What metal does not require its charge oxidation number specified in the names of ionic compounds it forms?
Calcium
Why is the melting point for ionic compounds higher then the melting point of molecular compounds?
Ionic bonds are stronger than covalent bonds and therefore require more energy to break.
What causes ionic compounds to have high melting point?
Ionic bonds require relatively high energies to be broken compared to the weaker hydrogen bond and van der Waals forces. Ionic compounds will thus have higher melting points than polar and organic compounds of similar molecular weight.
All compounds can be classified as?
Chemical compounds can be classified according to the type of chemical bond that holds them together. They are ionic and covalent.
Which of the following solutions would require the greatest amount of base to be added to bring the solution to neutral pH?
gastric juice at pH 2
Why do plants need atmosphere?
Surface plants require gaseous CO2. Note - seaweed doesn't.
What is the sentence for enclosures?
The horses and the llamas will require separate enclosures.
What metal does not require its charge oxidation number specified in the names of ionic compounds it forms?
Calcium
Why do ionic compounds need at least one metal?
Ionic compounds do not require the presence of a metal, for example ammonium chloride is ionic and does not contain a metallic element. What is true is that the majority of ionic compounds involve at least one metal.
Why is the melting point for ionic compounds higher then the melting point of molecular compounds?
Ionic bonds are stronger than covalent bonds and therefore require more energy to break.
What are three medium waves can travel through?
Not all waves require mediums to propagate.Sound waves can travel through solid, liquid and gaseous mediums, while, electromagnetic waves do not require any medium to travel through.
Is England include in France schengen visa?
no. you are require to obtain separate visa
Why reaction of ionic compounds are very fast in solution?
I would imagine that the bonds are weaker than that of covalent compounds. Therefore, they are more readily reactable and require less activation energy
Why must heterotrophic organisms ingest food?
Because they require organic compounds for growth, unlike autotrophic organisms which produce their own nutrients by absorbing inorganic compounds.
What process do certain prokaryotes use nitrates or sulfates rather than oxygen as the terminal electron acceptor?
"Anaerobic respiration" doesn't require oxygen. True anaerobic respiration involves an electron acceptor other than oxygen. Bacteria are capable of using a wide variety of compounds as terminal electron acceptors in respiration: nitrogenous compounds (such as nitrates and nitrites), sulfur compounds (such as sulfates, sulfites, sulfur dioxide, and elemental sulfur), carbon dioxide, iron compounds, manganese compounds, cobalt compounds, and uranium compounds.

Why do lead compounds require caution in handling and disposal?
They are extremely hazardous to the enviorment and cannot be dumped down the drain
What is the most important inorganic compounds in living things?
Water; all living things require some water.
