Calcium chloride dissociates into more ions than sodium chloride.
Answer:
a little less than 109.5°
Explanation:
SCl2 has four regions of electron density around the central atom of the molecule. This implies that it has a tetrahedral electron domain geometry with an expected bond angle of 109.5° according to valence shell electron pair repulsion theory.
However, there are two lone pair of electrons on the central atom of the molecule which decreases the bond angle a little less than 109.5° owing to repulsion between electron pairs.
Metals have the ability to conduct electricity.
Metals are lustrous, malleable, ductile and are good conductor of heat and electricity.
They conduct electricity because the electrons in metal are delocalized electrons and are free moving electrons so when they gain energy (heat) they vibrate more quickly and can move around, this means that they can pass on the energy more quickly.
