Metals are meleable but graphite is not meleable
metal are sonorous but. graphite is not sonorous

Graphite contains only one property of metal

metal is a good conductor of electricity but its a exception.

Because of all that reasons graphite is not included in metalloid.

How does a chemist count the number of particles in a given number of moles of a substance?

jolli1 [7]

The chemist the count the number of particles (Atoms, Molecules or Formula Unit) in a given number of moles of a substance by using following relationship.

Moles = # of Particles / 6.022 × 10²³

Or,

# of Particles = Moles × 6.022 × 10²³

So, from above relation it is found that 1 mole of any substance contains exactly 6.022 × 10²³ particles. Greater the number of moles greater will be the number of particles.

Equation balancing

meriva

Answer:

For a: The balanced equation is $2S(s)+3O_2(g)\rightarrow 2SO_3(g)$

For c: The balanced equation is $2NaOH(s)+H_2SO_4(aq)\rightarrow Na_2SO_4(aq)+2H_2O(l)$

Explanation:

A balanced chemical equation is one where all the individual atoms are equal on both sides of the reaction. It follows the law of conservation of mass.
