Lead is malleable, so it can be pounded into flat sheets without breaking. How does the bonding within lead help to explain this

property?
Metallic bonds involve valence electrons that are removed from one atom and given to another, so the pounding helps the electrons move.
Covalent bonds involve valence electrons that are shared between two metal atoms, so the bonds are strong enough to resist the pounding.
Metallic bonds involve many valence electrons shared by many atoms, so the bonds can move around as the metal is pounded.
Covalent bonds involve valence electrons that are removed from one atom and given to another, so the pounding helps the electrons move.

The answer is Metallic bonds involve many valence electrons shared by many atoms, so the bonds can move around as the metal is pounded. The metallic bond structure of lead forms a cubic crystal structure and the atoms can roll over one another without breaking the metallic bonds. This is especially because the p orbital electrons of lead can be delocalized and the electrons can be shared with other lead ions in the cubic structure of lead.

Answer: Option (c) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

In metallic bonding, the valence electrons are involved in bonding with many atoms.

As a result, valence electrons dissociate within their atomic core and form a sea of electrons which helps in binding the positively charged ions.

Thus, we can conclude that the bonding within lead help to explain this property as metallic bonds involve many valence electrons shared by many atoms, so the bonds can move around as the metal is pounded.

Answer:

d. End product is that product with a ketone and carboxylic acid.

Explanation:

{ \sf{NaBH_{4}  : }}

Sodium borohydride is a reducing agent, it reduces the ketone to a primary alcohol.

{ \sf{H _{2} O \:  and \: H {}^{ + } }}

Then acidified water is an oxidising mixture which reverses the reduction reaction.

A certain metal hydroxide, m(oh)2, contains 32.8% oxygen by mass. what is the identity of the metal m? enter the full name of th
Simora [160]

Solution:[tex]Let the molar mass of metal M is 'a',\\ \rn(so)\\ \frac{M_{o}}{2M_{H}+2M_{o}+a}        =\frac{2.16}{2.1+2.16+a} =0.328\\ By simple algebric calculation. We get,\\         a=63.56g/mol\\ \rn(Now,)\\

We have to confirm which metal has the molar mass of 63.56g/mol. By using periodic table we have to find it the we get it is Copper(Cu).

Bro Water droplets may grow as a result of additional condensation of water vapor when the particles collide. If enough collisions occur to produce a droplet with a fall velocity which exceeds the cloud updraft speed, then it will fall out of the cloud as precipitation.
