What property of metals allows them to be shaped into wires?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Andreas93 [3]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Ductility

Explanation:

Ductility is the ability of a metal to be converted into a thin wire without  getting break and loosing its hardness. The property of Ductility of a metal allows us to make a wider use of them. Some most ductile metals are gold, silver, copper etc. whereas some of the metals with very less ductility are tungsten, steel and other alloys as they are very hard to transform into a thin wire.

A metal with less ductility can be malleable as it can have the ability to be converted into a thin sheet. Not all the metals are ductile but some of them have high ductility, some have less and some of them are non ductile.

How many hydrogen atoms are in 105 g of water?
mel-nik [20]
Moles of water atoms = mass/molecular weight = 105/18 = 5.83 mol. Number of moles of hydrogen in water = 2 x moles of water = 11.66. Number of H atoms in water = moles of hydrogen x 6.02 x 10^23 = 7.019 x 10^24 ~ 7.02 x 10^24 atoms. Hope this helps.

How many dm3 of oxygen at STP would be required to react completely with 38.8g of propane? (3 marks)
11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

98.56 dm^3 of oxygen at STP would be required to react completely with 38.8g of propane.

<u>Given that :</u>

molar mass of propane = 44 g/mol

mass of propane = 38.8 g

∴ Moles present in 38.8 g of propane = \frac{38.8}{44} = 0.88 mole

<u>applying rule of balanced equations </u>

1 mole of propane = 5 moles of oxygen

0.88 mole of propane =  5 * 0.88 = 4.4 moles of oxygen

Note : volume of 1 mole of oxygen at STP = 22.4 dm^3

∴Total volume of oxygen required at STP = 22.4 * 4.4 = 98.56 dm^3

Hence we can conclude that the volume of oxygen at STP required to react completely 98.56 dm^3

Explain how the immune system responds to pathegons
Ne4ueva [31]

Answer:

The immune system responds to antigens by producing cells that directly attack the pathogen, or by producing special proteins called antibodies. Antibodies attach to an antigen and attract cells that will engulf and destroy the pathogen. The main cells of the immune system are lymphocytes known as B cells and T cells.

describe how the current modern atomic theory and model differs from the model jj Thompson proposed ?
myrzilka [38]
J.J Thompson’s model shows a sphere with electrons that are moving around freely. However, Thompson’s model does not show protons or neutrons. The model that we have today gives a clearer structure showing protons, neutrons, and electrons inside an atom.

What is the theoretical yield of Ca(OH)2, in grams, if 31.8 g of CaO is hydrolyzed (reacted) in an excess of water?
Fiesta28 [93]

The theoretical yield of Ca(OH)₂ : 42.032 g

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

31.8 g of CaO

Required

The theoretical yield of Ca(OH)₂

Solution

Reaction

CaO + H₂O⇒Ca(OH)₂

mol CaO (MW=56 g/mol) :

= mass : MW

= 31.8 g : 56 g/mol

= 0.568

From equation, mol Ca(OH)₂ = mol CaO = 0.568

Mass Ca(OH)₂ (MW=74 g/mol) :

= 0.568 x 74

= 42.032 g
