Answer:

Salt

Explanation:

Ionic/electrovalent bond is a type of intramolecular force that involves the transfer of electrons from a metallic atom (to form a cation) to a non-metallic atom (to form a cation). Compounds that have ionic bonds are called ionic compounds/salts. Examples of ionic salts include NaCl, NaF, KI, KBr among others.

In NaCl for instance, the sodium (Na) atom donates the only electron on its outermost shell to form sodium ion (Na⁺) while chlorine (Cl) receives this electron to become chloride ion (Cl⁻).

A camcorder has a power rating of 11 watts. If the output voltage from its battery is 8 volts, what current does it use?
Reika [66]

The camcorder uses a current of 1.4 A.

<em>P = VI </em>

<em>I</em> = <em>P</em>/<em>V</em> = 11 W/8 V = 1.4 A

<em>Note</em>: The answer can have only <em>one significant figure</em> because that is all you gave for the voltage. However, I calculated the current to two significant figures.

What is the energy of a single photon of blue light with a wavelength of 488 nm (488 × 10-9 m)?
Vinvika [58]
E = hf

c = speed of electromagnetic wave, c ≈ 3 * 10⁸ m/s, 
Planck's constant h = 6.63 *10⁻³⁴ Js

h = Planck's constnat,  Frquency, f = c/λ = (3*10⁸)/(488*10⁻⁹)

E = hf

E = hc/λ

E = (6.63 * 10⁻³⁴ * 3 * 10⁸) /(488 * 10⁻⁹)

Energy, E ≈ 4.0758 * 10⁻¹⁹  Joules.
