Answer:
14.57g
Explanation:
Given parameters:
Mass of dish + ball = 15.6g
Initial volume of water in the cylinder = 26.7mL
Final volume of water in the cylinder = 38.9mL
Mass of dish = ?
Unknown
Mass of the ball = ?
Solution;
Since the mass of ball and dish is 15.6g,
Mass of the ball =Mass of ball + dish - mass of the dish
Insert the parameters and solve;
Mass of the ball = 15.6g - 1.03g = 14.57g
<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>
Cations are much smaller than their corresponding parent
<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
- Parent atom has more electrons and thus the effective nuclear charge on each electron is less.
- When a cation is formed electron(s) is/are lost. Thus the effective nuclear charge or simply put, the attraction of the nucleus towards the electrons increases. Therefore, due to greater pull, the nucleus pulls the shells towards it, there by reducing the size, which makes cations smaller than their corresponding parent.
LiF or lithium fluoride is the non covalent molecule or ionic compound.
Option 3.
<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>
Covalent molecules are those molecules which do have actual bonds between the atoms present in the molecule by sharing of the electrons. But in ionic molecules, there's no actual bonds between the atoms, but the oppositely charged ions are attracted towards each other by means of electrostatic force of attraction.
The molecules that are formed by the atoms with high electronegativity and electropositivity are actually ionic because the atoms with high electronegativity are able to actually gain electron readily and the atoms with high electropositivity are actually ready to give the electrons to the electronegative elements.
Lithium is highly electropositive and fluoride is highly electronegative. So they establish an ionic bond. But other molecules like fluorine molecule has both the electronegative elements, Carbon monoxide has carbon which isn't electropositive highly, and ammonia has hydrogen which isn't electropositive.
So lithium fluoride is the ionic compound.
