Hey there

Thats easy

Precipitation occurs when cations and anions in aqueous solution combine to form an insoluble ionic compound called precipitation. So, you can refer to a solubility chart or draw polar/nonpolar lewis structures, that might be helpful.
Remember water is polar so polar molecules will dissolve in water

3. What is the formula for the compound formed from the magnesium ion and nitrate?
bija089 [108]

Answer:

D.) Mg(NO₃)₂

Explanation:

Since magnesium (Mg) is a metal and nitrate (NO₃) is a polyatomic anion, they would combine to form an ionic compound. Magnesium would form the cation Mg²⁺ because it generally has 2 valence electrons. Nitrate always has a -1 charge.

In order for the overall compound to be neutral (have a charge of 0), there must be one Mg²⁺ and two NO₃⁻ ions in the compound (+2 + (-1) + (-1) = 0).

Therefore, the formula for the compound formed is Mg(NO₃)₂.

Which phrase best describes the bond in H2?
Gala2k [10]

Answer and Explanation:

Two hydrogen atoms, each containing one electron, approach each other in the formation of a molecule of hydrogen. Each atom needs a total of two electrons to fill their outermost energy level and make them stable. The best choice is to share their single electrons. Hence, a pair of bonding electrons is shared between the hydrogen atoms in the molecules.

This constitutes a single covalent bond. Hence, the correct option is B)
