A student checked the conductivity of 2 different solids and the results are listed in the table below explain why the students

got these results in terms of principles of chemical bonding your explanation should include a discussion of the specific particles present is fake particles present in each substance and how the behavior of these particles is related to the conductivity of the solid?

Solid copper conducts electricity because of the presence of free electrons. There are no free electrons in CuCl2(g) hence it does not conduct electricity.

Metals are known as conductors of electricity because, in the metallic bond, free electrons are attracted to metal cations by electrostatic forces. These free electrons explains the conductivity of solid metals.

However, when these metals form compounds, ions are present. These ions only conduct electricity in the liquid or aqueous states when the ions are free to move about. In the solid or gaseous state, these ions are not free hence, CuCl2(g) does not conduct electricity.

What is an example of a soultion
Marrrta [24]

Answer:

Did you mean solution??

In chemistry, a solution is considered as a special type of homogeneous mixture composed of two or more substances. In such a mixture, a solute is a substance dissolved in another substance, known as a solvent.

Eg: sweet tea or coffee (sugar added to solution)

     bleach (sodium hypochlorite dissolved in water)

The decomposition of ammonia is: 2 NH3(g) = N2(g) + 3 H2(g). If Kp is 1.5 × 103 at 400°C, what is the partial pressure of ammoni
hjlf

Answer:

A) = 4.7 × 10⁻⁴atm

Explanation:

Given that,

Kp = 1.5*10³ at 400°C

partial pressure pN2 = 0.10 atm

partial pressure pH2 = 0.15 atm

To determine:

Partial pressure pNH3 at equilibrium

The decomposition reaction is:-

2NH3(g) ↔N2(g) + 3H2(g)

Kp = [pH2]³[pN2]/[pNH3]²

pNH3 =√ [(pH2)³(pN2)/Kp]

pNH3 = √(0.15)³(0.10)/1.5*10³ = 4.74*10⁻⁴ atm

K_p = \frac{[pH_2] ^3[pN_2]}{[pNH_3]^2} \\pNH_3 = \sqrt{\frac{(pH_2)^3(pN_2)}{pNH_3} } \\pNH_3 = \sqrt{\frac{(0.15)^3(0.10)}{1.5 \times 10^3} } \\=4.74 \times 10^-^4atm

= 4.7 × 10⁻⁴atm

How many moles of ethane (C2H6) would be needed to react with 62.3 grams of oxygen gas?
Vladimir [108]
Note that it says oxygen "gas"
So you need the atomic mass of oxygen gas

Look at your periodic table, you'll see 15.9994 under oxygen
Oxygen gas has a formula of O2 therefore,
(15.9994) times 2= Oxygen gas atomic mass=31.9988

Mol= Mass/Atomic Mass
=62.3 g/ 31.9988 g/mol = 1.95 mol

now look at the ratio of C2H6 and O2, notice there is an invisible number beside each of them, at that "invisible number" is =1

1 C2H6 + 1 O2 -> products

this means that for 1 mol of C2H6, 1 mol of O2 has to react with it

Thus as we have 1.95 moles of O2, we need 1.95 moles of C2H6
