A - Sulfur dioxide is an ion because it contains 2 or more elements, and it is a solid
First, we must know what happens in the precipitation reaction. This type of reaction is a double replacement reactions. It is consists of two reactant compounds which interchange cations and anions to form two products. One of the products is an insoluble solid called a precipitate. For the precipitation of CaCO₃, there are two consecutive reactions involved:
1. Slaking of quicklime, CaO
CaO + H₂O ⇒ Ca(OH)₂
2. Precipitation
Ca(OH)₂ + CO₂ ⇒ CaCO₃ + H₂O
The ions that make up the H₂O molecule are H⁺ and OH⁻. According to solubility rules, the cation (positively charged ion) is likely to be attracted to an anion (negatively charged ion). Together, they form an ionic bond. This type of bond is when there is a complete transfer of electrons between the two. The Ca²⁺ cation lacks 2 electrons, while the anion OH⁻ has an excess 1 electron. In order to be stable, 1 Ca²⁺ ion and 2 OH⁻ ions must combine.
Therefore, the answer is OH⁻ ion.
Increasing the concentration of one or more reactants will often increase the rate of reaction. This occurs because a higher concentration of a reactant will lead to more collisions of that reactant in a specific time period.
Reaction rate increases with concentration, as described by the rate law and explained by collision theory. As reactant concentration increases, the frequency of collision increases. The rate of gaseous reactions increases with pressure, which is, in fact, equivalent to an increase in concentration of the gas.
<span>Okay then I would go with choice B since fusion takes place in the sun which is a giant star.</span>
