Which of the following causes the formation of ionic bonds

Chemistry
1 answer:
pantera1 [17]3 years ago
7 0

Answer: b. One atom transferring electrons to another atom

Explanation: An ionic bond is formed when an element completely transfers its valence electron to another element. The element which donates the electron is known as electropositive element and the element which accepts the electrons is known as electronegative element. This bond is formed between a metal and an non-metal.

Covalent bonds are formed by sharing of electrons between non metals

For example, In calcium iodide the one electron from calcium metal gets transferred to iodine atom and thus form an ionic bond to give CaI_2

Electronic configuration of calcium:

[Ca]=1s^22s^22p^63s^23p^64s^2

Calcium atom will lose two electron to gain noble gas configuration and form calcium cation with +2 charge.

[Ca^{2+}]=1s^22s^22p^63s^23p^6

Electronic configuration of iodine:

[I]=1s^22s^22p^63s^23p^64s^23d^{10}4p^5

Iodine atom will gain one electron to gain noble gas configuration and form iodide ion with -1 charge.

[I^-]=1s^22s^22p^63s^23p^64s^23d^{10}4p^6

Which type of model is a way of imagining how something works?​
RUDIKE [14]

Answer:

mental model is an explanation of someone's thought process about how something works in the real world. It is a representation of the surrounding world, the relationships between its various parts and a person's intuitive perception about his or her own acts and their consequences. Mental models can help shape behaviour and set an approach to solving problems (similar to a personal algorithm) and doing tasks.

How does distance affect work pls quick its 15 points pls keep it short pls help!!!!
ra1l [238]
The simple equation used to calculate work is force multiplied by distance, thus as this is the case increasing the distance by a certain amount, assuming the force applied to the object is constant, the amount of work you are doing on the box for instance pushing it, is going to be greater

Since you are pushing the box with the same force covering a greater distance with the force.

At 9°C a gas has a volume of 6.17 L. What is its volume when the gas is at standard temperature?
Alex17521 [72]

Answer:

V₂ = 5.97 L

Explanation:

Given data:

Initial temperature = 9°C (9+273 = 282 K)

Initial volume of gas  = 6.17 L

Final volume of gas = ?

Final temperature = standard = 273 K

Solution:

Formula:

The Charles Law will be apply to solve the given problem.

According to this law, 'the volume of given amount of a gas is directly proportional to its temperature at constant number of moles and pressure'

Mathematical expression:

V₁/T₁ = V₂/T₂

V₁ = Initial volume

T₁ = Initial temperature

V₂ = Final volume  

T₂ = Final temperature

Now we will put the values in formula.

V₁/T₁ = V₂/T₂

V₂ = V₁T₂/T₁  

V₂ = 6.17 L ×  273K /  282  k

V₂ = 1684.41 L.K / 282 K

V₂ = 5.97 L

State one type of additional information that could be used to determine if these three species are closely related.
Luda [366]

Answer:

Study the bone structure of limbs.

Explanation:

Study the bone structure of limbs can be used to find out the relatedness and relationship among three species because the pattern of bones structure is similar but the structure is different from one another due to different environmental conditions. This study provides important and useful information whether the three species are closely related or not. If they have similar bone structure than we can say that there are more chances that they are closely related to each other.
