The correct answer is a metal atom forms a cation, and a nonmetal atom forms an anion. This is because metals are less electronegative than nonmetals and will therefore give electrons to nonmetals. Atoms that give up electrons will have a positive charge therefore becoming a cation while atoms that accept electrons will have a negative charge therefore becoming an anion.
Ions that have the same charge can't be attracted to each other since it takes a positive and negative charge to cause attractive forces.
A less electronegative atom will transfer electrons to a more electronegative atom.
A metal (cation) can pull electrons from another metal (not an ion) but that does not form an attractive force between the two metals (You will learn more about this when you go over reduction potentials, redox reactions, and electrochemistry).
I hope this helps. Let me know if anything is unclear.
Answer:
The metal has a heat capacity of 0.385 J/g°C
This metal is copper.
Explanation:
<u>Step 1</u>: Data given
Mass of the metal = 21 grams
Volume of water = 100 mL
⇒ mass of water = density * volume = 1g/mL * 100 mL = 100 grams
Initial temperature of metal = 122.5 °C
Initial temperature of water = 17°C
Final temperature of water and the metal = 19 °C
Heat capacity of water = 4.184 J/g°C
<u />
<u>Step 2: </u>Calculate the specific heat capacity
Heat lost by the metal = heat won by water
Qmetal = -Qwater
Q = m*c*ΔT
m(metal) * c(metal) * ΔT(metal) = - m(water) * c(water) * ΔT(water)
21 grams * c(metal) *(19-122.5) = -100 * 4.184 * (19-17)
-2173.5 *c(metal) = -836.8
c(metal) = 0.385 J/g°C
The metal has a heat capacity of 0.385 J/g°C
This metal is copper.
Answer:
<em> ionic equation : </em>3Fe(2+)(aq) + 3SO4(2-)(aq)+ 6Na(+)(aq) + 2PO4 (3-) (aq) → Fe3(PO4)2(s)+ 6Na(+) + 3SO4(2-)(aq)
<em> net ionic equation: </em>3Fe(2+)(aq) + 2PO4 (3-)(aq) → Fe3(PO4)2(s)
Explanation:
The balanced equation is
3FeSO4(aq)+ 2Na3PO4(aq) → Fe3(PO4)2(s)+ 3Na2SO4(aq)
<em>Ionic equations: </em>Start with a balanced molecular equation. Break all soluble strong electrolytes (compounds with (aq) beside them) into their ions
. Indicate the correct formula and charge of each ion. Indicate the correct number of each ion
. Write (aq) after each ion
.Bring down all compounds with (s), (l), or (g) unchanged. The coefficents are given by the number of moles in the original equation
3Fe(2+)(aq) + 3SO4(2-)(aq)+ 6Na(+)(aq) + 2PO4 (3-) (aq) → Fe3(PO4)2(s)+ 6Na(+) + 3SO4(2-)(aq)
<em>Net ionic equations: </em>Write the balanced molecular equation. Write the balanced complete ionic equation. Cross out the spectator ions, it means the repeated ions that are present. Write the "leftovers" as the net ionic equation.
3Fe(2+)(aq) + 2PO4 (3-)(aq) → Fe3(PO4)2(s)
Alloys are the homogeneous mixture of metals and non metals.... they are used in making cars and jewellery to make them more featurable,,, means that they would possess high regidity to the destruction .... both features of metal and nonmetal
I believe it can be warm because usually the surface below us is warm itself, causing the air to be warm as well. The temperature can vary as well
