Answer:

Antimony Borate

Explanation:

The compound name for the ion SbBO3

That would be Antimony borate

Initially we have the combination of antimony and the borate ion

Antimony has the ion Sb3+ while the borate have the ion BO3(3-)

According to IUPAC naming rules, the 3 on both ions will cancel out during combination to form a single molecule.

The difference between just a regular molecule and an ion is that while a molecule does not carry charge, an ion is charged. The positive or negative charge on an ion is what makes it different from a molecule which is not charged. Also, there must be a combination of a positive and a negative ion before we can have the formation of a molecule

Now, how it changes formula?

Although there are extensive rules but basically, a molecule is formed if there is a combination of ions.

Now, how an ion changes form in a molecule depends on the charge on the other ion

A positive ion most times come in contact with a negative ion to form a molecule.

Now, if we have the same magnitude of charge in both positive and negative sides, the charges will cancel out.

This is in the case of Antimony Borate where we had a magnitude of 3 on the positive and negative sides.

So they cancel out

In a case where this is not the case such as in the case of calcium and borate ion,

We have Calcium as Ca2+ and the borate ion as BO3(3-)

What happens here is that they switch ions and we have;

Ca3(BO3)2

Hope these helps!

Thank you

How do the names of molecular compounds differ from the names of ionic compounds.
34kurt

Long Answer:

Ionic: Cation is named first followed by the anion.

If it's an ionic compound with a transition metal, there are more than one possible ion. Molecular - named with the least electronegative ion first + prefixes are given to both ions to indicate number of atoms in each element.

Short Answer: Ionic compounds- Cation is named first, followed by the anion.

A body was found with no evidence of rigor.
musickatia [10]
The person has just died or has been dead for 36-48 hours 2. A body was found exhibiting rigor throughout the entire body. ... The body has been dead for about 6-8 hours because rigor mortis takes 12 hours to compute so it must be before 12 hours but over 6.

Answer:

I would not accept it.

Explanation:

Although it is tempting to accept the janitor's offer and save the scholarship, which is not easy to get, I would not accept his offer, as I do not believe in victories based on dishonesty and would be heavy on conscience if I did the opposite. Obviously, I would not like to lose my scholarship and for that reason, I would look for other ways that would be honest and help me improve my grade. If I could not improve and lose the scholarship, I would be extremely sad, but I would be at peace with my conscience.
