Explain the conductivity results observed for sodium chloride in the solid state and in aqueous solution

Chemistry

Fittoniya [83]3 years ago

NaCl when in solid state does not conduct electricity while it does in aqueous solution.

Explanation:

NaCl (or what we call common salt) first needs to be either melted or dissolved in a solution for it to conduct electricity. The reason for this is that electrons in a solid state does not have enough freedom to move to either the Cathode (-ve) or to the Anode (+ve). So in a liquid state the electrons are now free enough to move.

Which of the following sets represents a pair of isotopes?
son4ous [18]
The correct option is A,
Isotopes are atoms of an element, which have the same number of protons but different number of neutrons in the nucleus of the atom. Thus, isotopes have the same atomic number but different mass number.
Looking at the options given above, you will discover that Chlorine which is given in option A is correct. Both type of chlorine has the same atomic number, which is 17, but they have different atomic masses, the atomic mass of the first one is 35 while that of the second one is 37.<span />

Why is an alkali metal element like sodium (Na) so reactive?
guapka [62]
Alkali metals are known for being some of the most reactive metals. This is due in part to their larger atomic radii and low ionization energies. They tend to donate their electrons in reactions and often have an oxidation state of +1. These metals are characterized as being extre

Two students are working together to build two models. Both models will represent the molecular structure of sodium bicarbonate,
vfiekz [6]

Answer:

Altogether for both models; two red jellybeans, two white jellybeans, two black jellybeans and six blue jellybeans.

<em>Note: Since no specific color was stated for oxygen atoms, the answer assigns blue colored jellybeans to represent oxygen atoms.J</em>

Explanation:

Sodium bicarbonate, NaHCO₃ is a compound composed of one atom of sodium, one atom of hydrogen, one atom of carbon and three atoms of oxygen.

Since red jellybeans represent sodium atoms, white jellybeans represent hydrogen atoms, black jellybeans represent carbon atoms and blue jellybeans represent oxygen atoms, each of the two students will require the following number of each jellybean for their model of sodium carbonate: One red jellybean, one white jellybean, one black jellybean and three blue jellybeans.

Altogether for both models; two red jellybeans, two white jellybeans, two black jellybeans and six blue jellybeans.
