please show appreciation if it helps
and sorry if it doesn't help.
All particles (atoms and molecules) of matter have kinetic energy because they are always in motion.
A measure of the kinetic energy of particle motion within a substance is temperature. If the particles move faster, they have more kinetic energy, and the substance has a higher temperature
PH (potential of hydrogen) is a numeric scale that is used to show the acidity or basicity of an aqueous solution. It tells how acidic or alkaline a substance is . The pH values ranges from 0 to 14, such that acidic solutions have values between 1 to 6.9 with most acidic having a pH value of 1 and those that are basic have values from 7.1 to 14, with most acidic having a value of 14. Acidic compounds contain replaceable hydrogen ions while basic compounds contain hrdroxyl ions. In this case, a coke has a pH of 3.5 (acidic) which means that it has an excess of hydrogen ions (H+) and would be called an acid.
Answer:
B.) An atom of arsenic has one more valence electron and more electron shells than an atom of silicon, so the conductivity decreases because the arsenic atom loses the electron.
Explanation:
Silicon is located in the 3rd row and 14th column in the periodic table. Arsenic is located in the 4th row and 15th column in the periodic table. This means that arsenic has one more valence electron than silicon. Since arsenic is located one row down from silicon, its valence electrons occupy higher energy orbitals.
Silicon maintains a crystal-like lattice structure. Each silicon atom is covalently connected to assume this shape. When silicon gains one extra electron from arsenic, it experiences n-type doping. This new electron is not tightly bound in the lattice structure. This allows it to move more freely and conduct more electricity. This can also be explained using band gaps. Silicon, which previously had an empty conduction band, now has one electron in this band. This lowers the band gap between the conduction and valence bands and increases conductivity.
