Ionic bond is a chemical bond formed by the complete transfer of electrons between two atoms. The atom that loses electrons gains a positive charge (cation) and that which accepts electrons gains a negative charge (anion). Now, electronegativity is a parameter that measures the tendency of an atom to accept electrons. In the context of ionic bonding, two elements which show a significant difference in their electronegativity values form ionic bonds.
In the given examples, the difference in electronegativity is greatest between K and Br i.e. 0.8 and 2.8 respectively with a difference of 2.0. This also makes sense since K and Br are on the extreme ends of the periodic table. Hence, potassium with a valence electron configuration of 4s1 will lose its s electron to Br (4s24p6) and form an ionic molecule K⁺Br⁻
Ans E) potassium and bromine
Answer:
the unknown substance is a protein
Explanation:
The biuret test is one of the tests for proteins. It can be used to detect peptide linkages. The biuret test is carried out in an alkaline solution. A coordination complex is formed leading to the appearance of a violet color.
Summarily, the biuret method is a colorimetric technique used to test for proteins and peptides. It involves the formation of a purple (violet) complex of Copper salts in alkaline solution.
Hence when the biuret reagent is added to an unknown substance and it turns purple, the unknown substance is a protein
Sawing a board in half is a physical change not a chemical change the board doesnt change wood or whatever material it is is still would still be wood
If it were burned it would be a chemical change but its properties stay the same atomically so thats why its not a chemical change.
Answer:
A
Explanation:
There are three states of mater; solid liquid and gas. The sold state is the difficult to compress while the gaseous state is quite easy to compress.
A gas is easily compressed because the particles in a gas are far apart from each other. A solid is difficult to compress because the particles of a solid are close together. From all the above statements, it is easily deducible that the compressibility property of a substance in a particular state of matter depends on the proximity of the particles to each other, hence the answer above.
Answer:
i would say D i just did this but i kinda forgot so sorry if im wrong or A
