In the chemical formula for an ionic compound, which item is written first?

Which supports the idea that birds and butterflies both have wings but they do not have a common ancestor with wings? a. the wings are analogous structures that evolved differently and do not have a similar internal structure. b. the wings are homologous structures that evolved differently and do not have a similar internal structure. c. wings of birds are vestigial structures, but the wing structures of bats are not vestigial. d. wings of bats are vestigial structures, but the wing structures of birds are not vestigial

The atomic radius of sodium is 186 pm and of chlorine is 100 pm. the ionic radius for na+ is 102 pm and for cl– is 181 pm. in going from na to cl in period 3, why does the atomic radius decrease while the ionic radius increases? a. the inner electrons in the sodium cation shield its valence electrons more effectively than the inner electrons in the chloride anion do. b. the inner electrons shield the valence electrons more effectively in the chlorine atom than in the chloride anion. c. the outermost electrons in chloride experience a smaller effective nuclear charge than those in the sodium cation do. d. the outermost electrons in chloride experience a larger effective nuclear charge than those in the sodium cation do. e. monatomic ions are bigger than the atoms from which they are formed.

Melting and boiling are endothermic processes. this means that these processes absorb energy from their surroundings in order to occur. use this information and the data you collected in the phase change gizmo to describe what happens to the temperature of water when you boil it, then explain why this result occurs.
