Answer:

Boron Carbonate; B₂(CO₃)₃

Explanation:

For names, carbonide does not exist; that rules out the first option. Carbide refers to just a carbon atom, not carbon and oxygen as in the polyatomic ion carbonate. That rids us of the third option. We are left with boron carbonate with the formula BCO or boron carbonate with the formula B₂(CO₃)₃.

Recall the carbonate polyatomic ion's formula: CO₃²⁻

Thus BCO cannot be the formula.

Option 4 is your answer, Boron Carbonate; B₂(CO₃)₃.

To further check your answer, observe the oxidation states of boron and the polyatomic ion carbonate. Boron can exist in oxidation states of either 2+ or 3+, and carbonate is only 2-; in this formula, boron will exhibit a 3+ state to balance out with carbonate.

2x3+ = 6+; 3x2- = 6-

6+ + 6- = 0; balanced

How many molecules are there in 4dm³ of nitrogen gas​
daser333 [38]

There are 1.078 x 10²³ molecules

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

4 dm³ = 4 L Nitrogen gas

Required

Number of molecules

Solution

Assumptions on STP (1 atm, 273 K), 1 mol gas = 22.4 L, so for 4 L :

mol = 4 : 22.4

mol = 0.179

1 mol = 6.02 x 10²³ particles(molecules, atoms)

For 0.179 :

= 0.179 x 6.02 x 10²³

= 1.078 x 10²³

Define significant figure. Discuss the importance of using the proper number of significant figures in measurements and calculat
anastassius [24]

Explanation:

Significant figure is the measure of how accurately something can be measured. It carries meaning contributing to its measurement resolution. It is important to use proper number of significant figures to get a precise measurement. For example, if we use a meter stick then measurements like 0.874 meters, or 0.900 meters, are good because they indicate that we can measure to the nearest millimeter. Whereas a measurement like 0.8 does not tell that a meter stick can measure to the nearest millimeter.
