How does a network solid differ from most other covalent compounds

Chemistry
1 answer:
blondinia [14]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Covalent compounds are held by intermolecular forces while network solids are held by strong bonds in unit cells which are closely packed together.

Explanation:

Covalent compound molecules are held by vanderwaals forces which are relatively weak but strong enough to hold some covalent molecules together in the solid state. However, network solids contain atom to atom covalent bonds arranged in an orderly manner and regular repeating unit cells to form a rigid three dimensional network solid.

if a scientist creates a new rock like substance in a laboratory, why wouldnt this type of material be classified as a true mine
ad-work [718]
The reason why it is not considered this is because the material was made in a lab, not through nature, which is what is required to be considered as a true mineral.

Which technology is used to deal with waste management?
Alisiya [41]
<span>D) recycling ;)


Waste Management's Aerobic-Anaerobic Bioreactor* is designed to accelerate waste degradation by combining attributes of the aerobic and anaerobic bioreactors. The objective of the sequential aerobic-anaerobic treatment is to cause the rapid biodegradation of food and other easily degradable waste in the aerobic stage in order to reduce the production of organic acids in the anaerobic stage resulting in the earlier onset of methanogenesis. In this system the uppermost lift or layer of waste is aerated, while the lift immediately below it receives liquids. Landfill gas is extracted from each lift below the lift receiving liquids. Horizontal wells that are installed in each lift during landfill construction are used convey the air, liquids, and landfill gas. The principle advantage of the hybrid approach is that it combines the operational simplicity of the anaerobic process with the treatment efficiency of the aerobic process. Added benefits include an expanded potential for destruction of volatile organic compounds in the waste mass. (*US Patent 6,283,676 B1)</span>

The section "Cute Beavers Also Cause Trouble" that is MOST important to include in the section's summary is They can also be moved or killed if they cause trouble.

<h3>Are beavers a threat to humans?</h3>

Beavers are not to be creature which are not dangerous if left to be alone. But, they will often confront any threat when they are trapped or cornered, and thus a beaver will attack a human.

Hence, The section "Cute Beavers Also Cause Trouble" that is MOST important to include in the section's summary is They can also be moved or killed if they cause trouble.

For the reaction shown, identify the element oxidized, the element reduced, the oxidizing agent, and the reducing agent. KNO3 →
Vinvika [58]

Answer : The oxidizing element is N and reducing element is O. 

KNO_{3} is act as an oxidizing agent as well as reducing agent.

Explanation :

An Oxidizing agent is the agent which has ability to oxidize other or a higher in oxidation number.

Reducing agent is the agent which has ability to reduce other or lower in oxidation number.

The given reaction is :

KNO_{3} \rightarrow KNO_{2} +O_{2}

KNO_{3}  act as an oxidizing agent.

The oxidation number of N in KNO_{3} is calculated as:

(+1)+(x)+3(-2) = 0

x = +5

And the oxidation number of N in KNO_{2}  is calculated as:

(+1)+(x)+2(-2) = 0

x = +3

From the oxidation number method, we conclude that the oxidation number  reduced this means KNO_{3} itself get reduced to KNO_{2} and it can act as an oxidizing agent.

KNO_{3}  act as a reducing agent.

KNO_{3} \rightarrow KNO_{2} +O_{2}

The oxidation number of O in KNO_{3} is calculated as:

(+1)+(+5)+3(x) = 0

x = -2

The oxidation number of O in O_{2} is Zero (o).

Now, we conclude that the oxidation number increases this means KNO_{3} itself get oxidized to O_{2} and it can act as reducing agent.

Caculate the number if moles of the following: 800. g of Ca
Maru [420]
Mole   is  equal  to   mass  of  the  element  divided  by   molar  mass  of  the  element.  that   is
mole=mass/molar  mass
From  periodic  table calcium  has  a   molar  mass  of  40   g/mol
moles  is   therefore  =800g/40g/mol=20moles
