Which of the following statements is NOT true?
maria [59]

Answer : The incorrect statements are:

(A) When two nonmetals react, the compound formed is ionic.

(B) Two nonmetals can undergo an oxidation-reduction reaction.

Explanation :

Covalent compound : It is defined as the compound which is formed by the sharing of electrons between the atoms forming a compound.

The covalent compound are usually formed when two non-metals react.

The two nonmetals can not undergo an oxidation-reduction reaction.

Ionic compound : It is defined as the compound which is formed when electron gets transferred from one atom to another atom.

Ionic compound are usually formed when a metal reacts with a non-metal.

The metal-nonmetal reaction can always be assumed to be an oxidation-reduction reaction.

For example : 2Na(s)+Cl_2(g)\rightarrow 2NaCl(s)

In this reaction, sodium shows oxidation because the oxidation state changes from (0) to (+1) and and chlorine shows reduction because the oxidation state changes from (0) to (-1).

Hence, the incorrect statements are, (A) and (B)

How many grams of magnesium are needed to completely react
Verizon [17]

97.22 grams of magnesium is needed.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The molar ratio of Mg to O2  to make MgO is 2:1

Here, we have 2 moles of O2, therefore we need 4 moles of Mg.

1 mol of Mg = 24.305 g

Therefore

4 moles of Mg = 4 \times 24.305 g

                        = 97.22 g

Hence we need 97.22grams of magnesium are needed to completely reactwith 2.00 mol of O2 in the synthesis reaction that producesmagnesium oxide.

After Frank Palko was sentenced to death by the state of Connecticut, the Supreme Court ruled that
GREYUIT [131]
<span>The answer is "his conviction and execution should be upheld". Frank Palko was first charged with murder and claimed that Connecticut violated the Double Jeopardy Clause of the Fifth Amendment. The fifth amendment states that "there must be no person to be put twice in jeopardy of life and limb" so this was the violation the court made after they charge him with murder for the second time. That's why when the second trial was made,he was sentenced to by the Supreme court which decided that he should be executed and convicted because of the evidences found.</span>
