electrostatic force

Explanation:

In ionic bonds one atom is positively charged (the atom that gives its electrons), and the other atom is negatively charged (the atom that receives the electrons); therefore, it is the opposite charge of the ions that attracts them to one another and holds them together with electrostatic force.

The monatomic ions of Groups 1A(1) and 7A(17) are all singly charged. In what major way do they differ? Why?

insens350 [35]

Answer: Group 1 ions are known as cations and Group 17 ions are known as anions.

Explanation:

Ions are formed when an atom looses or gains electrons.

If an atom gains electrons, it leads to the formation of negative ions known as anions. For Example: Fluorine is a Group 17 element which gains 1 electron to form $F^-$ ions.

If an atom looses electrons, it leads to the formation of positive ions known as cations. For Example: Sodium is a Group 1 element which looses 1 electron to form $Na^+$ ions.

Hence, group 1 ions are known as cations and Group 17 ions are known as anions.

That's just the tip of the iceberg" is a popular expression you may have heard. It means that what you can see is only a small p

puteri [66]

Answer:

B 1.23 g/cc

Explanation:
For something to float on seawater, the density must be less than 1.03 g/mL. If the object sinks, the density is greater than 1.03 g/mL.

Let’s examine the answer choices. Keep in mind, the ice berg is mostly below the water level.

A. 0.88 g/cc
This is less than 1.03 g/cc, which would result in floating.

B. 1.23 g/cc
This is the best answer choice. The iceberg is mostly beneath the water, but some of it is exposed. The density is greater than 1.03 g/mL, but not so much greater that it would immediately sink.

C. 0.23 g/cc
This is less than 1.03 g/cc, which would produce floating.

D. 4.14 g/cc
This is much greater than 1.03 g/cc and the result would be sinking.
