Answer: MgSO_4.7H_2O

Explanation:

MgSO_4 is an ionic compound because aluminium element is a metal and hydrogen element is a non-metal. The bond formed between a metal and a non-metal is always ionic in nature.

The nomenclature of ionic compounds is given by:

1. Positive is written first.

2. The negative ion is written next and a suffix is added at the end of the negative ion. The suffix written in case of SO_4^{2-} is '-ate'.

Hence, the name of MgSO_4 is magnesium sulphate.

The water of crystallization is written as hydrate with the number of water molecules. As the name is heptahydrate, that means 7 water molecules are present.

Therefore, the correct answer is MgSO_4.7H_2O

ExtremeBDS [4]
Using the answer from the first part, we know that 2.957 moles of bismuth have formed. Moreover, the molar ratio between bismuth and carbon monoxide is:

2 : 3

Using the method of ratios,

2 : 3
2.957 : CO

CO = (3 * 2.957) / 2
CO = 4.4355

4.436 moles of carbon monoxide will be formed

Is photosphere the layer that emits sunlight?​
weqwewe [10]

Answer:

In our Sun, as in other stars, roughly 99.9% or so of all light emitted is emitted in a thin layer known as the photosphere, or light sphere. This is explained as follows. Interior to the photosphere the gas is ever denser and becomes far too opaque for any photon to emerge directly from that layer.
