Equation for the standard formation of solid sodium orthosilicate:
4 Na(s) + Si(s) + 2 O₂(g) → Na₄SiO₄(s)
Answer:
Meiosis is a type of cell division - like mitosis, but it results in four haploid cells with one-half the number of chromosomes as the original diploid cell. Meiosis occurs in plants only during sexual reproduction in specialized cells to produce a haploid egg cell.
Answer:6.022 x 10^23 molecules
Explanation: Since one mole of any chemical compound always contains 6.022 x 10^23 molecules, you can calculate the number of molecules of any substance if you know its mass and its chemical formula.
Answer:
Metallic bonds
Explanation:
Metallic bonds joins atoms of metals and atoms of alloys together. The copper used in making pennies is a metallic substance so it contains metallic bonds.
- The formation of this bond type is predicated on the large atomic radius, low ionization energy and large number of electrons in the valence shell.
- The bond is an attraction between the positive nuclei of all closely packed atoms in the lattice and the electron cloud.
- The electron cloud is jointly formed by all the atoms by losing their outermost shell electrons.
This way the bond in pennies are metallic in nature.
