An ionic bond is a type of chemical bond formed through an electrostatic attraction between two oppositely charged ions. Ionic bonds are formed between a cation, which is usually a metal, and an anion, which is usually a nonmetal. A covalent bond involves a pair of electrons being shared between atoms.

For each of the following compounds, state whether it is ionic or covalent, and if it is ionic, write the symbols for the ions i
kupik [55]

Answer :

Covalent compound : It is defined as the compound which is formed by the sharing of electrons between the atoms forming a compound.

The covalent compound are usually formed when two non-metals react.

Ionic compound : It is defined as the compound which is formed when electron gets transferred from one atom to another atom.

All the polyatomic ions always form an ionic compound.

Polyatomic ions : It is a charged species that composed of two or more atoms and these charged species are bonded by the covalent bond.

For the given options:

Option A:  KClO_4

This compound is formed by the combination of potassium, K^+ which is a metal and ClO_4^- ion which is a polyatomic ion. Thus, it will form an ionic compound.

Option B:  Mg(C_2H_3O_2)_2

This compound is formed by the combination of magnesium, Mg^{2+} which is a metal and C_2H_3O_2^{-} ion which is a polyatomic ion. Thus, it will form an ionic compound.

Option C:  H_2S

Hydrogen and sulfur, both are non-metals and they will form a covalent compound.

Option D:  Ag_2S

This compound is formed by the combination of silver, Ag^{+} which is a metal and sulfur, S^{2-} which is a non-metal. Thus, it will form an ionic compound.

Option E:  N_2Cl_4

Nitrogen and chlorine, both are non-metals and they will form a covalent compound.

Option F:  Co(NO_3)_2

This compound is formed by the combination of cobalt, Co^{2+} which is a metal and NO_3^{-} ion which is a polyatomic ion. Thus, it will form an ionic compound.

A gas is at a pressure of 4.30 atm. what is this pressure in kilopascals? in mm hg?
Monica [59]
Units to measure pressure are as follows
atm - atmospheric pressure units
kPa - kilo Pascals
mm Hg - milimeters Hg
conversion units are;
 1 atm = 101 325 Pa
therefore 4.30 atm = 101 325 Pa / atm x 4.30 atm = 435.7 Pa

1 atm = 760.0 mm Hg
 4.30 atm = 760.0 mm Hg / atm x 4.30 atm = 3268 mm Hg

answers are 435.7 Pa and 3268 mm Hg

Which is the dependent variable in an experiment? 1.what I observe. 2. what I keep the same 3.What I change in the experiment. H
shtirl [24]

Answer:

1.what I observe.

Explanation:

The dependent variable in an experiment is what is being observed in the experimental procedure.

This variable is the one that is closely tied to the effects originating from changing the independent variables.

  • Independent variables are the ones that cause the observation being studied.
  • The effects produced and then studied are the dependent variables.
