Answer:

If one element is a metal and the other element is a non metal

Explanation:

Ionic bonds are formed between metals and non metals. The nonmetal atom receives electron(s) from a metal atom to form an ionic substance. This means that ionic substances are basically an ion pair.

Covalent bonds are mostly formed between two nonmetals. These elements share electrons with each other in order to form the compound.

Margarita [4]

Answer:

have high melting and boiling points
are hard
are good conductors of electricity when dissolved in water

Explanation:

Ionic compounds are compounds that are formed between a metal and non-metal with a significant electronegativity difference. The metals transfers their electrons to the non-metals and the electrostatic attraction of the ions brings about the bonding that forms the compound.

Ionic compounds are diverse in nature and form.

Here are some of their properties:

They are usually hard solids with a high melting point or liquids with high boiling points
They are soluble in water and non-soluble in non-polar solvents
They are able to conduct electricity in molten form.
They undergo very fast reaction in aqueous solutions.

A sample was prepared by mixing 18. ml of 3.00 x 10^-3 m crystal violet (cv) with 2.00 ml of 0.250 m naoh. calculate the resulti

Aleks [24]

Answer : The resulting concentrations of CV and NaOH are 0.0027 M and 0.025 M respectively.

Explanation :

Step 1 : Find moles of crystal violet and NaOH.

The molarity formula is

$Molarity = \frac{mol}{L}$

Molarity of crystal violet = $3.00 \times 10^{-3} = \frac{mol (CrystalViolet)}{L}$

The volume of crystal violet solution is 18 mL which is 0.018 L.

Moles of crystal violet = $3.00 \times 10^{-3} \times 0.018 = 5.4 \times 10^{-5}$

Moles of crystal violet = 5.4 x 10⁻⁵

Moles of NaOH = $Molarity \times L = 0.250 \times 0.00200 = 5.00 \times 10^{-4}$

Moles of NaOH = 5.00 x 10⁻⁴

Step 2 : Find total volume of the solution

The total volume of the solution after mixing NaOH and crystal violet is

0.018 L + 0.00200 = 0.020 L

Step 3 : Use molarity formula to find final concentrations

Molarity of crystal violet = $\frac{mol(CrystalViolet)}{Total Volume(L) } = \frac{5.4 \times 10^{-5}}{0.020} = 2.7 \times 10^{-3}$

Final concentration of CV = 0.0027 M

Molarity of NaOH= $\frac{mol(NaOH)}{Total Volume(L) } = \frac{5.00 \times 10^{-4}}{0.020} = 0.025 \times 10^{-3}$

NaOH is a strong base and dissociates completely as follows.

$NaOH (aq) \rightarrow Na^{+} (aq) + OH^{-} (aq)$

The mole ratio of NaOH and OH⁻ is 1:1 . Therefore the concentration of OH⁻ is same as that of NaOH.

Concentration of OH⁻ = 0.025 M
