The correct answer would be D. Ca^2+ has 18 electrons. This is because 2+ means that 2 electrons have been removed, and Ca starts out with 20 electrons. As 20 - 2 = 18 electrons, D is the correct answer.
Hope this helps!
An ionic bond forms between a metal and a nonmetal. So, since C and O are nonmetals it cannot be that one. Also, P and Cl are also both nonmetals so it cannot be that one either. That leaves Li and O and Ca and Br. In an ionic bond metals loose electrons and nonmetals gain electrons. Therefore it cannot be Li and O because it states that oxygen, the nonmetal, looses electrons and lithium, the metal, looses electrons. So, the answer has to be Ca and Br because Ca, the metal, looses electrons and Br, the nonmetal, gains electrons.
An example of a general formula of an acid is
<span>HCl
This is called as hydrochloric acid or hydrogen chloride.
H represents for the atom of Hydrogen
and Cl represents for the atom of Chlorine
Since their charges are -1, and +1, it's ratio is 1:1</span>
There are several ways to visually represent compounds. For this particular organic compound, we can use the skeletal formula and the expanded formula. The skeletal makes use of lines to show which atoms are bonded to each other. The expanded formula shows the species of the atoms and their bonding with other atoms. I have attached the two representations.
Answer:
my teacher would let u say the density to mass is the ratio but i think everyone's different
