Answer:

B. Ca(NO2)2

Explanation:

Ions (charged atoms) combine with one another to form stable ionic compounds. In this case, calicium ion (Ca2+) is said to react with NO2, which has a charge of -1 i.e. +1-1(2) = 1-2 = -1.

This means that calcium has a charge of +2 while nitrite ion has charge of -1, hence, when they combine, they exchange their charges, which become their subscript as follows:

Ca2+ + NO2- → Ca(NO2)2

Ca(NO2)2 is a stable ionic compound called calcium nitrite. Notice that it takes two atoms of NO2- to react with one atom of Ca2+.

What led Marie Curie to draw the following conclusions? (b) A highly radioactive element, aside from uranium, occurs in pitchble

AVprozaik [17]

Making repeated separations of the various substances in the pitchblende, Marie and Pierre used the Curie electrometer to identify the most radioactive fractions. They thus discovered that two fractions, one containing mostly bismuth and the other containing mostly barium, were strongly radioactive.

<h3>What was surprising about pitchblende?</h3>

Since it was no longer appropriate to call them “uranic rays,” Marie proposed a new name: “radioactivity.”

Even more surprising, Marie next found that a uranium ore called pitchblende contained two powerfully radioactive new elements: polonium, which she named for her native Poland, and radium.

<h3>Why is radium more radioactive than uranium?</h3>

It is 2.7 million times more radioactive than the same molar amount of natural uranium (mostly uranium-238), due to its proportionally shorter half-life.

Solve this word problem:

valina [46]

Answer:

The new acceleration becomes twice the pervious acceleration.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of the rock, m = 3 kg

Force, F = 1 N

We know that the force acting on an object is given by :

F = ma

a is acceleration of the rock

Put m = 3 kg and F = 1N,

$a=\dfrac{F}{m}\\\\a=\dfrac{1}{3}\ m/s^2$

If the force is doubled, F' = 2 N

So,

F'=ma'

$a'=\dfrac{F'}{m}\\\\a'=\dfrac{2\times 1}{3}\\\\a'=\dfrac{2}{3}\\\\a'=2\times \dfrac{1}{3}\\\\a'=2a$

So, the new acceleration becomes twice the initial acceleration.

What bonds of the reactants are broken in this reaction? What bonds are formed in the product?

Y_Kistochka [10]

<span>Bonds of reactants are broken and create new bonds to form different products and produces exothermic and endothermic reactions.
You are able to see a chemical reaction occur through a few signs
hope this helps
