Answer:

C. CaCO₃  

Explanation:

One formula unit contains the elements calcium, carbon, and oxygen. Start by writing the symbol of the elements:

CaCO

We indicate the number of atoms of each element by writing the number as a subscript following the symbol.

One formula unit contains one atom of Ca, one of C, and three of O, so the formula becomes

Ca₁C₁O₃

Finally, we do not write one as a subscript in a formula. If there is no subscript, we automatically assume that it is one. Thus, the correct formula is

CaCO₃

Which of the following compounds are soluble in aqueous solutions? Select ALL that are soluble.
sattari [20]
<h3>Answer:</h3>
  • K₂S
  • CaSO₄ (slightly soluble in water)
  • Pb(ClO₄)₂
<h3>Explanation:</h3>
  • Mg(OH)₂  and CoCO₃ are insoluble in water.
  • Solubility rules are used to determine whether a compound will be soluble or not soluble in aqueous form.
  • K₂S is soluble in aqueous solutions as all salts of Potassium are soluble in water.
  • Calcium (ii) sulfate is slightly soluble in water.
  • Hydroxides are insoluble in water except, KOH, NaOH and NH₄OH.and Barium hydroxide. Therefore, Mg(OH)₂ is an insoluble hydroxide.
  • CoCO₃ is insoluble since carbonates are insoluble except K₂CO₃, Na₂CO₃ and (NH₄)₂CO₃. .
  • Pb(ClO₄)₂ is soluble because all perchlorates are soluble.

Alex lives in Arizona. He plants flowers in a pot with new soil mixed with fertilizers, and he places the pot on his back porch.

Since he’s watering it and it’s getting sun, i would say it’s because the soil isn’t rich enough and it doesn’t have the nutrients it needs for the plant to grow.

Place the following in order of increasing molar entropy at 298 K.
Genrish500 [490]

Answer:

SO < CO2 < C3H8

Explanation:

Entropy refers to the degree of disorderliness of a system. The standard molar entropy of a substance refers to the entropy of 1 mole of the substance vunder standard conditions.

The molar entropy depends on the number of microstates in the system which in turn depends on the number of atoms in the molecule.

C3H8 has 11 atoms and hence the highest number of microstates followed by CO2 having three atoms and least of all SO having only two atoms.
