If a substance is ionic, then it likely will what?

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: There are a number of possibilities for the answer to this question, so I will address a few only:
1. Many ionic substances will dissolve completely in water to form an aqueous solution of cations and anions; this solution will conduct electricity. 
2. The substance will have a slightly lower melting point than a mid-level covalent network solid. 
3. The substance will certainly not conduct electricity as a solid.

What is the product(s) in this combination reaction?
MgO + CO2

Answers

This is a synthetic reaction:
Mg O + C O2 → Mg C O3
The product is Magnesium Carbonate.

Answer : The product formed in the combination reaction is, magnesium carbonate, (MgCO_3)

Explanation :

Combination reaction : It is a chemical reaction in which multiple substances or reactants combine to form a single product.

The balanced chemical reaction will be,

MgO+CO_2\rightarrow MgCO_3

This reaction is a combination reaction in which the magnesium oxide react with the carbon dioxide to give magnesium carbonate as a product.

Hence, the product formed in the combination reaction is, magnesium carbonate, (MgCO_3)

How many grams of calcium phosphate can be produced when 89.3 grams of calcium chloride reacts with excess sodium phosphate? Unbalanced equation: CaCl2 + Na3PO4 → NaCl + Ca3(PO4)2

Show, or explain, all of your work along with the final answer.

Answers

 The grams  of calcium phosphate  that can be  produced when  89.3  grams  of calcium chloride  reacted  with   excess  sodium phosphate is

     83.08  grams  of calcium phosphate

   calculation

Step 1: write a balanced chemical equation

3CaCl₂  + 2Na₃Po₄ →6NaCl + Ca₃(PO₄)₂

step 2: find the moles of CaCl₂

moles  = mass÷  molar mass

from periodic table the molar mass  of CaCl₂ = 40 +( 2 x 35.5) =111 g/mol

moles = 89.3 g÷111 g/mol = 0.805  moles

Step 3: use the  mole ratio to determine the moles of Ca₃(PO₄)₂

CaCl₂: Ca₃(PO₄)₂  is  3:1 therefore the  moles of Ca₃(PO₄)₂ =0.805  x 1/3 =0.268  moles

Step 4: find mass  of Ca₃(PO₄)₂

mass = moles x  molar mass

from periodic table the molar mass of Ca₃(PO₄)₂ = (40 x3) +[ 31 +(16 x4)]2 =310 g/mol

mass is therefore =0.268  moles x 310 g/mol =83.08 grams


Interstellar dust particles help cool the nebular cloud by _____.slowing particles down
allowing particles to collect
clumping particles together
attracting the heat of the nebular cloud

Answers

Answer: Attracting the heat of the nebular cloud

Heat is lessened by interstellar dust through attraction of heat in the gas cloud. The nebular cloud’s heat, coming from radiation emitted by stars, is indirectly cooled down by dust through ionization and beams it towards space.

Which of the following elements is stable?a. Boron, atomic number 5
b. Carbon, atomic number 6
c. Neon, atomic number 10
d. Fluorine, atomic number 9

Answers

Answer:

Neon, atomic number 10, is stable.

Explanation:

Valencia electrons are the electrons found in the last electronic layer (called valence orbitals). These electrons are what determine the ability of the atom to form bonds. When an element joins another, it does so through its valence electrons.

The noble gases include the elements of group 18 of the periodic table. The noble gases are characterized by their very low chemical reactivity because they are very stable. This is because they have the full valence layer (complying with the octet rule, that is, they have 8 electrons at their last energy level, with the exception of helium that has 2 electrons), causing them to have a low tendency to capture or release electrons . That is why they are also called inert gases.

The Neon, whose atomic number is 10, belongs to the group of noble gases. So this element is stable.


Neon is the most stable because it has 8 valence electrons. when an element has full number of valence electrons, they become stable.
