Ion, any atom or group of atoms that bears one or more positive or negative electrical charges. Positively charged ions are called cations; negatively charged ions, anions. Ions are formed by the addition of electrons to, or the removal of electrons from, neutral atoms or molecules or other ions; by combination of ions with other particles; or by rupture of a covalent bond between two atoms in such a way that both of the electrons of the bond are left in association with one of the formerly bonded atoms. Examples of these processes include the reaction of a sodium atom with a chlorine atom to form a sodium cation and a chloride anion; the addition of a hydrogen cation to an ammonia molecule to form an ammonium cation; and the dissociation of a water molecule to form a hydrogen cation and a hydroxide anion.

Charlotte is driving at 58.6 mi/h and receives a text message. She looks down at her phone and takes her eyes off the road for 4
kramer

Answer:   19.71 feet

Explanation:

Given:  Speed of Charlotte =58.6 mi/h

Since 1 hour = 3600 seconds

and 1 mile = 5280 feet

So, Speed of Charlotte = \dfrac{58.6\times5280}{3600}\approx85.95 mi/ sec

She looks down at her phone and takes her eyes off the road for 4.36 s.

Since , Distance = \dfrac{speed}{time}

So, Distance = \dfrac{85.95}{4.36}=19.71\ feet

Hence, Charlotte traveled  19.71 feet during this time.

SO2________________.
Mashcka [7]

Answer:

a. Dipole-dipole bonding

Explanation:

SO2 has dipole-dipole bonding. This is because of the difference in the electronegativities  of Sulphur and oxygen. Moreover, the lone pair of electrons on S gives it bent shape with a net dipole  unlike CO2 which has a linear shape.( This why CO2 does not have any dipole moment).

So, the correct answer is a.
