Which of the following are characteristics of ionic

Chemistry
1 answer:
Margarita [4]2 years ago
6 0

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.

In an experiment, potassium chlorate decomposed according to the following chemical equation.
Arada [10]

Answer:  

(240 × 3 × 31.998)/(122.5 × 2)   g

Step-by-step explanation:

We know we will need a balanced equation with masses and molar masses, so let’s gather all the information in one place.  

M_r:          122.5                31.998

               2KClO₃ ⟶ 2KCl + 3O₂

Mass/g:     240  

Mass of O₂ = 240 g KClO₃ × (1 mol KClO₃/122.5 g KClO₃) × (3 mol O₂/2 mol KClO₃)  × (31.998 g O₂/1 mol O₂) = 94.0 g O₂

Mass of O₂= (240 × 3 × 31.998)/(2 × 122.5) = 94.0 g O₂

John dalton postulated several statements about the atom. which statement did he NOT state?
algol [13]

Answer:

The atom is divisible particle and can be subdivided into smaller particles proton, neutron and electrons was not stated by John dalton.

Explanation:

The postulate of Dalton's atomic theory  that atom is indivisible particle and can not be subdivided into smaller particles was later changed because atom can be divided into neutrons, protons and electrons.

Electron:

The electron is subatomic particle that revolve around outside the nucleus and has negligible mass. It has a negative charge.

Symbol= e⁻

Mass= 9.10938356×10⁻³¹ Kg

It was discovered by j. j. Thomson in 1897 during the study of cathode ray properties.

Proton and neutron:

While neutron and proton are present inside the nucleus. Proton has positive charge while neutron is electrically neutral. Proton is discovered by Rutherford while neutron is discovered by James Chadwick in 1932.

Symbol of proton= P⁺

Symbol of neutron= n⁰  

Mass of proton=1.672623×10⁻²⁷ Kg

Mass of neutron=1.674929×10⁻²⁷ Kg

All these three subatomic particles construct an atom. A neutral atom have equal number of proton and electron.
