Oh wait. I figured it out. You look at charges, not the EN difference for this part. So, AlN would be the answer.

Homework Statement Which has the strongest ionic bond? Cs2Se AlN CaI2 Kbr Homework Equations Look at electronegativities The Attempt at a Solution I looked at electronegativities and found the differences. The largest difference was KBr. But apparently, that was wrong. See EN differences...

Thank you so much. I figured it out. They wanted me to look as phosphoric acid and calcium phosphate, both as insoluble. Thanks again!

Homework Statement Find the total ionic (balanced) equation of the reaction of calcium hydroxide and phosphoric acid in aqueous solution. Homework Equations Solubility rules The Attempt at a Solution First, I balanced the reaction. 3Ca(OH)2 + 2H3PO4 --> Ca3(PO4)2 + 6H2O The...

ok i will talk to my professor about it. thank you so much for your help. i appreciate it.

does it have something to do with it being a binary molecular compound?

ohhh i understand. thank you so i know you said that you didnt know about the n2s5.. but since it also doesn't dissociate, it it also 0 ions? does that make sense or no? or would it be 2 ions for the n2 and s8? i don't really know, actually.

ohh right. yes, i was thinking of it wrong. but if i have something like 2s. then l= 0, and ml is also 0, right? so there's only 1 possible ml value there, so according to the original question, in a regular universe the max electrons is 2, so in this alternate universe, it would also be 2?

so i still don't understand HBr would have only 1 ion then? or none?

dissociation in aq solution. but how does that help me see the HBr? its a gas so it's not dissociating right?

I don't follow this logic. For example, if it was 3p insetead of 2p, m ℓ would be -2, -1, 0, 1, 2 in normal universe. This would mean the max is 10, which is not true. The max is still 6.

But i don't understand. Does each m ℓ value correspond to 2 electrons? Like in a normal universe?

H+ and I- so the answer to that one is 2 ions, right? But what I'm confused on is HBr(g). Why wouldn't that also be 2 ions?

Homework Statement How many ions are present in 1 formula unit of HI(aq)? HBr(g)? N2S5? Homework Equations These two questions have the same concept, I believe. I went the simple way and thought the answer was 2 for both of them, but apparently that was wrong. Can someone show me how to...

Homework Statement In a universe different from ours, the laws of quantum mechanics are the same as ours with one small change. In this different universe the m ℓ quantum number obeys this rule. mℓ = (-ℓ-1), (-ℓ),..,0,...(ℓ), (ℓ+1) In this different universe, what is the maximum number...
