Mercury is a heavy, silvery-white liquid metal. Compared to other metals, it is a poor conductor of heat, but a fair conductor of electricity. ... Because this configuration strongly resists removal of an electron, mercury behaves similarly to noble gases, which form weak bonds and hence melt at low temperatures.
Covalent network. <span>A solid that is extremely hard, that has a very high melting point, and that will not conduct electricity either as a solid or when molten is held together by a continuous three-dimensional network of covalent bonds. Examples include diamond, quartz (SiO </span><span>2 </span>), and silicon carbide (SiC). The electrons are constrained in pairs to a region on a line between the centers of pairs of atoms.<span>

Answer:
Explanation:
H₂SO₄ is a strong acid, which means that most of it ionizes in aqueous solution.
Since it is a diprotic acid (two hydrogen ions) its ionization occurs in two steps:
- H₂SO₄ (aq) → H⁺(aq) + HSO₄⁻(aq)
- HSO₄⁻ (aq) → H⁺(aq) + SO₄²⁻(aq)
Thus, almost all H₂SO₄ has ionized and its final concentration is almost nothing.
After the first ionization, the conentrations of H⁺(aq) and HSO₄⁻ are equal but by the second ionization more H⁺ ions are produced along with SO₄⁻.
You can show it as one step dissociation, assuming 100% dissociation (given this is a strong acid):
By the stequiometry you can build this table:
H₂SO₄ (aq) → 2H⁺(aq) + SO₄²⁻(aq)
Initial A 0 0
Change - x +2x +x
Equilibrium A - x 2x x
As explained, A - x is very low, and 2x is twice x. Thus,
The rank of the concentrations from highest to lowest is:
CO_2
1:2
32gO(1molO/16gO)=2molO
12gC(1molC/12gC)=1molC
