6 0

Answer:

Explanation:

Calcium is all around us. The average human contains approximately 1kg of calcium, of which 99% is stored in our bones. It is the 5th most abundant element in the earth's crust, occurring widely as calcium carbonate which is more commonly known as limestone. It is also the fifth most abundant dissolved ion in seawater.

Write the empirical formula of at least four binary ionic compounds that could be formed from the following ions: Ca2+, V5+, Br-
Jet001 [13]

Answer:

CaS, CaBr₂, VBr₅, and V₂S₅.

Explanation:

  • The ionic compound should be neutral; the overall charge of it is equal to zero.
  • Binary ionic compound is composed of two different ions.

<u>Ca²⁺ can combined with either Br⁻ or S²⁻ to form binary ionic compounds.</u>

  • CaS can be formed via combining Ca²⁺ with S²⁻ to form the neutral binary ionic compound CaS.
  • CaBr₂ can be formed via combining 1 mole of Ca²⁺ with 2 moles of Br⁻ to form the neutral binary ionic compound CaBr₂.

<u>V⁵⁺ can combined with either Br⁻ or S²⁻ to form binary ionic compounds.</u>

  • V₂S₅ can be formed via combining 2 moles of V⁵⁺ with 5 moles of S²⁻ to form the neutral binary ionic compound V₂S₅.
  • VBr₅ can be formed via combining 1 mole of V⁵⁺ with 5 moles of Br⁻ to form the neutral binary ionic compound VBr₅.

<em>So, the empirical formula of four binary ionic compounds that could be formed is: CaS, CaBr₂, VBr₅, and V₂S₅.</em>

Which is responsible for the formation of rust on metals?(1 point)
Rainbow [258]

The correct answers about rusting, air pollution and products of water with rock are:

Option A. oxidation

Option D. Pollutants mix with air and water to make acid rain.

Option B. clay minerals and calcium carbonate

<h3>What is rusting?</h3>

Rusting is the process by which a metal especially reacts with oxygen in the atmosphere and water vapor to form a hydrated oxide of the metal known as hydrated iron (iii) oxide. This is known as rust.

The process is an oxidation process; option A.

<h3>How does air pollution impact chemical weathering?</h3>

Air pollution is the presence of substances in air known as pollutants which makes the air impure.

Air pollution impact chemical weathering  as the pollutants mix with air and water to make acid rain which weathers rocks; option D.

<h3>What products are produced when water reacts with sodium in rocks?</h3>

The reaction of water with sodium in rocks result in the formation of clay minerals and calcium carbonate also as limestone, marble or chalk; option B.

In conclusion, the presence of pollutants in air results in acid rain and hence rock weathering.

In addition to canyons,what other kinds of geologic formations might separate similar organisms
serg [7]
The people of Finland, who are secluded to some degree from the rest of the world by water, develop certain diseases due to the lack of genetic material from other ethnicities and races.

Physical barriers prevent fish from one stream from mating with fish from another stream, leading to a less varied gene pool among those fish. As time passes, the fish become unable to successfully mate with other groups.

A mountain range prevents two types of goat from mating, causing the gene pool to become less varied.<span>

What is the theoretical yield of a reaction?
mestny [16]
I think it's D, because theoretical yield is like, the yield you'd get if 100% of the reactants formed to make product. Well that's how I think of it, but it has something to do with limiting reagents and stuff. Sorry this isn't a really detailed explanation.
