Which two properties are characteristic of ionic compounds?

Chemistry
2 answers:
Sedaia [141]4 years ago
6 0

Ionic compounds have high enthalpy of fusion and high enthalpy of vaporization. High heat is required to melt and vaporize ionic compounds because ionic compounds are formed between cation and anion and the oppositely charged ions are held by strong electrostatic force of attraction.  

Ionic compounds form crystal lattice in which there is alternate arrangement of cation and anion in an array of three dimensional space. Ionic compounds do not form amorphous solids.

They are colourless solids (salts) that do not conduct electricity when solid, but conduct electricity in aqueous solution as the ions (that carry charge) are free to move.

They have a high melting point due to the strong electrostatic forces of attraction between oppositely charged ions

Best regards

How many different principal quantum numbers can be found in the ground-state electron configuration of nickel?A) 2.B) 3.C) 4.D)
Naddik [55]

Answer:

C) 4.

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, since the electron configuration of nickel at its ground-state, considering 28 as its atomic number and the number of electrons it has in one atom, is:

Ni^{28}:1s^2,2s^2,2p^6,3s^2,3p^6,4s^2,3d^8

We can see it has four energy levels, 1, 2, 3 and 4, which are related to the following principal quantum number, that describes the energy of an electron in the atom and its most probable distance with respect to the nucleus.

Therefore, nickel has C) 4 different principal quantum numbers.

Best regards!

Why do all living things need nitrogen?
Vadim26 [7]

Answer:

Option A. to build new cells.

Explanation:

All living things need nitrogen for the production of new cell because nitrogen is the main structural component of the cell. Protein is made up of amino acid and amino acid made of nitrogen. Without nitrogen atom, enzymes formation is impossible and we know that enzymes are necessary to speed up the chemical process. So nitrogen is very important for living organisms.

Photodissociation of ozone (O3) can be described as producing an oxygen atom with heat of formation 247.5 kJ/mol. However, in re
Lapatulllka [165]

Answer:

0.2193 μm

Explanation:

The reaction showing the Photodissociation of ozone (O3) is given below as:

           O₃         +        hv   -------------------------->      O₂         +       O⁺  

H°        (142.9)                                                         (0)                  (438kJ/mol).

The first thing to do here is to determine the change in the enthalpy of the total reaction, this can be done by subtracting the change in the enthalpy of the reactant from the change in enthalpy in the product. Hence, we have:

ΔH° = [438 kJ/mol + 247.5 kJ/mol] - (142.9) = 542.6 KJ/mol.

This value, that is 542.6 KJ/mol will then be used in the determination of the value for the maximum wavelength that could cause this photodissociation.

Therefore, the maximum wavelength could cause this photodissociation ≤ h × c/ E = [ 1.199 × 10⁻⁴]/ 542.6 = 2.193 × 10⁻⁷ =  0.2193 μm

Laser fusion Group of answer choices uses chemical reactions to produce energy uses nuclear reactions to produce energy implodes
KonstantinChe [14]

Answer:

Uses nuclear reactions to produce energy

Implodes a fuel pellet

Explanation:

Laser fusion is a method of initiating nuclear fusion reactions through heating, and compressing fuel pellets containing deuterium and tritium using high energy density laser beams. Lase fusion is also known as inertial confinement fusion and the energy produced by the process is known as Laser Inertial Fusion Energy, LIFE.

During the process of laser fusion, small pellets of deuterium-tritium (DT) isotopes mixture are fed into a blast chamber where they are compressed to high densities using a number of amplified laser beams in the chamber.

The high energy density of the beams as well as the heat produced due to compression, induces the thermonuclear explosion ignition resulting in the production of high energetic products such as charged particles, x-rays and neutrons. The energy produced is absorbed and stored as heat in a blanket that is then used in a steam thermal cycle to generate electrical power.

There are two methods of compression of the DT pellet: direct and indirect-drive laser fusions.

However, there are a number of limitations to energy production by this process. One limitation is that the process is extremely inefficient in energy energy production. Also, the heat produced by the flashtubes results innthe deformation of the laser glass.
