Answer:

The charge of an ionic compound is neutral because the positive and negative molecules cancel out each other.

An ionic compound is composed of a cation(a positive ion) and a anion(negative ion). When + and - interact with each other, the overall charge is neutral since neither of the ion outweighs the other in terms of positivity or negativity. Hence, the overall charge of an ionic compound is neutral.

Can someone help me understand what 1b is asking and how to answer it?
icang [17]
The question is basically asking what is happening to the energy (that is in the form of heat) when it is being absorbed by an object.  The energy being absorbed from the heat source is being turned into kinetic energy.  This can be explained by temperature change.  As you add more heat to an object, the temperature rises.  Since temperature is the average kinetic energy of all of the molecules in an object, we can say that as temperature rises so does the kinetic energy of the molecules in the object.  Due to the fact that heat is causing the temperature to increase, we can say that the energy from the heat is being turned into kinetic energy.  

I hope this helps.  Let me know in the comments if anything is unclear.

A decrease is the concentration of nitrogen monoxide (blank#1) between NO and H2 molecules. The rate of the forward reaction the
OverLord2011 [107]

In the given situation, the reaction is-

NO + H2 ↔ Products

The rate of the reaction can be expressed (in terms of the decrease in the concentration of the reactants) as-

Rate = -dΔ[NO]/dt = -dΔ[H2]/dt

Now, if the concentration of NO is decreased there will be fewer molecules of the reactant NO which would decrease the its collision with H2. As a result the rate of the forward reaction would also decrease.

Ans) A decrease in the concentration of nitrogen monoxide decreases the collisions between NO and H2 molecules. the rate of the forward reaction then decreases.

What is the balanced equation for the combustion of magnesium?
Lostsunrise [7]

Answer:

2Mg  +  O2 →  2MgO

Explanation:

In all conbustion you should know, that reactans are an specific compound and O2, so the products must be CO2 and H2O, or in this case, the corresponding oxide.
