Electron flow in the metals.

Explanation:

Metaks may e defined as the substances that has the ability to lose the electrons and gains a positive charge. The metals are lusturous, shiny and shows conductivity.

The conducrtivity of electricity occurs due to the movement of electrons in the metals. The electrons present inside the metal has the ability to move freely in its structure and hence conduct electricity.

<em>Answer:</em>

<em>Metals are good conductors of electricity because of the</em><em> ability of electrons to flow throughout the metal.</em>

<em>Explanation:</em>

<em>In metals, the outer electrons of the atoms belong to a 'cloud' of delocalised electrons. They are no longer firmly held by a specific atom, but instead they can move freely through the lattice of positive metal ions, these factors makes them a good conductor of electricity. Electric current is the flow of electrons in a wire. In metals, the outer electrons of the atoms belong to a 'cloud' of delocalised electrons.

maw [93]

Answer;

Semi-permeability means that only certain molecules are allowed to pass through.

Explanation;

-Semi-permeability is one of the features of a cell membrane, which means that the membrane allows selective movement of materials in and out of the cell; that is only certain molecules can enter or leave the cell.

-For example smaller molecules such water and ions such as potassium and sodium ions are able to leave and enter the cell, while other molecules that are large such as protein molecules can not enter or leave the cell.
