Answer:  An ionic bond is a bond that forms between ions with opposite charges.

Explanation:

A chemical bond formed by the transfer of electrons from one atom to another is called an ionic bond.

For example, sodium has electronic distribution as 2, 8, 1 and chlorine has electronic distribution as 2, 8, 7.

In order to attain stability, sodium needs to lose 1 electron and chlorine needs to gain one electron. Therefore, sodium will transfer its one valence electron (forming Na^{+} ion) to chlorine atom (forming Cl^{-} ion) which leads to the formation of NaCl compound.

Thus, we can conclude that an ionic bond is a bond that forms between ions with opposite charges.

Ksju [112]

Answer:

the ion present in the original solution is Ca2+

Explanation:

Precipitation reactions occur when cations and anions in aqueous solution combine to form an insoluble ionic solid called a precipitate.

<u>Step1</u> : If we add Nacl to the solution, there is no precipitate formed

⇒The only possible ion that can form a precipate with Cl- is Ag+; since there is no precipitate formed, Ag+ is not present

<u>Step2</u> : If we add Na2SO4 to the solution, a white precipitate is formed

The possible ions to bind at SO42- are Ca2+ and Fe2+

But the white precipitate formed, points in the direction of Ca2+

⇒This means calcium is present

<u>Step3</u> : If we add Na2CO3 to the filtered solution, there is a precipate formed

Ca2+ will bind also with CO32- and form a precipitate

So the ion present in the original solution is Ca2+

Determine the amount of energy (heat) in joules required to raise the temperature of 20g of gold from 5°C to 37°C.
insens350 [35]

Answer:

The answer to your question is E = 83.2 J

Explanation:

Data

Element: Gold

Initial temperature = T1 = 5°C

Final temperature = T2 = 37°C

mass = 20 g

Specific heat = 130 J/kg°K

Process

1.- Convert temperature to kelvin

T1 = 273 + 5 = 278°K

T2 = 273 + 37 = 310°K

2.- Convert mass to kg

             1000 g --------------- 1 kg

                 20 g --------------- x

                 x = (20 x 1)/1000

                 x = 0.02 kg

3.- Formula

E = mC(T2 -T1)

4.- Substitution

E = (0.02)(130)(310 - 278)

E = (0.02)(130)(32)

E = 83.2 J
