For metallic structures, does the packing efficiency (see sample exercise 12.1 in textbook) increase or decrease as the number o

f nearest neighbors (the coordination number) decreases?
Chemistry

Metallic solids or metallic structures experience metallic bonds which are the forces of attractions between the sea of electrons and the nucleus of the metallic atoms. They share a network of highly delocalized electrons.
I therefore think that the packing efficiency decreases as the number of nearest neighbors decreases.

What is the MOST important advantage of using ethanol as a fuel
wolverine [178]

Answer:

The correct answer is - A. Ethanol reduces air pollution.

Explanation:

Ethanol is believed to be better fuel for the environment than other petroleum fuels. Ethanol emits lower carbon dioxide as it is clean smokeless fuel, and produces less or the same oxides of nitrogen and hydrocarbons.

It is produced by the process of fermentation of molasses by yeast. Mixing it with the other fuels is found to be CO2 reduces by 30% of emissions to the atmosphere.

When harmful bacteria invade a wound, the skin around the wound turns red. This is known as:
nasty-shy [4]

Answer:

Inflammation

Explanation:

Inflammation is the response to a cut. The blood vessels expand when you get cut to allow white blood cells to flock to the wound site. These attack any bacteria that got past the clot. If you mean <u>excess</u> bacteria, then that would be an infection.

How can I identify which substance is more thermal stable?
lorasvet [3.4K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Thermal stability is the tendency to not break down when exposed to heat. A more negative enthalpy of formation will correlate with more stable products. Therefore, the more negative the enthalpy of formation is for a substance, the greater its thermal stability.

Hope it helps you!

How are minerals affected by regional metamorphism?
Inessa05 [86]

When carbonate sediments are subjected to thermal or regional metamorphism, the CO2 cannot often escape and the carbonate minerals simply recrystallize; calcite and dolomite commonly form marble. Carbonate minerals can therefore be common in some metamorphic rocks.

What kind of chemical bond is an insulator most likely to have? A. covalent bonds B. ionic bonds C. hydrogen bonds D. metallic b
mars1129 [50]

Answer is:  A. covalent bonds.

Insulator most likely has covalent bonds, because it must have low electrical conductivity.

1) Substances with covalent bond not conduct an electric current in liquid and solid state, because they not have free ions or electrons.  

2) Substances with ionic bond conduct an electric current in liquid, but not in solid state, because in liquids ions are mobile, contrary to solids where ions are fixed.

3) Substances with metallic bond conduct an electric current in liquid and solid state, because they have mobile electrons.
