How does the electron gas theory explain metallic bonding.

1 answer:

6 0

Answer:Metallic bonding As you can see, an electron is freely moving from one atom to another. As one metal atom loses an electron and becomes a positively charge ion, it immediately accepts one from another to become a neutral atom. This back and forth losing and gaining of electrons among atoms of the metal allow metals to easily conduct electricity.

The equilibrium constant has been estimated to be 0.12 at 25 °C. If you had originally placed 0.069 mol of cyclohexane in a 2.8

scZoUnD [109]

Answer: Concentrations of cyclohexane and methylcyclopentane at equilibrium are 0.0223 M and 0.0027 M respectively

Explanation:

Moles of cyclohexane = 0.069 mole

Volume of solution = 2.8 L

Initial concentration of cyclohexane = $\frac{moles}{Volume}=\frac{0.069}{2.8}=0.025M$

The given balanced equilibrium reaction is,

cyclohexane ⇔ methylcyclopentane

Initial conc. 0.025 M 0

At eqm. conc. (0.025-x)M (x) M

The expression for equilibrium constant for this reaction will be,

K= methylcyclopentane / cyclohexane

Now put all the given values in this expression, we get :

$0.12=\frac{(x)}{(0.025-x)}$

By solving the term 'x', we get :

x = 0.0027

Concentration of cyclohexane at equilibrium = (0.025-x ) M = (0.025-0.0027) M = 0.0223 M

Concentration of methylcyclopentane at equilibrium = (x ) M = (0.0027) M

The lattice energy of a salt is related to the energy required to separate the ions. For which of the following pairs of ions is

Kay [80]

Answer: The Lattice energy is the energy required to separate an ionic solid into its component gaseous ions or

It is the energy released when gaseous ions combine to form an ionic solid.

Explanation:

The lattice energy depends on the ionization energies and electron affinities of atoms involved in the formation of the compound. The ionization energies and electron affinities also depends on the ionic radius and charges of the ions involved. As the ionic radius for cations increases down the groups, ionization energy decreases, whereas, as ionic radii decreases across the periods , ionization energy increases. The trend observed for anions is that as ionic radii increase down the groups, electron affinity decreases. Across the period, as ionic radii increases electron affinity increases. Also, as the charge on the ion increases, it leads to an increase in energy requirement/content.

Therefore, for compounds formed from cations and anions in the same period, the highest charged cation and anion will have the highest lattice energy. For example, among the following compounds: Al2O3 (aluminium oxide), AlCl3 (aluminium chloride), MgO, MgCl2 (magnesium chloride), NaCl, Na2O (sodium oxide); Al2O3(aluminium oxide) will have the highest lattice energy, thus will be hardest to break apart because its ions have the highest charge.
