Why do ionic compounds have high melting points?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Vika [28.1K]3 years ago
4 0
These oppositely charged compounds are strongly held by electrostatic forces of attraction as these be together for a long time the rise in temparature occurs so that the the melting points rises in them.

The pH of a solution is measured to be pH=10. What is true of this solution?
Marta_Voda [28]

Answer:

a. the solution is a base

Explanation:

The pH range is between 0 to 14.

A solution with a pH value between 0 and 6 is said to be acidic.

A solution with pH value at 7, is said to be neutral, e.g., distilled water.

A solution with pH value between 8 and 14 is a base.

Given pH = 10, a pH value of 10 falls between the base or alkali range of the indicator

Carbon has a neutral overall charge, an atomic mass of about 12 and an atomic number of 6. How many electrons does carbon have?
Artist 52 [7]
For the atom to be neutral, it must have the same number of electrons and protons. The aromic number indicates the number of protons. Since Carbon has 6 protons, it would have to have 6 electrons for it to be neutral

How many atoms are there in 10.2 moles of Phosphorous?​
nikdorinn [45]

There are 2.06 x 10²⁴ atoms

<h3>Further explanation </h3>

The mole is the number of particles (atoms, molecules, ions)contained in a substance

1 mol = 6.02.10²³  particles

Moles can also be determined from the amount of substance mass and its molar mass

  • number of atoms :

\tt 10.2\times 6.02\times 106{23}=2.06\times 10^{24}

For the following reaction, identify the element that was oxidized, the element that was reduced, and the reducing agent. Give a
Galina-37 [17]
The element oxidized is the element in which the charge becomes more positive after the reaction, hence the reducing agent. The element that is reduced is the element or compound in which the charge becomes more negative after the reaction. Sn becomes +4 from +2. Hence Sn is the reduced element while Pb becomes +2 from +4 hence Pb is the element oxidized and PbCl4 is the reducing agent.

Express the quantity 556.2 x 10^-12 in each units<br> A.) ms<br> B.) ns<br> C.) ps<br> D.) fs
zavuch27 [327]
The answer:
we should know the meaning of each abbreviation:
ms means  millisecond, its value is 10^-3 s 
ns means  means  nanosecond,   its value is 10^-9 s
ps means  picosecond, its value is 10^-12 s
fs means  femtosecond, its value is 1x 10^15 s

<span>Expressions of the quantity 556.2 x 10^-12 are</span>
556.2 x 10^-12 =556.2 ps
556.2 x 10^-12 =556.2 x 10^-9 x 10^-3= 556.2 x 10^-9 ms
556.2 x 10^-12 = 556.2 x 10^-3 x 10^-9 = 556.2 x 10^-3 ns
556.2 x 10^-12 = 556.2 x 10^- 27 x 10^15 = 556.2 x 10^- 27 fs
