39.96 g product form when 16.7 g of calcium metal completely reacts.

<h3>What is the stoichiometric process?</h3>

Stoichiometry is a section of chemistry that involves using relationships between reactants and/or products in a chemical reaction to determine desired quantitative data.

Equation:

$Ca(s) + Cl_2(g)$ → $CaCl_2(s)$

In this case, for the undergoing reaction, we can compute the grams of the formed calcium chloride by noticing the 1:1 molar ratio between calcium and it (stoichiometric coefficients) and using their molar mass of 40 g/mol and 111 g/mol by using the following stoichiometric process:

$m_{ca_C_l_2}$ = 16.7 g Ca x $\frac{1 mol \;of \;Ca}{40g Ca}$ x $\frac{1 mol \;of \;CaCl_2}{1 mol \;Ca}$ x $\frac{111g of \;CaCl_2}{1 mol \;CaCl_2}$

$m_{ca_C_l_2}$ = 39.96 g

Hence, 39.96 g product form when 16.7 g of calcium metal completely reacts.

Which substances were ionic?

horsena [70]

<h3>Sodium chloride and Sodium bicarbonate are ionic substances</h3><h3>Further explanation </h3>

Atoms have different stability. Unstable atomic atoms will try to form stable electron configurations like those of noble gases. Where noble gases have the number of outer electrons 2 or 8

The formation of electron configurations such as noble gases can be done by sharing electrons with covalent bonds or hand over electrons with ionic bonds

Generally, ionic bonds occur in metals and nonmetallic elements.

While covalent bonds occur because of the use of shared electrons. In general, this bond occurs between nonmetallic elements, which has the same electron attraction

Characteristics of ionic compounds include: solid / crystalline form, soluble in water, conduct electricity

Let see the answer choices

It is a covalent compound because part of the hydrocarbon, a liquid that forms a bond between elements C, H and O, and does not dissolve in water (floats on water)

Cornstarch

Obtained from corn which contains glucose which is a carbohydrate. It does not dissolve in water. Contains a bond between C, H and O. Includes covalent compounds

Sodium chloride
Sodium bicarbonate

Both are ionic compounds, soluble in water, in solid form

NaCl ⇒ Na⁺ + Cl⁻

NaHCO₃⇒ Na⁺ + HCO₃⁻

What are the parts of the water system? Label the water wheel to show the matter and forms energy that flow through the system.

Irina-Kira [14]

Answer:

Source, processing and distribution are the components of water system.

Explanation:

There are three parts of water system i. e. the source, the processing and distribution. Water is extracted from a source such as underground water, lake or river etc. After extraction this water is transported to the processing unit where it can be purified and after purification it is distributed to all places where it is needed. Potential energy is a form of energy that flows through this water system because the water is extracted from a depth and we know that depth and height refers to potential energy.
