Answer:

We can simply refer to the cation in the ionic compound as magnesium. Phosphorus, Pstart text, P, end text, is a group 15 element and therefore forms 3- anions.

Explanation:

Because it is an anion, we add the suffix -ide to its name to get phosphide as the name of the ion.

how much sodium chloride must be added to 100 mL of water so that its concentration is 20 parts per million assume that the dens

OlgaM077 [116]

Answer: 2mg

Part per million is unit that equal to mg/kg of water or simply $10^{-6}$ . In this case, you asked how much NaCl needed and know the volume of water(100mL), concentration(20ppm or 20 mg/kg) and water density.
Then, the equation would be

concentration = NaCl weight/ water weight
20 x $10^{-6}$ mg= NaCl weight/ (100ml x 1g/ml)
NaCl weight= 20x $10^{-6}$ mg/kg x 100g
NaCl weight= 2000 x $10^{-6}$ g
NaCl weight= 2x $10^{-3}$ g = 2mg

Why is carbon used to date things that were once living?

Natali [406]

Explanation:

The reason carbon dating works is that the fresh carbon-14 gets mixed in with the rest of the carbon in the atmosphere and, since it's chemically identical to regular carbon, gets worked into whatever is presently absorbing atmospheric carbon
