Explain, in terms of structure and bonding, why iron (a metal) has higher melting point than sodium chloride (an ionic compound)

.
Chemistry
1 answer:
Liula [17]2 years ago
7 0

Answer:

As metals are giant lattice structures, the number of electrostatic forces to be broken is extremely large

Explanation:

This means that the melting point and boiling point of metals are more similar to those for ionic compounds than for covalent substances.

Coal, which is primarily carbon, can be converted to natural gas, primarily CH4, by the following exothermic reaction: C(s)+2H2(
LuckyWell [14K]

Answer:

A. The reaction will proceed forward forming more CH4

B. The reaction will proceed forward forming more CH4

C. Since the reaction is exothermic, raising the temperature will cause the reaction to proceed backward, thus forming C and H2.

D. Lowering the volume makes the gas particles to be more close together thereby enhancing their collisions leading to reaction. Therefore the reaction will proceed forward forming more CH4

E. Catalyst only reduce the activation energy so the reaction can proceed faster. The reaction will proceed forward forming.

F. The following will favour CH4 at equilibrium

i. Catalyst to the reaction mixture,

ii. Both adding more H2 to the reaction mixture and lowering the volume of the reaction mixture

iii. Adding more C to the reaction mixture.

Which element will have a greater chance of a momentary dipole neon or krypton?
djverab [1.8K]
_Brainliest if helped!

Neon, as it is of smaller size.  U can take the dipole strength as proportional to Charge/Radius  , they have "same charge" but different radius.
