Which of the following is a typical property of an ionic compound

Physics

Yanka [14]3 years ago

The answer is C.

Ionic compounds are those that bring together anions and cations bonded together by ionic bonds. The electrostatic forces of the different charges are significant in the bonds that make them strong hence require high energy to break them (high melting point).  Due to the regular structure of ionic compound that tend to form lattices in solid form, when struck, they shatter along the lines of weakness of the lattice.

<span>Ionic solids are rigid because the multiple interactions between oppositely charged ions hold the charged particles in relatively fixed positions.</span>

Electrical conductivity depends on ions being able to move freely. The conduction of heat depends partly on the movement of electrons in a substance. Electric charge is "locked" in the lattice positions of the ions in the solids. This means there is poor mobility of charges and poor conductivity of electricity and heat.








<span>Ionic solids are brittle and hard because the electrostatic attractions in the solid again hold the ions in definite positions. The electrostatic attractions must be overcome to move the ions. When the ions in the solid are shifted by some very strong force the positions of ions shift so that like charged ions are close together. This results in strong repulsions and the like charged ions move apart. The solid shatters and does not simply deform like a metal. Try crushing a few grains of salt in the bowl of a spoon with another spoon. The particles do not deform, they shatter.Ionic solids melt when the ions are heated and have enough energy to slide past one another. They are mobile and can act to carry electrical charge through the liquid. This explains why a molten ionic substance conducts electricity, but a solid ionic material doesn't. The ions move through the liquid to carry charge from one place to another.The dissolving process is like a tug of war. Soluble ionic substances are ripped apart by the solvent when the solid is dissolved. The solvent pulls the ions out of the solid and breaks the forces holding the crystal together. The solvent isolates the ions in an envelope of solvent particles. The ions are free to move and carry electric charge through the solution.Nonsoluble ionic solids are held together so tightly that the ions cannot be pulled out of the lattice by the solvent. The attractive forces in the solid are stronger than the attractions between the solvent and the ions. The solvent can't pull the ions out of the crystal.</span>

9. Since current is the rate at which charge is flowing, if the current in the circuit decreases, what does that mean about the
TiliK225 [7]

Answer:

Electric current is defined as the rate of flow of electric charge in a circuit from point one point to another. This is carried by electrically charged particles within the circuit. Current is represented by the symbol I and its unit measured in Amperes. It is therefore related to the voltage and resistance of the circuit. If the current in the circuit reduces, the rate at which the charge and current on the capacitor reduces also proportionally in an exponential manner.

Explanation:

Since a decrease in the flow of current in the circuit is observed, the implication for the rate at which the charge and voltage on the capacitor is also an exponential decrease in the rate of flow with time. This is because the electric current is directly proportional to the electric charge and the time.

Special relativity can be used to study an object in which frame of reference?
Tresset [83]
Special relativity led the path for general relativity; special relativity is in a sense a special application of the rules of general relativity. While general relativity is in position to tackle all of these problems, special relativity can tackle only problems in inertial frames. Inertial frame means that the frame of reference is inot accelerating. So, we disqualify answers A and D. However, remember that moving in a circle means that there is an acceleration, the centrifugal one, even if the speed does not change. Hence C is also incorrect.
The correct answer is B, since if there is no change in velocity, the frame does not accelerate and it is inertial.

17. Which of the following is the closest weight in newtons of a 7.0-kilogram
marusya05 [52]

Weight = (mass) x (gravity)

Weight = (7.0 kg) x (gravity)

On Earth, where (gravity) is roughly 10 N/kg . . .

Weight = (7.0 kg) x (roughly 10 N/kg)

Weight = roughly 70 Newtons

That's <em>B </em>on Earth.

It would be some other number on other bodies.
