Question

1. cations have positive charges. anions have negative charges. what force draws the two together? options: magnetic interaction, ionic attraction, electromagnetic interaction, electrostatic attraction 20. substance \m\ is a blue, brittle solid. substance

\ is a colorless, flammable gas. what can we predict about the compound created when \m\ and
\ form a chemical bond? options: it will be a liquid, since \m\ is a solid and
\ is a gas., it will be blue, since \m\ is blue and
\ is colorless., it will probably be flammable, since
\ is flammable., theres no way to tell based on the information given.

Explanation:

1. Cations with positive charges and anions with negative charges are attracted by electrostatic forces. Electrostatic interaction is the force between charged particles. Magnetic interaction involves magnetic - related forces, ionic interaction is a broader term but electrostatic is the specific force here, and electromagnetic interaction is a more general concept that includes light and other electromagnetic phenomena.
2. When two substances form a chemical bond, the properties of the resulting compound cannot be simply predicted by the physical properties (like color and state) of the individual substances. Just because one substance is flammable doesn't mean the compound will be flammable. There are many factors involved in determining the properties of a compound formed by a chemical reaction, so there's no way to tell based on the given information.

Answer:

1. D. Electrostatic attraction
2. D. There's no way to tell based on the information given
