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-

Answer:

it is because of Dark Matter

Dark Matter, component of the universe whose presence is discerned from its gravitational attraction rather than its luminosity. Dark matter makes up 30.1 percent of the matter-energy composition of the universe; the rest is dark energy (69.4 percent) and “ordinary” visible matter (0.5 percent).

Dark matter is composed of particles that do not absorb, reflect, or emit light, so they cannot be detected by observing electromagnetic radiation. Dark matter is material that cannot be seen directly.

Choose the best answer to complete the statement: Carbon atoms can bond to __________ other atoms.
ra1l [238]
1,2,3, or 4. Generally, carbon likes to make 4 bonds to 4 different atoms. For example, in methane(CH4), Carbon makes 4 bonds to 4 hydrogens. However, Carbon can also make double and triple bonds to atoms. This means that of the 4 bonds, more are used to bond to one thing. For example, in the compound CN, Carbon bonds to hydrogen on one side and triple bonds to Nitrogen on the other. This shows carbon can bond to at 2 atoms as well as 4 at a time. using a one double bond carbon would only bond to 3 atoms. I cant think of an example where carbon only bonds to one other atom without breaking the octet rule, but all the other values can be validated through examples. So, I still think the bottom answer is correct. Hope this helped!
