Can anyone (a-level) a student was analysing a carbonate compound, mco3, containing an unknown group 2 metal, m. the student carried out thermal decomposition on 0.730g of the carbonate and measured the volume of gas produced. mco3 (s) mo (s) + co2 (g) the student collected and measured 120cm3 of carbon dioxide. 1 mol of carbon dioxide occupies 24 000 cm3 under these conditions. calculate the molar mass of the group 2 carbonate and hence deduce the identity of the group 2 metal, m.

convalent bond :

is a chemical bond formed by the sharing of electron between 2 atoms.

it is the direct chemical bond between 2 atoms.

in bond formation atoms are involved here.

electrovalent bond:

is a chemical bond defined as electroststic attraction between 2 atoms.

it is the electrostatic attraction between 2 atoms.

in bond formation, ions are involved here.

hope it

we can conclude that the melting point of table salt is above room temperature (it's actually 801 deg c). the melting point of mercury must be below room temperature (- 39 deg c).

the answer is b. dilution
