The answer is c.c is the correct answer
scoray [572]3 years ago

Answer: Option (C) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Metals contain valence electrons and these electrons are free to move from one place to another.

Therefore, due to the presence of mobile electrons metals can easily conduct electricity.

Thus, metals are good conductors of heat and electricity because there are free moving atoms in metals that carry both heat and electric current.

What is the rate constant of a first-order reaction that takes 5.50 minutes for the reactant concentration to drop to half of it
bulgar [2K]
For a first order reaction, the half life is inversely proportional to the rate constant. 
The formula is
half life = ln(2)/k = 0.693/k
where k is the rate constant

t = 5.50 minutes

k = ln(2)/5.50 = 0.126 min^-1

Your rate constant is 0.126 min^-1.

How does electronegativity affects the type of intramolecular bond that is formed between atoms
Effectus [21]

Answer:

If the electronegativity difference between bonded atoms are too much high ionic bonds are formed if the electronegativity diference is 0.4 or less than 0.4 non polar covalnet bond formed the difference greater than 0.4 polar covalent bond formed.

Explanation:

Ionic bond:

It is the bond which is formed by the transfer of electron from one atom to the atom of another element.  

Both bonded atoms have very large electronegativity difference. The atom with large electronegativity value accept the electron from other with smaller value of electronegativity.

For example:

Sodium chloride is ionic compound. The electronegativity of chlorine is 3.16 and for sodium is 0.93. There is large difference is present. That's why electron from sodium is transfer to the chlorine. Sodium becomes positive and chlorine becomes negative ion.

Covalent bond:

It is formed by the sharing of electron pair between bonded atoms.  

The atom with larger electronegativity attract the electron pair more towards it self and becomes partial negative while the other atom becomes partial positive.

For example:

In water the electronegativity of oxygen is 3.44 and hydrogen is 2.2. That's why electron pair attracted more towards oxygen, thus oxygen becomes partial negative and hydrogen becomes partial positive.

One part of the cell theory states that all living things are made up of one or more cells. Scientists had to find ways to test
sergejj [24]

Answer:

A population or community research line can be carried out, wherever at a certain point in time, regardless of whether it is a cross-sectional study.

In addition, the people who would be the population to be studied or the object of study might or might not know the cause of the study (blind) while the researcher could be experimentally participatory.

Explanation:

They are prevalence studies, in which the presence of a health condition or state is determined in a well-defined population and in a determined time frame: one day, one week, a particular moment in life, even if it does not temporarily coincide in all the subjects (for example, the blood pressure figures at the time of entering the school or at the beginning of the holidays, the prevalence of diabetes in hospitalized patients on a given day, etc.).

They are like "photographs" of a state of affairs at a given moment. The simultaneous determination of what is understood by exposure and event does not allow defining causality.

which of the following testable questions will provide evidence that elements in the same group have similar properties?
Usimov [2.4K]

The testable question which will provide evidence that elements in the same group have similar properties is valency

<h3>What is the valency?</h3>

In essence, how many electrons are present in their outermost shell.

Valency and Groups in the periodic table, elements are arranged in order of their atomic numbers and hence, the periodic table is a systematic arrangement of elements in an array of vertical columns called Groups and horizontal arrays called Periods.

  • Complete question here:

which of the following testable questions will provide evidence that elements in the same group have similar properties A. Valency B. Orbit C. Group D. Period

Since, the reactive capacities of elements is dependent on the number of electrons on its outermost shell, we can conclude on this note that, Elements in the same group have similar properties.
