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

Chemistry

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.

__________ could be the formula of an alkene. a. c3h8 b. c2h8 c. c6h6 d. c3h6 e. c17h36
drek231 [11]

The general formula for alkenes is CnH2n, the formula with hydrogen count double the carbon count should be the correct formula for alkene and that is d. C3H6.

What are alkenes?

Alkenes, commonly known as olefins, are organic unsaturated hydrocarbons that have one or more carbon-carbon double bonds in their chemical structure and are composed of carbon and hydrogen atoms.

Alkenes are unsaturated hydrocarbons with a double bond between the carbon atoms. Carbon atoms are connected by at least one double bond. The general formula for alkenes is C n H 2n. Olefin is frequently substituted with alkenes. The word "olefin" comes from the Greek phrase "olefin gas," which denotes the production of oil.

<u>Since, their general formula is CnH2n, the formula with hydrogen count double the carbon count should be the correct formula for alkene and that is d. C3H6.</u>

Which step will decrease the pressure of a gas inside a closed cubical container
Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]
In order to <span>decrease the pressure of a gas inside a closed cubical container, you need to decrease the temperature of the container. The volume of the system is rigid so it means volume is constant. By the ideal gas law, temperature and pressure are directly related. Increasing the temperature, increases the pressure and the opposite to happens.</span>

Answer:

The limiting reagent is the reactant that is completely used up in a reaction, and thus determines when the reaction stops. ... The limiting reagent is the one that is totally consumed; it limits the reaction from continuing because there is none left to react with the in-excess reactant.

Silicon Tetrachloride is reacted with very pure magnesium, producing silicon and magnesium chloride. (What would be the unbalanc
raketka [301]
Pure magnesium's formula would just be Mg because all elements except for 7 nonmetals are just left alone when they are by themselves in a formula. The 7 diatomic elements( means they have to have two of them without another element attached to it aka. a subscript two after it when it's by itself) are hydrogen, nitrogen, oxygen, fluorine, chlorine, bromine, and iodine. An easy way to remember the diatomic seven is that when looking at a periodic table if you trace over them from nitrogen over to fluorine and down to iodine all of those elements are diatomic + hydrogen. 

And your unbalanced and balanced equations are correct.

(sorry I went on a tangent with the diatomic rules hopefully it will help you in the future though)
