Why are nonnative species a threat to biodiversity?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Elan Coil [88]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

A. They often use up resources that other organisms need.

Explanation:

Invasive alien species are animals, plants, fungi and microorganisms entered and established in the environment from outside of their natural habitat. T

hey reproduce rapidly, <u><em>out-compete native species for food, water and space</em></u>, and are one of the main causes of global biodiversity loss.

Write formulas for binary ionic compounds formed from each of the following pairs of elements
MakcuM [25]

Answer:

Binary compounds of potassium and sulfur:

K₂S

Binary compounds of silver chlorine:

AgCl

Binary compounds of calcium and oxygen:

CaO

Binary compounds of aluminium and iodine:

AlI₃

Binary compounds of barium and nitrogen:

Ba₃ N₂

Binary compounds of sodium and selenium:

Na₂Se

Explanation:

Binary compounds:

The compounds which are made up of the atoms of only two elements are called binary compounds.

For example:

The following compounds are binary:

HCl

H₂O

NH₃

HCl is binary because it is composed of only hydrogen and chlorine. Ammonia is also binary compound because it is made up of only two elements nitrogen and hydrogen.

water is also binary because it is also made up of only two elements hydrogen and oxygen.

Binary compounds of potassium and sulfur:

K₂S

The oxidation state of potassium is +1 and sulfur is -2 so two atoms of potassium will combine with one atom of sulfur.

Binary compounds of silver chlorine:

AgCl

The oxidation state of silver is +1 and chlorine is -1. Both combine to form silver chloride.

Binary compounds of calcium and oxygen:

CaO

calcium oxide is formed by calcium and oxygen. The oxidation state of calcium is +2 and oxygen is -2.

Binary compounds of aluminium and iodine:

AlI₃

The oxidation state of aluminium is +3 and iodine is -1 so three atoms of iodine will combine with one atom of aluminium.

Binary compounds of barium and nitrogen:

Ba₃ N₂

Barium nitride is formed by barium and nitrogen. The oxidation state of nitrogen is -3 and barium is +2.

Binary compounds of sodium and selenium:

Na₂Se

The oxidation state of selenium is -2 ans sodium is +1 so two atoms of sodium will combine with one atom of selenium.

Write the lewis structure for mgi2. draw the lewis dot structure for mgi2. include all lone pairs of electrons.
viktelen [127]
Lewis Structure is drawn in following steps,

1) Calculate Number of Valence Electrons:
    
# of Valence electrons in Mg  =  2
# of Valence electrons in I      =  7
# of Valence electrons in I      =  7
                                               ---------
Total Valence electrons          =  16

2) Draw Mg as a central atom surround it by two atoms of Iodine.

3) Connect each Iodine atom to Mg, and subtract two electrons per bond. In this case we will subtract 4 electrons from total valence electrons. i.e.

Total Valence electrons           16
- Four electrons                    -   4
                                              ----------
                                                  12

4) Now start adding the remaining 12 electrons on more electronegative atoms i.e. Iodine.

The final lewis structure formed is as follow,
