Answer:

B. Ionic Compound

Explanation:

An ionic compound is that compound which contains a positively charged ion called CATION and a negatively charged ion called ANION. The cation loses or transfers electrons to the anion, hence, making the former (cation) positive and the latter (anion) negative.

A polyatomic ion is an ion that contains more than one type of atom e.g OH-, NO3²-, CO3²- etc. A polyatomic ion usually has an overall charge formed from the charges of the individual atoms that makes it up. For example, in OH-, the overall charge is -1.

Since a polyatomic ion can have an overall positive or negative charge, it must enter a reaction with another ion that complements it i.e. a negative polyatomic ion will react with a positive ion to neutralize its charge. Hence, this forms an IONIC COMPOUND. This is why most compounds with polyatomic ions are IONIC COMPOUNDS.

For example, CaCO3 is an ionic compound formed when Ca²+ (cation) reacts with the polyatomic anion: CO3²-

What is the density of CO2 at a pressure of 0.0079 atm and 227 K? (These are the approximate atmospheric in Mars)
Strike441 [17]

Answer:

The density is 0.0187 g/L

Explanation:

First thing to do here is to calculate the Volume of 1 mole of CO2 using the ideal gas equation

Mathematically;

PV = nRT

thus V = nRT/P

what we have are;

n = 1 mole

R is the molar has constant = 0.082 L•atm•mol^-1•K^-1

P is the pressure = 0.0079 atm

T is temperature = 227 K

Substituting these values, we have;

V = nRT/P = (1 * 0.082 * 227)/0.0079

V = 2,356.20 dm^3

This means according to the parameters given in the question, the volume of 1 mole of carbon iv oxide is 2,356.20 dm^3

But this is not what we want to calculate

What we want to calculate is the density

Mathematically, we can calculate the density using the formula below;

density = molar mass/molar volume

Kindly recall that the molar mass of carbon iv oxide is 44 g/mol

Thus the density = 44/2356.20 = 0.018674136321195 which is approximately 0.0187 g/L

A solution of NaOH has a concentration of 25.00% by mass. What mass of NaOH is present in 0.250 g of this solution? Use the peri
meriva
The concentration of NaOH is 25.00% by mass, it means that 25.00% of the mass of the solution is of NaOH. Hence:

m_{NaOH}=25.00\%\times m_{solution}\Longrightarrow m_{NaOH}=\dfrac{25}{100}\times 0.250~g\iff\\\\\boxed{m_{NaOH}=0.0625~g}

If the weight of displaced liquid and the weight of an object are the same, the object will:
s344n2d4d5 [400]

Answer:

Float

Explanation:

If the weight of liquid displaced and the weight of an object are the same, the object will float in the liquid.

From Archimedes principle, when an object is immersed in fluid, a force called upthrust supports it and it equal to the weight of the liquid displaced.

When in a liquid, the weight of the liquid displaced is the same as that of the of the object, it will float and not sink.
