Explain how metallic atoms bond to form metallic compounds.

Physics

AlekseyPX3 years ago

<u>Answer:</u>

Metals possess low ionisation energy hence it loses electrons easily. The nucleus and the inner shell electrons is called the kernel.

The electron which gets lost leaves the influence of one kernel and moves towards the other.

Thus the electrons will be in constant movement and gets delocalized.

The electrostatic forces between the positive kernel and the sea of mobile electrons is called as metallic bond.

Metal atoms possess this type of attractive forces in between them.

For example the metal atoms of a sheet of copper possess this type of chemical bond between the atoms.

Thus, Metallic bonding is a type of chemical bonding that rises from the electrostatic attractive force between conduction electrons and positively charged metal ions

In metallic bonds, the valence electrons from the s and p orbitals of the interacting metal atoms delocalize. That is to say, instead of orbiting their respective metal atoms, they form a “sea” of electrons that surrounds the positively charged atomic nuclei of the interacting metal ions

In your own words, explain the effects of changes in Earth's magnetic field over time.
viva [34]
It's an interesting fact that scientists don't fully understand how it works. But it seems to be to do with molten metal circulating in the core. Given that it's just liquid metal sloshing around, it seems understandable that it won't always circulate perfectly - imagine the cloud bands in Jupiter's atmosphere - they are reasonably stable but change from time to time. When the liquid changes its speed or direction, however slowly it does so, the resulting magnetic field will move or switch direction.

<span> As scientists try to build better mathematical models of how the core works, they should be able to learn more about the magnetic field it produces. Hope this helps</span>

In physics how much energy is required to raise the temp of 9.78kg of water from 40.82c to 52.07c? The specific heat of water in
Sati [7]

Answer:

469.6KJ

Explanation:

Heat energy required can be calculated using the formula

H = mc∆t where

m is the mass of the water

c is the specific heat capacity of the water

∆t is the change in temperature of the water

Given m = 9.78kg

c = 4186j/kg-c.

∆t = 52.07°C - 40.82°C

∆t = 11.25°C

H = 9.78 × 4186 × 11.25

H = 460,564.65Joules

= 460.6KJ

How can you prove that air contains carbon dioxide?​
pickupchik [31]

Answer:

Limewater can be used to detect carbon dioxide. If carbon dioxide is bubbled through limewater then it turns from clear to cloudy/milky in colour. This is why limewater used in a simple respirometer can show that more carbon dioxide is present in exhaled air compared to inhaled air.
