An acid is a substance which releases hydrogen ions (protons) when added to water. pH values of less than 7 are considered acidic, with 1 indicating it is a strong acid.

Chlorine is in Group 7 of the periodic table. Therefore a chlorine atom has 7 electrons in its outer shell. this atom needs one more electron to form an ion with a full outer shell. Hence the ion formed w...

Polymerisation is defined as the process of bringing individual molecules, called monomers, together to form chains of these molecules called polymers. When this process is done with molecules containing ...

Number of atoms
Ca x1 => 40x 1= 40
C x 1 => 12x1 = 12
O x 3= 16 x 3= 48CaCO3
RMM= 40 + 12 + 48= 100

A covalent bond in an intramolecular bond which occurs when a pair of electrons is shared between two elements, usually two non-metals. The electrons shared are in the outer shell of the atom of each elem...
