is enough, so only one bonds to the sulphate.
