Answer:

Do not conduct electricity as solids

Explanation:

Salts are held together by electrovalent/ionic bond. Ionic bond involves the transfer of electron(s) from an atom (usually a metal) to a another atom (usually a non-metal). After the transfer, the metallic atom becomes positively charged (cation) while the non-metallic atom becomes negatively charged (anion) after receiving electron(s).

These charged particles carry electric charges when the salt is dissolved in water but do not carry electric charges in there solid form hence cannot conduct electricity in solid form.

What are the units of k in the following rate law?

Ludmilka [50]

Answer:

B. $\frac{1}{M^{2} s }$

Explanation:

The unit for rate is M/s while the unit for each molecule should be M. You can find the unit for k by putting the units for rate and the molecules into the equation

rate= k{X][Y]

M/s= k * $M^{2}$ * $M^{1}$
