Which is the reason that ionic compounds are brittle? The bonds between the anions and cations are weak and therefore easily bro

ken. A strong repulsive force is created when cations suddenly align. They involve positive metal ions in a sea of delocalized electrons. They share electrons, which makes the bond brittle.

Well ionic compounds are brittle because similar charges repel, which causes them to break usually occurring when a force is applied, like a hammer strike.

A balloon filled with air has a volume of 4.24 liters at 23.00°c. if the balloon is cooled at constant pressure to 5.00°c, what
UkoKoshka [18]

The new volume if the balloon is cooled at constant pressure is  3.98 L.

Charles's law, states that the volume occupied by a fixed amount of gas is directly proportional to its absolute temperature if the pressure remains constant.

The new  volume is calculated using the Charles law formula

                                 V₁ / T₁  = V₂ / T₂

where,

V₁ = The initial volume of air = 4.24 l

T₁ = 23.00 °C into kelvin = 23  +273 =296 K

T₂ = 5.00 °C into kelvin = 5.00 + 273 = 278 K

V₂ = ?

By making  V₂ subject the subject of the formula  by multiplying both sides by T₂

V₂ = ( V₁  × T₂ ) / T₁

V₂ =  (4.24 L  ×  278 K)  / 296 k  

   = 3.98 L

Therefore, the new volume, if the balloon is cooled at constant pressure, is  3.98 L.

An air-filled balloon will contract when chilled and expand when heated. This occurs because the gas that makes up the air within the balloon expands when it is warm and contracts when it is cool.
