Answer:
(a) Covalent bond. NF₃ (nitrogen trifluoride)
(b) Ionic bond. LiCl (lithium chloride)
Explanation:
<em>(a) N and F</em>
Nitrogen and fluorine are nonmetals, with high and similar electronegativities, so they form covalent bonds, in which they share pairs of electrons to complete the octet in their valence shell. N has 5 valence electrons so it will form 3 covalent bonds while each Cl has 7 valence electrons so it will form 1 covalent bond. As a result, the empirical formula is NF₃ (nitrogen trifluoride).
<em>(b) Li and Cl</em>
Lithium is a metal and Chlorine is a nonmetal. They have different electronegativities so they form an ionic bond, in which Cl gains 1 electron (7 valence e⁻) and Li loses 1 electron (1 valence e⁻). The empirical formula is LiCl (lithium chloride).
Answer:
Plants will absorb water through their roots and release water as vapor into the air through these stomata. To survive in drought conditions, plants need to decrease transpiration to limit their water loss. Some plants that live in dry conditions have evolved to have smaller leaves and therefore fewer stomata.

They both hurt and they both burn lol
they will each create a small burn on your skin if they touch you sometimes visible sometimes not. but both should burn about the same just one is water one is fire
The answer is never because there's no electricity
Answer:
23.8g of sodium phosphate are formed
Explanation:
Based on the reaction of sodium, Na, with phosphoric acid, H₃PO₄:
3Na + H₃PO₄ → Na₃PO₄ + 3/2 H₂
<em>3 moles of sodium produce 1 mole of sodium phosphate</em>
<em />
To solve this question we must find the moles of sodium in 10g. Using the chemical reaction we can find the moles -And the mass- of sodium phosphate produced, as follows:
<em>Moles Na -Molar mass: 22.99g/mol-</em>
10g * (1mol / 22.99g) = 0.435 moles Na
<em>Moles Na₃PO₄:</em>
0.435 moles Na * (1mol Na₃PO₄ / 3mol Na) = 0.145 moles Na₃PO₄
<em>Mass Na₃PO₄ -Molar mass: 163.94g/mol-</em>
0.145 moles Na₃PO₄ * (163.94g/mol) =
<h3>23.8g of sodium phosphate are formed</h3>
