Explain why materials with metallic lattice structures can be used to make wires and connections that conduct electricity in ele
kogti [31]
<span>All metals have similar properties BUT, there can be wide variations in melting point, boiling point, density, electrical conductivity and physical strength.<span>To explain the physical properties of metals like iron or sodium we need a more sophisticated picture than a simple particle model of atoms all lined up in close packed rows and layers, though this picture is correctly described as another example of a giant lattice held together by metallic bonding.</span><span>A giant metallic lattice – the <span>crystal lattice of metals consists of ions (NOT atoms) </span>surrounded by a 'sea of electrons' that form the giant lattice (2D diagram above right).</span><span>The outer electrons (–) from the original metal atoms are free to move around between the positive metal ions formed (+).</span><span>These 'free' or 'delocalised' electrons from the outer shell of the metal atoms are the 'electronic glue' holding the particles together.</span><span>There is a strong electrical force of attraction between these <span>free electrons </span>(mobile electrons or 'sea' of delocalised electrons)<span> (–)</span> and the 'immobile' positive metal ions (+) that form the giant lattice and this is the metallic bond. The attractive force acts in all directions.</span><span>Metallic bonding is not directional like covalent bonding, it is like ionic bonding in the sense that the force of attraction between the positive metal ions and the mobile electrons acts in every direction about the fixed (immobile) metal ions of the metal crystal lattice, but in ionic lattices none of the ions are mobile. a big difference between a metal bond and an ionic bond.</span><span>Metals can become weakened when repeatedly stressed and strained.<span><span>This can lead to faults developing in the metal structure called 'metal fatigue' or 'stress fractures'.</span><span>If the metal fatigue is significant it can lead to the collapse of a metal structure.</span></span></span></span>

Construction crews sometimes use this reaction for welding underwater structures:
meriva

Answer:

5 moles of iron formed

Explanation:

Given data:

Moles of iron formed = ?

Moles of iron oxide react = 2.50 mol

Solution:

Chemical equation:

Fe₂O₃ + 2Al     →     Al₂O₃ + 2Fe

Now we will compare the moles of iron with iron oxide.

                  Fe₂O₃        :           Fe

                      1             ;            2

                  2.50          :          2×2.50 = 5 mol

Which of the following statements are correct? Rewrite the incorrect statements to correct them.
Mariana [72]
A) true
b) false  The atomic mass is never less than the atomic number.
c) this one is a bit tricky.  For hydrogen, the atomic mass can equal the atomic number IF you are rounding the mass to the nearest whole number. That only works for hydrogen, though
d) false  The larger the element, the more neutrons that are needed to keep the nucleus stable.
e) true
f) true

Plz help me i swear will mark you brainiest :(
vladimir1956 [14]

Answer:

C. the relative molecular mass of the compound

Explanation:

Like molecular formulas, empirical formulas are not unique and can describe a number of different chemical structures or isomers. <u>To determine an empirical formula, the relative molecular mass of the composition of its elements</u> can be used to mathematically determine their ratio.
