<u>Answer:</u> The correct answer is hydrogen and carbon.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Hydrocarbons are defined as the compounds in which covalent bond is present between hydrogen and carbon atom. They are also called as organic compounds.

If any other atom other than hydrogen and carbon is present, it is not considered as hydrocarbon.

For Example: $C_2H_6$ is an organic compound but $CO_2$ is not an organic compound.

Hence, the correct answer is hydrogen and carbon.

Which particle diagram represents a mixture of three substances

Anni [7]

Following the key in the diagram (see the attached image), the only particle diagram that represents a mixture of three substances is diagram 2.

To simplify it, let us replace the key in the diagram as follows;

atom of one element = A
atom of different element = B

Diagram 1 consists of only AA and AB

Diagram 2 consists of AA, BB, and AB.

Diagram 3 consists of AA and ABA

Diagram 4 consists of AA and BAB

Thus, only diagram 2 has a mixture of 3 substances.

An ionic bond occurs between what particles?

atroni [7]

Answer:

A positive and negative ion.

Explanation:

Ionic bond:

It is the bond which is formed by the transfer of electron from one atom to the atom of another element.

Both bonded atoms have very large electronegativity difference.

The atom with large electronegativity value accept the electron from other with smaller value of electronegativity.

For example:

Sodium chloride is ionic compound. The electronegativity of chlorine is 3.16 and for sodium is 0.93. There is large difference is present. That's why electron from sodium is transfer to the chlorine. Sodium becomes positive and chlorine becomes negative ion. Sodium have one valance electron while chlorine have 7 valance electrons. In order to complete the octet chlorine require one electron while sodium need to lose its one electrons. That's why when both atom combine sodium lose its electron and becomes positive ion i.e cation while chlorine accept its electron and becomes negative ion called anion and bond between them is ionic bond.

How can carbon dating be used to study the history of the earth?

grigory [225]

The molar heat of fusion of gold is 12.550 kJ mol–1. At its melting point, how much mass of melted gold must solidify to release

KATRIN_1 [288]

The mass of melted gold to release the energy would be 3, 688. 8 Kg

<h3>How to determine the mass</h3>

The formula for quantity of energy is given thus;

Q = n × HF

Where n represents number of moles

HF represents heat of fusion

To find the number of moles, we have

235.0 = n × 12.550

number of moles = $\frac{235}{12. 550}$ = 18. 725 moles

Note that molar mass of Gold is 197g/ mol

Let's note that;

Number of moles = mass/ molar mass

Mass = number of moles × molar mass

Mass = 18. 725 × 197

Mass = 3, 688. 8 Kg

Thus, the mass of melted gold to release the energy would be 3, 688. 8 Kg
