Determine which set of properties correctly describes copper (Cu)?
Yakvenalex [24]

Answer:

D. Malleable, conducts electricity, high melting point, giant structure, metallic lattice

Explanation:

Copper is a metal with an atomic number of 29. This metal is soft and reddish in color which explains why it is very malleable(beaten to form various shapes without breaking).

All metals are good conductors of electricity including copper which is also a metal. Metals generally are insoluble in water. Copper also has a high melting point which is a characteristic of metals due to their giant structure and metallic lattice which makes it difficult to be broken down.

Why the is ratio of magnesium ions to chloride ions in MgCl2 is 1:2?
Monica [59]
You should read up on Proust's law, better known as the Law of Definite Proportions. This is a chemical law that defines your question more generally, on why the ratio of elements and ions are always fixed.

Basically, this compound Magnesium(II) Chloride is MgCl2 because it has the same number of protons, neutrons, and electrons all the way. This defines the properties of the compound or atom.

STALIN [3.7K]

<u>Answer:</u>

Nitrogen gas be a mineral only, if it is in organic forms.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Most of the forms of organic nitrogen is not be taken by plants, with the exception in the form of small organic molecules. Also plants can promptly take the nitrogen  when it is in other forms like ammonia and nitrate.

The microorganisms  in the soil converts the organic forms of nitrogen to mineral form when they decompose organic matters and  also fresh plant residues. This type of process is called mineralisation.
