Why is the melting point of a network solid so high? How is this related to what a network solid is?

1 answer:

I believe that the answer to the question provided above is that molecules in solid are compact and are connected. It requires huge energy to move it, thus requires high temperature.
Hope my answer would be a great help for you. If you have more questions feel free to ask here at Brainly.

What happens when you increase the temperature of a reaction?

aalyn [17]

D. More collisions occur and the time required for the reaction decreases
This happens because according to collision theory, when energy (in this case, thermal energy) is applied to particles, they move/vibrate more quickly.

(a)-Use Lewis symbol store present there action that occurs between Ca and F atoms. (b)-What is the chemical formula of the most

Charra [1.4K]

Answer:

(a) The Lewis structure is shown in the image below.

(b) $CaF_2$

(c) Calcium loses 2 electrons to 2 atoms of fluorine and these 2 atoms of fluorine accepts each electron to form ionic bond.

(d) Calcium atom loses electrons.

Explanation:

Calcium is the element of second group and forth period. The electronic configuration of Calcium is - 2, 8, 8, 2 or $1s^22s^22p^63s^23p^64s^2$

There are 2 valence electrons of Calcium.

Fluorine is the element of group 17 and second period. The electronic configuration of the element fluorine is - 2, 7 or $1s^22s^22p^5$

There is 1 valence electron of fluorine.

The Lewis structure is drawn in such a way that the octet of each atom is complete.

Thus, calcium loses 2 electrons to 2 atoms of fluorine and these 2 atoms of fluorine accepts each electron to form ionic bond. This is done in order that the octet of the atoms are complete and they become stable.

Thus, the formula of calcium chloride is $CaF_2$ .

(a) The Lewis structure is shown in the image below.

(b) $CaF_2$

(c) Calcium loses 2 electrons to 2 atoms of fluorine and these 2 atoms of fluorine accepts each electron to form ionic bond.

(d) Calcium atom loses electrons.

What is the pressure of 1.20 moles of SO2 gas in a 4L container at 30 degrees celsius

geniusboy [140]

Let suppose the Gas is acting Ideally, Then According to Ideal Gas Equation,

P V = n R T
Solving for P,
P = n R T / V ----- (1)
Data Given;

Moles = n = 1.20 mol

Volume = V = 4 L

Temperature = T = 30 + 273 = 303 K

Gas Constant = R = 0.08206 atm.L.mol⁻¹.K⁻¹

Putting Values in Eq.1,

P = (1.20 mol × 0.08206 atm.L.mol⁻¹.K⁻¹ × 303 K) ÷ 4 L

P = 7.45 atm
