<h3>ANSWER:</h3>

(C) KBr

<h3>EXPLANATION:</h3>

An ionic compound is made up of a metal and a nonmetal. K is a metal while bromine is a nonmetal. Thus K transfers its one electron to bromine in order to form an ionic compound.

An ionic compound is composed of ions, a positive ion i.e. a cation and a negative ion i.e. an anion. The bond formed between the two elements is an ionic bond which is formed by the complete transfer of electrons from an electropositive element to the electronegative element. The electropositive element loses its electron and gains a positive charge whereas the electronegative atom accepts that electron and gains a negative charge.

In the given examples:

KBr is made up of ions

Potassium being electropositive becomes positively charged K+

Bromine is electronegative and becomes negatively charged Br-

KBr = K⁺Br⁻

Tin (II) fluoride, formerly found in many kinds of toothpaste, is formed in this reaction: Sn (s) + 2HF (g) ——&gt; SnF2 (s) + H2
Readme [11.4K]

1.34 L of HF

Explanation:

We have the following chemical reaction:

Sn (s) + 2 HF (g) → SnF₂ (s) + H₂ (g)

First we calculate the number of moles of SnF₂:

number of moles = mass / molecular weight

number of moles of SnF₂ = 5 / 157 = 0.03 moles

From the chemical reaction we see that 1 mole of SnF₂ are produced from 2 moles of SnF₂. This will mean that 0.03 moles of SnF₂ are produced from 0.06 moles of HF.

Now at standard temperature and pressure (STP) we can use the following formula to calculate the volume of HF:

number of moles = volume / 22.4 (L/mole)

volume of HF = number of moles × 22.4

volume of HF = 0.06 × 22.4 = 1.34 L

Artyom0805 [142]

look good w small changes below:

Answer:  


AB is an ionic compound. The electronegativity difference between A and B is greater.  


AC is an ionic compound. The electronegativity difference between A and C is greater.  


BC is a covalent compound because the electronegativity difference between C and B is small.


everything else look good!

Why is a molecule of CO2 nonpolar even though the bonds between the carbon atom and the oxygen atoms are polar?
schepotkina [342]
The correct answer is option 1. Carbon dioxide is nonpolar because the shape of the molecule  is symmetrical. It is a linear molecule where the oxygen atoms are symmetrical on each end. CO2 molecule do not have a region of unequal sharing.
