I believe the answer is: Protons and Neutrons
Protons weigh 1 amu while neutrons also weigh 1 amu. I’m not sure if they are talking about how many there is.

Water is known as the universal solvent. One reason water makes a good solvent is because it is composed of polar molecules. Wha

Flauer [41]

Answer: Option (C) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

A water molecule is made up of two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom. Its molecular formula is $H_{2}O$ .

It is known that hydrogen is electropositive in nature whereas oxygen is electronegative in nature. Therefore, oxygen will pull the electron of hydrogen towards itself as a result, there will be formation of partial positive charge on hydrogen and partial negative charge on oxygen atom.

Thus, the water molecule becomes polar. So, we can conclude that water molecule is a polar molecule because water molecules have a positive charge on one end and a negative charge on the other.

A brick has a mass of 4.0 kg and the Earth has a mass of 6.0 × 1027 g. Use this information to answer the questions below. Be su

Vedmedyk [2.9K]

Answer:

a) $2.4\times 10^{24} kg$ is the mass of 1 mole of bricks.

b) $2.5\times 10^3$ moles of bricks have a mass equal to the mass of the Earth.

Explanation:

a) Mass of brick = 4.0 kg

1 mole = $N_A=6.022\times 10^{23}$ particles/ atoms/molecules

Mass of $N_A$ bricks :

$=6.022\times 10^{23}\times 4.0 kg=2.4088\times 10^{24} kg\approx 2.4\times 10^{24} kg$

$2.4\times 10^{24} kg$ is the mass of 1 mole of bricks.

b)

Mass of the Earth = M = $6.0\times 10^{27} kg$

Mass of 1 mole of brick = m= $2.4\times 10^{24} kg$

Let the moles of brick with equal mass of the Earth be x.

$m\times x=M$

$x=\frac{M}{m}=\frac{6.0\times 10^{27}kg}{2.4\times 10^{24} kg}=2.5\times 10^3$

$2.5\times 10^3$ moles of bricks have a mass equal to the mass of the Earth.

Magnesium oxide is an ionic compound with a very high melting point and which requires a large amount of energy for melting.

<h3>What are ionic compounds?</h3>

Ionic compounds are compounds which are formed between oppositely charged ions which are held together by electrostatic forces of attraction between the oppositely charged ions.

Ionic compounds are formed when metal atoms donate electrons to non-metals atoms to form ions.

Magnesium oxide is an ionic compound.

The nature of bonding is ionic bonding.

It has a crystalline lattice structure.

The forces of attraction is electrostatic forces of attraction.

It has a high melting point of 2,852 °C, and thus requires a large amount of energy go melting to occur.

Therefore, magnesium oxide is an ionic compound which requires a large amount of energy for melting.
