Calcium chloride forms an ionic compound with a regularly arranged lattice of oppositely charged ions.

The Na+ and Cl- ions are held together by strong electrostatic forces. 

Hope that helps

Explanation:

As we known that an ionic solid is a solid whose atoms chemically combine together by transfer of electrons from one atom to another.

For example, CaCl_{2} is an ionic solid because transfer of electrons take place from calcium to chlorine.

As a result, calcium atom has a partial positive change and chlorine atom has a partial negative charge. Hence, there will be strong intermolecular forces of attraction between the two because opposite charges attract each other.

Therefore, particles will be arranged in a regular crystal lattice of opposite charges.

The solubility of two slightly soluble salts of M^2+ , MA and MZ_2, are the same, 4 x 10^â4 mol/L.
LekaFEV [45]

Answer:

a) MZ₂

b) They have the same concentration

c) 4x10⁻⁴ mol/L

Explanation:

a) The solubility (S) is the concentration of the salt that will be dissociated and form the ions in the solution, the solubility product constant (Kps) is the multiplication of the concentration of the ions elevated at their coefficients. The concentration of the ions depends on the stoichiometry and will be equivalent to S.

The salts solubilization reactions and their Kps values are:

MA(s) ⇄ M⁺²(aq) + A⁻²(aq) Kps = S*S = S²

MZ₂(aq) ⇄ M⁺²(aq) + 2Z⁻(aq) Kps = S*S² = S³

Thus, the Kps of MZ₂ has a larger value.

b) A saturated solution is a solution that has the maximum amount of salt dissolved, so, the concentration dissolved is solubility. As we can notice from the reactions, the concentration of M⁺² is the same for both salts.

c) The equilibrium will be not modified because the salts have the same solubility. So, let's suppose that the volume of each one is 1 L, so the number of moles of the cation in each one is 4x10⁻⁴ mol. The total number of moles is 8x10⁻⁴ mol, and the concentration is:

8x10⁻⁴ mol/2 L = 4x10⁻⁴ mol/L.

Deposition?
Soloha48 [4]

The correct term for each statement is as follows;

  • Caves being formed by acid rain dissolving underground limestone - weathering
  • Deltas forming at the mouths of rivers - deposition
  • Glaciers scraping rocks across the earth’s surface - erosion
  • Rocks being made smooth by tumbling across a stream bed - weathering
  • Ponds filling up with sediment and becoming marshes - deposition

<h3>What is weathering?</h3>

Weathering in geology is the mechanical or chemical breaking down of rocks in situ by weather or other causes. options 7 and 14 are the case in this scenario as there is a breakdown of limestone and rocks.

Erosion is the result of having been worn away or eroded, as by a glacier on rock or the sea on a cliff face. Agents of erosion are water, ice or wind. Options 12 is an example of erosion because glaciers are wearing off rocks.

Deposition is the laying down of sediment carried by wind, flowing water, the sea or ice. Sediment can be transported as pebbles, sand and mud, or as salts dissolved in water. Options 8 and 15 are examples of deposition.
