The only logical answer is A
What did Dalton's atomic theory contribute to science?
Dalton's atomic theory proposed that all matter was composed of atoms, indivisible and indestructible building blocks. While all atoms of an element were identical, different elements had atoms of differing size and mass.
Balanced chemical reaction: 2K(s) + 2H₂O(l) → 2KOH(aq) + H₂(g).
KOH is inorganic compound p<span>otassium hydroxide, a strong base.
H</span>₂ is hydrogen gas.
In balanced chemical reaction number of atoms on both side of chemical reaction must be same. There are two potassium atoms, four hydrogen atoms and two oxygen atoms on both side of reaction.
Answer is (2) - hydrogen carbonate
<em>Explanation:</em>
NaHCO₃ is an ionic compound which is made from Na⁺ and HCO₃⁻ ions. The decomposition is
NaHCO₃ → Na⁺ + HCO₃⁻
Among the resulted ions, Na⁺ is a monatomic ion while HCO₃⁻ is a polyatomic ion.
<em>Polyatomic ions mean ions which are made of two or more different atoms.</em>
HCO₃⁻ is made from 3 atoms as H, C and O. The name of HCO₃⁻ ion is bicarbonate or hydrogen carbonate.
For the answer to the question above, I can't help you directly because I don't have a calculator right now. But I'll show you how to solve this.
<span>use the freezing point depression formula for this one: delta T = i * m * K where K is a constant, m is the molality (mol solute/kg solvent), and i is the van'hoff factor the van hoff factor is the number of ions that your salt dissociates into. Since it's an ALKALI flouride salt, how many ions? k is just a constant, you get it from a table in your textbook somewhere So you have everything to solve for the molality of the solution, once you did that, multiplying it by the mass of water to find the mols of the salt. Take the mass of the salt and divide by this mols to figure out the molar mass, and then compare it with the periodic table to identify the salt.

<u>Mole solute</u> x mass of Water = Mol solute<u>
</u>kg Solvent
then
Mass of solute x <u> 1 </u> = molar mass
mole of solute
