Answer: The correct answer is "metalloid".

Explanation:

Metal is the material which can conduct electricity as it contains free electrons. It is good conductor of electricity. For example, copper, silver.

Metal can be drawn into wires. This property of material is called ductile.

Metal can be beaten into sheets. This property of material is called malleable.

Non metal is the material which cannot conduct electricity as it does not contain free electrons. They are poor conductor of electricity. For example, oxygen.

Metalloid: It has properties of both metals and non metal. It is electrical conductor. For example, semiconductor- silicon and germanium. But they cannot be pulled into wires.

Therefore, a material you are testing conducts electricity but cannot be pulled into wires. It is most likely a metalloid.

1. When does raising the temperature of a gas increase its pressure? when volume is increased and the number of particles is con

Neporo4naja [7]

Answer:

when volume and the number of particles are constant

Explanation:

Gay Lussac law states that when the volume of an ideal gas is kept constant, the pressure of the gas is directly proportional to the absolute temperature of the gas.

Mathematically, Gay Lussac's law is given by;

$PT = K$

$\frac{P1}{T1} = \frac{P_{2}}{T_{2}}$

The ideal gas law is the equation PV = nRT

Where;

P is the pressure.

V is the volume.

n is the number of moles of substance.

R is the ideal gas constant.

T is the temperature.

Generally, raising the temperature of an ideal gas would increase its pressure when volume and the number of particles are constant.

This ultimately implies that, when volume and the number of particles are held constant, there would be a linear relationship between the temperature and pressure of a gas i.e temperature would be directly proportional to the pressure of the gas. Thus, an increase in the temperature of the gas would cause an increase in the pressure of the gas at constant volume and number of particles.

What is the electrical force between q2 and q3? recall that k = 8.99 × 109 n•meters squared over coulombs squared.. 1.0 × 1011 n

max2010maxim [7]

The magnitude of the electrical force between q2 and q3 is given as a ratio between the product of their charges and the square of the distance of separation.

<h3>What is the magnitude of electrical forces between two charges?</h3>

The magnitude of the electrical force between two charges refers to the attractive or repulsive forces that exists between two charges separated by a given distance in an electric field.

The magnitude of the electrical force, F between the two charges q2 and q3 is given be my the formula below

$F = \frac{K \times q_2 \times q_3}{d^{2}}$

Therefore, the magnitude of the electrical force between q2 and q3 is given as a ratio between the product of their charges and the square of the distance of separation.
