Answer:
Two covalent bonds form between the two oxygen atoms because oxygen requires two shared electrons to fill its outermost shell. Nitrogen atoms will form three covalent bonds (also called triple covalent) between two atoms of nitrogen because each nitrogen atom needs three electrons to fill its outermost shell.
Elements are substances that contain only 1 kind of atom.
Answer:
a. A beta particle has a negative charge. d. A beta particle is a high-energy electron.
Explanation:
Identify the correct descriptions of beta particles.
a. A beta particle has a negative charge. YES. A beta particle is originated in the following nuclear reaction: ¹₀n ⇒ ¹₁H + ⁰₋₁e (beta particle.)
b. A beta particle contains neutrons. NO. It is a electron originated in the nucleus.
c. A beta particle is less massive than a gamma ray. NO. Gamma rays don't have mass while a beta particle has a mass which is half of one thousandth of the mass of a proton.
d. A beta particle is a high-energy electron. YES. Beta particles are nuclear originated hig-energy electrons.
Answer: D. They show that neither theory is complete and entirely correct.
Explanation:
Theory is the set of rules and principles that describe and explain a particular phenomenon (the existence of the moon in this case) and is subject to changes as new evidence emerges that gives meaning to it.
In this sense, there are many theories about the Earth's moon formation and two of the "accepted" theories are described before the question. In addition, both theories explain in a certain way the reason why the Moon is predominantly composed of elements similar to those found on Earth.
However, both theories seem to be incomplete when trying to explain our Moon's origin.
Ionic compounds are those compounds which form an ion or
dissociates into ions when placed in a solution. These compounds are made up of
a metal and non metal. From the choices, here are the ionic compounds:
na2so4
h2so4
cacl2
