primarily ionic include = sodium iodide( NaI) , calcium chloride ( CaCl2)

primarily covalent include - Ammonia (NH3) , Methane ( CH4) and

Glucose (C6H12O6)

Explanation

ionic bond is formed when there is complete transfer of electron between atoms. It occur between metal which donate electrons and a non metal which accept electrons.

for example in formation of CaCl2, ca donate 2 electron to 2 Cl atom, while 2 Cl atom accept the 2 electrons to form ionic bond.

Covalent bond is formed when two or more non metal form bond by sharing electrons pairs.

For example in NH3 3 pairs of electron are shared. to form covalent bond.

Answer: 1. AgF + CaCl2 = AgCl + CaF2

2. C2H4 +O2 = CO2 +H2O

3. K2S = K+S

4. O2 + Mg = MgO

5. Mg + AlBr3 = MgBr2 + Al

6.C2H6O + O2= CO2 + H2O

7.Li2SO4 + MgCl2= Li2SO4 + MgCl2

8.HCl + Zn= H2 + ZnCl2

Explanation:

Balance the equation

Write down your given equation.

Write down the number of atoms per each element that you have on each side of the equation.

Always leave hydrogen and oxygen for last.

If you have more than one element left to balance:

Add a coefficient to the single carbon atom on the right of the equation to balance it with the 3 carbon atoms on the left of the equation.

Balance the hydrogen atoms next.

Balance the oxygen atoms.

What would be the composition and ph of an ideal buffer prepared from lactic acid (ch3chohco2h), where the hydrogen atom highlig

Mashutka [201]

Answer:

$P_H =2.86$

$c=1.4\times 10^{-4}$

Explanation:

first write the equilibrium equaion ,

$C_3H_6O_3$ ⇄ $C_3H_5O_3^{-} +H^{+}$

assuming degree of dissociation $\alpha$ =1/10;

and initial concentraion of $C_3H_6O_3$ =c;

At equlibrium ;

concentration of $C_3H_6O_3 = c-c\alpha$

$[C_3H_5O_3^{-} ]= c\alpha$

$[H^{+}] = c\alpha$

$K_a = \frac{c\alpha \times c\alpha}{c-c\alpha}$

$\alpha$ is very small so $1-\alpha$ can be neglected

and equation is;

$K_a = {c\alpha \times \alpha}$

$[H^{+}] = c\alpha$ = $\frac{K_a}{\alpha}$

$P_H =- log[H^{+} ]$

$P_H =-logK_a + log\alpha$

$K_a =1.38\times10^{-4}$

$\alpha = \frac{1}{10}$

$P_H= 3.86-1$

$P_H =2.86$

composiion ;

$c=\frac{1}{\alpha} \times [H^{+}]$

$[H^{+}] =antilog(-P_H)$

$[H^{+} ] =0.0014$

$c=0.0014\times \frac{1}{10}$

$c=1.4\times 10^{-4}$

Can any of you guys help me with this. Can y’all give me some facts about nucleus protons netrons and electrons :)

Mumz [18]

Answer:

the nucleus is the center of the atom, made up of protons and neutrons, without the nucleus you'd just have a bunch of electrons floating around; the nucleus is positively charged

protons are the positively charged particles that sit within the nucleus

neutrons are particles of no charge that sit within the nucleus, and because they have no charge, they do not cancel out the positive charge of the protons, making the nucleus positive

electrons are negatively charged particles that float around the nucleus in an area known as the electron cloud, they orbit around the nucleus because they are attracted to the positive charge of the nucleus (caused by the protons), with charges, opposites attract

What is an ionic bond

Pani-rosa [81]

Ionic bonding is the complete transfer of valence electron(s) between atoms. It is a type of chemical bond that generates two oppositely charged ions. In ionic bonds, the metal loses electrons to become a positively charged cation, whereas the nonmetal accepts those electrons to become a negatively charged anion.

1/ Which graph illustrates constant speed and velocity

Maksim231197 [3]

Velocity is said to be constant if its magnitude as well direction at any instant is remains the same. In D, if you draw a line parallel to y-axis at any time t, you can see that velocity is same. Hence, D is the correct graph.

The kinetic energy of gaseous molecules is greater than that of liquid molecules. Therefore, in gas, kinetic energy overcomes the force of attraction between molecules. In short, in gas phase, particles move at high speed and hence they have less force of attraction. In case of liquid phase, particles are close enough as a result there is much more force of attraction compared to gaseous molecules. In liquid state, kinetic energy cannot overcome force of attraction therefore, liquid molecules slow down.

Therefore, B is the correct answer.
