Answer is: iron.

Iron has good electrical conductivity, because metallic bonds.

1. Metallic bond is a type of chemical bond.  

2. Metallic bond is formed between electrons and positively charged metal ions.  

3. Metallic radius is defined as one-half of the distance between the two adjacent metal ions.  

4. Metallic bond increace electrical and thermal conductivity.  

5. Metals conduct heat, because when free moving electrons gain energy (heat) they vibrate more quickly and can move around.

Thermoset materials are found in the insulation of many electric cables.

Iron; atoms are electrical conductors, basically it would have the opposite affect if used as insulation against electric shock

How to do limiting reagents for chemistry?
gavmur [86]
Balance the chemical equation for the chemical reaction.
Convert the given information into moles.
Use stoichiometry for each individual reactant to find the mass of product produced.
The reactant that produces a lesser amount of product is the limiting reagent.
The reactant that produces a larger amount of product is the excess reagent.
To find the amount of remaining excess reactant, subtract the mass of excess reagent consumed from the total mass of excess reagent given.

A red blood cell is placed into each of the following solutions. Indicate whether crenation, hemolysis, or neither will occur. S
Burka [1]

Answer:

Solution A: crenation

Solution B: hemolysis

Solution C: hemolysis

Solution D: crenation

Solution E: crenation

Explanation:

Hemolysis is the rupturing of red blood cells, which results in the release of hemoglobin (from within the red blood cells) into the plasma. If a red blood cell is placed in a hypotonic solution, water will flow into the cell, the cell will swell and hemolysis will.

Crenation: when a red blood cell is placed in a <em>hypertonic solution (</em>such as highly saline solution), the red blood cell will lose water(osmosis) and will shrink in size. The red blood cell has undergone crenation.

In order for a red blood cell to prevent from undergoing hemolysis or crenation, the cell must be placed in an<em> isotonic solution, </em>i.e either in <u>0.9% (m/v) NaCl solution</u> or <u>5% glucose solution</u>

  • Solution B and Solution C are hypotonic solution, thus red blood cell has undergone hemolysis.
  • Solution A, D and E are hypertonic solution. thus red blood cell has undergone crenation
