Answer: $CuSO_4$

Explanation: For formation of a neutral ionic compound, the charges on cation and anion must be balanced. The cation is formed by loss of electrons by metals and anions are formed by gain of electrons by non metals.

Here Copper is having an oxidation state of +2 and sulfate is a polyatomic ion with oxidation state of -2. Thus they combine to form neutral $CuSO_4$ .

The cations and anions being oppositely charged attract each other through strong coloumbic forces and form an ionic bond.

$Cu^{2+}+SO_4^{2-}\rightarrow CuSO_4$

Calculate the molar concentration of the Cl⁻ ions in 0.92 M MnCl2(aq).

scZoUnD [109]

MnCl2(aq) is an ionic compound which will have the releasing of 2 Cl⁻ ions ions in water for every molecule of MnCl2 that dissolves.
MnCl2(s) --> Mn+(aq) + 2 Cl⁻(aq)
[Cl⁻] = 0.92 mol MnCl2/1L × 2 mol Cl⁻ / 1 mol MnCl2 = 1.8 M
The answer to this question is [Cl⁻] = 1.8 M

If two atoms are bonded with a bond energy of 87 kJ, what must be done to break the bond?

SSSSS [86.1K]

I would say the energy has to be decreased by 87 kj because the bonding is held together by 87 kj so removing that should prevent the bonding from taking place or reverse it I believe. In other words, a certain amount of energy is required to hold the bond together and in the absence of that energy, the bonding will not take place.

What is the affected variable in an experiment. A:independent. B:dependent. C:control

Semmy [17]

In a controlled experiment, an independent variable (the cause) is systematically manipulated and the dependent variable (the effect) is measured; any extraneous variables are controlled. The researcher can operationalize (i.e. define) the variables being studied so they can be objectivity measured.
