Answer:
An ionic bond
Explanation:
An M⁺ cation will be attracted to an X⁻ anion.
The bond formed by a cation-anion attraction is an ionic bond.
Answer: C) the splitting of a nucleus released a large burst of energy
Explanation:
nuclear fission occurs when an isotope (usually unstable) is hit with particles such as neutrons and splits, resulting in an extreme burst of energy.
for instance, the atomic bombs developed by the U.S. during WWII were products of nuclear fission in which plutonium-239 and uranium-235 were struck by a neutron that hit either nucleus of either isotope. The result was the neclus split into fragments that released huge amounts of energy snd the fission process became self-sustaining as neutrons produced by the splitting nucleus hit other nuclei and produce more fission, causing a chain reaction.
Sulphur trioxide reacts with water to form a solution of sulphuric acid.
The equation describing this reaction is:
SO3 + H2O .............> H2SO4
Based on the above equation, the formula of the compound formed when sulphur trioxide reacts with water is: H2SO4
Oxidation number is defined as the total number of electrons that are gained or lost by the atom to form a chemical bond.
the oxidation number of the compound H₂S is 0.
the sum of the oxidation numbers of the individual elements should add up to the oxidation number of the compound.
(oxidation number of H x 2 H ions) + oxidation number of S = 0
since we know the oxidation number of H, lets name the oxidation number of S = x
(+1 * 2 )+ (x) = 0
2 + x = 0
x = -2
oxidation number of S is -2
