Electrons must be able to flow through a material in order for the material to conduct

Chemistry
1 answer:
djverab [1.8K]2 years ago
7 0

The molecular structure of the solids has lower ability to conduct electricity due to tight holding by nucleus.

<h3>Why molecular solids are poor conductors?</h3>

Molecular solids are also poor conductors of electricity because their valence electrons are tightly held by the nuclear charges present in the nucleus while on the other hand, Metals are good electrical conductors in the solid form due to the presence of free electrons that helps in the conduction of electricity.

The equilibrium: 2 NO2(g) \Longleftrightarrow&amp;iff; N2O4(g) has Kc = 4.7 at 100ºC. What is true about the rates of the forwar
Sergeeva-Olga [200]

Answer:

  • Initial: forward rate > reverse rate
  • Equilibrium: forward rate = reverse rate

Explanation:

2NO₂(g) → N₂O₄(g)   Kc=4.7

The definition of <em>equilibrium</em> is when the forward rate and the reverse rate are <em>equal</em>.

Because in the initial state there's only NO₂, there's no possibility for the reverse reaction (from N₂O₄ to NO₂). Thus the forward rate will be larger than the reverse rate.

Please answer ASAP!!
Alenkasestr [34]

Answer:

C.0.28 V  

Explanation:

Using the standard cell potential we can find the standard cell potential for a voltaic cell as follows:

The most positive potential is the potential that will be more easily reduced. The other reaction will be the oxidized one. That means for the reactions:

Cu²⁺ + 2e⁻ → Cu E° = 0.52V

Ag⁺ + 1e⁻ → Ag E° = 0.80V

As the Cu will be oxidized:

Cu → Cu²⁺ + 2e⁻

The cell potential is:

E°Cell = E°cathode(reduced) - E°cathode(oxidized)

E°cell = 0.80V - (0.52V)

E°cell = 1.32V

Right answer is:

<h3>C.0.28 V </h3>

if 26.8g of copper (ll) chloride are dissolved in sufficient water to make 4.00 L of solution, what is the molarity of the solut
artcher [175]

Answer: Molarity of the solution is 4.97 \times 10^{-2} M and water is the solvent.

Explanation:

Given: Mass of solute = 26.8 g

Volume = 4.00 L

Now, moles of copper (II) chloride (molar mass = 134.45 g/mol) are calculated as follows.

No. of moles = \frac{mass}{molar mass}\\= \frac{26.8 g}{134.45 g/mol}\\= 0.199 mol

Molarity is the number of moles of a substance divided by volume of solution in liter.

Therefore, molarity of given solution is calculated as follows.

Molarity = \frac{no. of moles}{Volume (in L)}\\= \frac{0.199 mol}{4.00 L}\\= 0.04975 M\\= 4.97 \times 10^{-2} M

Solvent is defined as a component which is present in higher amount in a solution. Generally, a solvent is present in liquid state but it can also be a solid or gas.

In the given solution, copper (II) chloride is dissolved in water so copper (II) chloride is the solute and water is the solvent.

Thus, we can conclude that molarity of the solution is 4.97 \times 10^{-2} M and water is the solvent.

If you want 2 miles of Silver (Ag) from the reaction below, how many grams of copper should you start with? Reaction: Cu + 2AgNO
RSB [31]

Answer:

You should start with 63.54 grams of copper.

Explanation:

The chemical reactions are processes in which the nature of the substances changes, that is, from some initial substances called reactants, totally different ones called products are obtained.

In the chemical reaction, the formulas of reagents and products appear preceded by numbers (the stoichiometric coefficients) that indicate the proportions according to which the transformation occurs. So you can say that stoichiometry establishes relationships between the molecules or elements that make up the reactants of a chemical equation with the products of said reaction. The relationships that are established are MOLAR relationships between the compounds or elements that make up the chemical equation: always in MOLES.

The stoichiometric coefficients of a chemical equation are due to the fact that the atoms present before the reaction must be the same after the reaction, although they will have been rearranged to produce new substances.

If you want 2 moles of silver (Ag), for stoichiometry of the reaction you need a moles of copper Cu. Being the molar mass of copper Cu 63.54 g / mole, then:

1 mole*63.54 g/mole= 63.54 g

<u><em> You should start with 63.54 grams of copper.</em></u>
