Why are ionic solids poor conductors of electricity

Chemistry
1 answer:
marshall27 [118]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Ionic compounds don't conduct electricity very well because the charge carriers can't move through the crystal. They can conduct heat because the kinetic energy itself is the "heat carrier”.

Hope this helps :)

Fluorine (F) has seven electrons in its outermost shell. Fluorine _____.
Ira Lisetskai [31]
2. F is non-metal, because it has seven electrons (more that 3)
3.It <span>fills its shell by gaining one electron, because it is easier to gain 1 e⁻ than to loose 7 e⁻.
4. It </span><span>becomes a negatively charged ion, because atom of F is neutral, it has "0" charge, and it takes one negatively charged electron(-1). (0 +(-1)= -1)</span>

The enthalpy of a pure liquid at 75oC is 100 J/mol. The enthalpy of the pure vapor of that substance at 75oC is 1000 J/mol. What
pentagon [3]

Answer:

900 J/mol

Explanation:

Data provided:

Enthalpy of the pure liquid at 75° C = 100 J/mol

Enthalpy of the pure vapor at 75° C = 1000 J/mol

Now,

the heat of vaporization is the the change in enthalpy from the liquid state to the vapor stage.

Thus, mathematically,

The heat of vaporization at 75° C

=  Enthalpy of the pure vapor at 75° C - Enthalpy of the pure liquid at 75° C

on substituting the values, we get

The heat of vaporization at 75° C = 1000 J/mol - 100 J/mol

or

The heat of vaporization at 75° C = 900 J/mol
