By crushing the salt, you are performing a physical change because you aren't altering the chemical makeup of the salt, just the physical form. Hope this helps! :)
An ionic equation contains two ions in the full equation
Hello! Your answer is C, one atom of iron and three atoms of chlorine.
In this case, there is some ambiguity with "Cl". It could be C + I, or Cl. (One being carbon + iodine and the other Chlorine). However, we can see that the only choice that mentions iodine states two atoms, which is incorrect, as if it was iodine, the 3 indicates that there would be three atoms.
Therefore, Cl must be chlorine. If you look at choice C, there are three atoms of chlorine, as indicated by the 3 at the end of the Cl. There is also one molecule of Fe, as there is no number at the end of it so there has to be only one.
B is not correct, as carbon would be only "C". A is not correct as a molecule is a collection of atoms bonded together, therefore, this compound could be named a molecule, but there are not multiple molecules inside this compound.
Hope this helps!
HNO3
Explanation:
hydrochloric acid (HCl), sulfuric acid (H 2start subscript, 2, end subscriptSO 4start subscript, 4, end subscript), nitric acid (HNO 3start
D) otherwise we wouldn't be able to have water, oxygen gas, and all other compounds that have oxygen. We need at least 1 free slot to make a molecule
