Give four examples of properties of nonmetals that are exactly the opposite of the properties of metals

Chemistry
1 answer:
Ugo [173]3 years ago
7 0
The properties of nonmetals- nonductile(cannot be turned into wire), dull color, high solubility, poor conductors, brittle(difficult to break) and have a wide range of colors. Compared to the properties of a metal- polished color, conducters of heat and electricity, cannot be dissolved, malleable(can bend). Would you like me to use certain elements to show this?

What is the correct sequence of coefficients when this equation is balanced? ___cs2(l) + ___o2(g) → ___co2(g) + ___so2(g)?
iris [78.8K]

Answer: the sequence is 1, 3, 1, 2.


Explanation:


1) Given equation: CS₂(l) + O₂(g) → CO₂(g) + SO₂(g)


2) To balance:


i) initially C is balanced: 1 atom in the left side, and 1 atom in the right sides


ii) Add coefficient 2 in front of SO₂ to have 2 atoms in each side.


That leads to: CS₂(l) + O₂(g) → CO₂(g) + 2SO₂(g)


iii) Count the O atoms; there are 2 atoms in the left, and 6 atoms in the right side. So, add a coefficient 3 in front of O₂ (in the left) and you get:


CS₂(l) + 3O₂(g) → CO₂(g) + 2SO₂(g)


4) You can verigy that now the equation is balanced:


C: 1 in the left, and 1 in the right


S: 2 in the left, and 2 in the right


O: 6 in the left, and 6 in the right.


5) So, the sequence is 1, 3, 1, 2.


Remember, when the none coefficient is shown it is because it is 1.

frosja888 [35]

Answer:

Weak bonds require less energy to form than strong bonds

Explanation:

According to Coulomb's law, the force between two species is inversely proportional to the distance between them. That said, the bigger the atoms are, the greater the bond length should be to form a molecule.

As a result, for a greater bond length, the attraction force is lower than for a shorter bond length. This implies that large atoms would form weak bonds and small atoms would form strong bonds.

Bond energy is defined as the amount of energy required to break the bond. If a bond is weak, it would require a low amount of energy to break it. This is also true for energy of formation, as it's the same process taking place in the opposite direction.
