I need some help from you Chemistry wizzes out there, I need examples of Metallic Bonds, Covalent Bonds and Ionic Bonds due to me being useless at the subject and can't figure them out for myself.

 

P.S. The more, the better.

 

some for covalent bonding:

 

iron oxide, sodium chloride, nickel bromide, potassium nitrate (?), potassium permanganate, silver iodide, magnesium sulphide, lithium fluoride

 

ionic: water, various hydrocarbons ( methane, propane, pentane, octene, cyclobutane)

 

 

Not so sure about the metallic bonds though - go to google!

If Im not mistake. :confused:

 

Thanks Letty, and cheers for trying anyway Viper but that wasn't what I wanted. :smile:

Umm... water and hydrocarbons are covalently bonded. Wait, now I look at it, I think you've got ionic and covalent the wrong way round (and yes, potassium nitrate is a white ionic solid).

 

So you can use Letty's covalent examples for ionic, and for covalent, you can go for water or pretty much any organic molecule, ranging from hydrocarbons to arenes to proteins.

 

As for metallic bonding, go for any metal (left of the staircase on the periodic table)- platinum, calcium, mercury, caesium, iron, aluminium etc.

You integrated the 3sqrt3 wrongly. It's a constant, so it becomes (3 sqrt 3)x, and not 2/3 * 3 sqrt 3.

 

The real answer is .5x^2 + 5x + (3 sqrt 3)x

I need to find information for a spanish talk about the most popular stuff on different media. I tried googling and stuff, including google.es, but i just get lost. Anyone know any sites or helpful links for where i should look to find like, the most popular tv programs in Spain?

 

Thanks

always the little ones that stump meh :heh:

 

Q> Express 0.026 reoccuring as a fraction

i tried some have assed trail and error method as well as some odd triangles, but i cant seem to get it :blank:

 

tis onli a little two marker nehow

Posted
surely he meant 0.026 recurring, meaning 0.026026026026.

 

Is there a way to put it into a fraction with 0.0262626262..?

Yes, any repeating sequence of numbers can be expressed as a fraction.

 

And he may have meant 0.026666666... as well.

i was meant 0.0(recurring)2(non recurring)6(recurring)

 

 

so you mean

 

0.000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000...2666666666666666666666666666666666666666666666666666666666666666666666?

 

Is that even possible?

Can you do it with dots? I'm still not sure what you mean.

 

Or alternative, tell me the number it is:

 

1. 0.026666666...

2. 0.026262626...

3. 0.026026026...

4. 0.026060606...

 

Unless, of course, it's something else entirely.

 

so you mean

 

0.000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000...2666666666666666666666666666666666666666666666666666666666666666666666?

 

Is that even possible?

No.

You mention you want the house finished by Sept 1st at the latest.

 

The contractor makes a statement in reference to the deadline

"mid-august" if he was given the job.

 

The statement was made on the 3rd April whereas the contract was signed on the 4th April.

 

Q. If the statement by the contractor was a term of contract, would it be considered to be a condition or a warranty? [5 marks]

0.026060606060...

 

= 0.02 + 0.0060606060...

 

= 2/100 + 0.01(0.60606060...)

 

So lets deal with the 0.60606060...

 

0.60606060... = x

 

100x = 60.60606060...

 

99x = 60

 

x = 60/99 = 20/33

 

Thus:

 

0.026060606060...

 

= 2/100 + 0.01(20/33)

 

= (2 + 20/33)/100

 

= (86/33)/100

 

= 86/3300

 

= 43/1650

 

Wow, never had to do that before.

Easy but useless, everything should be in fractions all the time, until the last step. There should never be any need to ever convert from a decimal to fraction.

 

Never said it was useful. But it's an easy few marks.

Yeah, and everyone should use vulgar fractions. Why do they even teach things like 4 and 2/3, when you can say 14/3?

I want to do exams where i get marks from converting decimals to fractions :(

Yes, me too. I've finished double maths A-level now, but I'll have some more maths to do at university.
