Covalent bonds form when electrons are shared between two nonmetals.
The second option only.
<h3>Explanation</h3>
A base neutralizes an acid when the two reacts to produce water and a salt.
Sulfuric acid H₂SO₄ is the acid here. There are more than one classes of bases that can neutralize H₂SO₄. Among the options, there are:
Metal hydroxides
Metal hydroxides react with sulfuric acid to produce water and the sulfate salt of the metal.
.
The formula for calcium sulfate
in option A is spelled incorrectly. Why? The charge on each calcium
is +2. The charge on each sulfate ion
is -2. Unlike
ions, it takes only one
ion to balance the charge on each
ion. As a result,
and
ions in calcium sulfate exist on a 1:1 ratio.
.
Ammonia, NH₃
Ammonia NH₃ can also act as a base and neutralize acids. NH₃ exists as NH₄OH in water:
.
The ion
acts like a metal cation. Similarly to the metal hydroxides, NH₃ (or NH₄OH) neutralizes H₂SO₄ to produce water and a salt:
.
The formula of the salt (NH₄)₂SO₄ in the fourth option spelled the ammonium ion incorrectly.
As part of the salt (NH₄)₂SO₄, the ammonium ion NH₄⁺ is one of the products of this reaction and can't neutralize H₂SO₄ any further.
Convert the amount of substance in carat to grams.
(5.0 carat) x (0.200 g / 1 carat) = 1 g
The volume of the substance is obtained by dividing the mass by the density,
v = m / d
v = 1 g / (3.51 g/cm³) = 0.2849 cm³
Therefore, the volume of a 5.0 carat diamond is approximately 0.285 cm³.
