This is covalent network type of solid.

For example, silicon dioxide (SiO₂) is covalent network solid with covalent bonding.

Covalent network solid is a chemical compound (or element) in which the atoms are bonded by covalent bonds in a continuous network extending throughout the material.

Silicon(IV) oxide has continuous three-dimensional network of SiO₂ units and diamond has sp3 hybridization.

This solids do not have free electrons so they are good insulators.

They have strong covalent bonds, so they melt at extremely high temperature.

Other examples are quartz, diamond, and silicon carbide.

How much heat is added if .0948g of water is increased in temperature by .728 degrees C?
Verdich [7]

Answer:

0.289J of heat are added

Explanation:

We can relate the change in heat of a substance with its increasing in temperature using the equation:

q = m*ΔT*S

<em>Where Q is change in heat</em>

<em>m is mass of substance (In this case, 0.0948g of water)</em>

<em>ΔT = 0.728°C</em>

<em>S is specific heat (For water, 4.184J/g°C)</em>

Replacing:

q = 0.0948g*0.728°C*4.184J/g°C

q = 0.289J of heat are added

What element behaves MOST like magnesium <br> between Si, S, Sr, Sn
frosja888 [35]

<u><em>Answer</em></u>

  • Sr

<u><em>Explanation</em></u>

  • In periodic table, the elements have almost same properties are present in the same group. As Mg and Sr are present in group II-A, so both behave most likely to each other due to having same valence shell electrons as well.
  • Si and Sn are present in group IV-A which have same behavior but different one from Mg due to different groups.
  • S is present in group VI-A which show different properties from all others one especially from Mg.
