Metals allow electric charge to move freely through them. Metals have a sea of delocalized electrons that are able to move freely throughout the metal structure.

Please make brainliest answer I need one more <3

Answer is: because of delocalized electrons in metallic bond.

Substances with metallic bond conduct an electric current in liquid and solid state, because they have mobile electrons.

Most metals have strong metallic bond, because strong electrostatic attractive force between valence electrons (metals usually have low ionization energy and lose electrons easy) and positively charged metal ions.

1. Metallic bond is a type of chemical bond.

2. Metallic bond is formed between electrons and positively charged metal ions.

3. Metallic radius is defined as one-half of the distance between the two adjacent metal ions.

4. Metallic bond increace electrical and thermal conductivity.

5. Metals conduct heat, because when free moving electrons gain energy (heat) they vibrate more quickly and can move around.

Hydrogen cyanide, HCN, can be made by a two-step process. First, ammonia reacts with O2 to give nitric oxide, NO.

stealth61 [152]

Answer:

The mass of HCN is 79.65 g.

The mass of reactant which remain at the end of both reactions is 88.5 g.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of ammonia = 50.2 g

Mass of methane = 48.4 g

Hydrogen cyanide, HCN, can be made by a two-step process

Ammonia reacts with O₂ to give nitric oxide NO.

The reaction is,

$4NH_{3}+5O_{2}\Rightarrow 4NO+6H_{2}O$

We need to calculate the mole of NO

Using given data,

2.25 g NH_{3}=\dfrac{50.2}{17}= 2.95\ mole\ NH_{3} [/tex]

$4\ mole NH_{3}\ glose 4\ mol NO$

2.95 mol NH₃ will produced 2.95 mol NO

Then nitric oxide reacts with methane,

The reaction is,

$2NO+2CH_{4}\Rightarrow 2HCN+2H_{2}O+H_{2}$

We need to calculate the mole of methane

Using given data,

$mole\ of\ methane=\dfrac{48.4}{16}$

$mole\ of\ methane = 3.03\ moles$

2 mole NO produced 2 mole HCN

2.95 mol NO will produced $\dfrac{2.95\times3.03}{3.03}$ = 2.95 mol HCN

We need to calculate the mass of HCN

Using formula of mass

$m=N\times M$

Where, N = number of mole

M = molecular mass

Put the value into the formula

$m=2.95\times27$

$m= 79.65\ g$

The mass of HCN is 79.65 g.

We need to calculate the mass of NO

Using formula of mass

$m=N\times M$

Where, N = number of mole

M = molecular mass

Put the value into the formula

$m=2.95\times30$

$m= 88.5\ g$

Hence, The mass of HCN is 79.65 g.

The mass of reactant which remain at the end of both reactions is 88.5 g.

A reaction was suppose to produce 20 L of gas. Only 12 litters of gas were produced in the lab. What is the percent yield for th

pogonyaev

Answer:

$\boxed {\boxed {\sf 60 \%}}$

Explanation:

Percent yield is a ratio of the actual yield to the theoretical yield. It is found using this formula:

$\% \ yield= \frac {actual \ yield}{theoretical \ yield} *100$

The actual yield is 12 liters, because that was actually produced in the lab.

The theoretical yield is 20 liters, because that was the expected yield.

$\% \ yield= \frac {12 \ L}{20\ L} *100$

$\% \ yield= 0.6*100$

$\% \ yield= 60$

For this reaction, the percent yield is 60%.

8.7 Two products are formed in the following reaction in a 50:50 mixture. Would the resulting solution be optically active

k0ka [10]

Answer:

Yes. The solution would be optically active.

Explanation:

Diastereomer are defined as the image that is non mirror and non -identical. It is made up of two stereoisomers. They are formed when the two stereoisomers or more than two stereoisomers of the compound have the same configuration at the equivalent stereocenters.

In the given context, as the product given is a diastereomeric mixture, the product would have an optical activity in total.

So the answer is Yes.
