Answer:

Alkali metals

Explanation:

The alkali metals are a group of metallic elements which are present in the first group of the periodic table. In other words, they are present in group 1 of the periodic table. These elements have one electron in their valence shell, the reason why they are placed in group 1.

They ionize by losing one electron to achieve the configuration of the nearest Noble gas or inert gas. Because they need to offset only one electron in their outermost shell, they are very chemically reactive and hence rarely occur in the free state.

Examples of elements in this group include lithium, potassium and sodium. They each have one electron only in their outermost shells.

Benzene exists as a resonance hybrid and its bonds exhibit characteristics that are halfway between single and double bonds. Res
gregori [183]

Answer:

Explanation:

We can only talk about resonance hybrid for a compound in which more than one structure is possible based on its observed chemical properties.

There are compounds whose chemical properties can not be satisfactorily explained on the basis of a single chemical structure. In the case of such compounds, we invoke the idea of resonance.

A resonance hybrid is a single structure drawn to represent a given chemical specie which exhibits resonance behaviour and can otherwise be represented on paper in the form of an average of two or more chemical structures separated each from the next by a double-headed arrow.

At what temperature will a solid melt?
jolli1 [7]

<u>Answer</u>:

A solid will melt at the temperature at which the kinetic energy breaks the inter-molecular attractions.

<u>Explanation</u>:

The melting point is the state at which "a substance changes its temperature from a solid to  liquid". At the melting point temperature, there is an equilibrium between the both the solid and the liquid phase. When the solid particle is heated by increasing the temperature the particle in the solid vibrate quickly and it absorbs kinetic energy.

It leads to the breaking of the organisation of particle in between the solid and that leads to the melting of solid. Thus, at the melting point, the kinetic energy breaks the inter-molecular attractions.
