18.The octet rule tells us that in every chemical
reactions, elements will either gain or lose electrons to attain the noble gas electron
configuration. This stable<span> electron configuration is known as the octet configuration
since it is composed of 8 valence. Oxygen’s electron configuration is 1s2 2s2
2p4. So when</span> oxygen reacts with
other elements to form compounds, it completes the octet configuration by
taking 2 electrons from the element
it reacts with
19. Actually pure metals are made up not of
metal atoms but rather of closely packed cations (positively charge particles).
These cations are then surrounded by a pack of mobile valence electrons which
drift from one part of the metal<span> to
another. This is called metallic bond.</span>
20. This is the
energy which is needed to break a single bond. When the dissociation energy is
large, this means that the compound is more stable. Since carbon to carbon
bonds have high dissociation energy, therefore they are not very reactive.
21. Network solids are type of solids
in which the atoms are covalently bonded to one another, so they are very
stable. It takes higher temperature to melt them because breaking these
covalent bonds required greater energy. Some examples are:
- Diamond
<span>-Silicon Carbide</span>
Answer:
Cu(s) in Cu(NO₃)₂(aq)
Explanation:
The standard reduction potential (E°) is the energy necessary to reduce the atom in a redox reaction. When an atom reduces it gains electrons from other than oxides. As higher is E°, easily it will reduce. The substance that reduces is at the cathode of a cell, where the electrons go to, and the other that oxides are at the anode of the cell.
The standard reduction potentials from Al(s) and Cu(s) are, respectively, -1.66V and +0.15V, so the half-cell of Cu(s) in Cu(NO₃)₂(aq) is the cathode.
