Each shell is composed of one or more subshells. The first K shell has one subshell, called ‘1s’; the L shell has two subshells, called ‘2s’ and ‘2p’; the third shell has ‘3s’, ‘3p’, and ‘3d’; and so on. A subshell is the set of states defined by the azimuthal quantum number, l, within a shell. The values l = 0, 1, 2, 3 correspond s, p, d and f subshells, respectively. The maximum number of electrons which can occupy a subshell is given by 2(2l + 1). This gives two electrons in an s subshell, six electrons in a p subshell, ten electrons in a d subshell and fourteen electrons in an f subshell.

All metals have similar properties BUT, there can be wide variations in melting point, boiling point, density, electrical conductivity and physical strength.To explain the physical properties of metals like iron or sodium we need a more sophisticated picture than a simple particle model of atoms all lined up in close packed rows and layers, though this picture is correctly described as another example of a giant lattice held together by metallic bonding.A giant metallic lattice – the crystal lattice of metals consists of ions (NOT atoms) surrounded by a 'sea of electrons' that form the giant lattice (2D diagram above right).The outer electrons (–) from the original metal atoms are free to move around between the positive metal ions formed (+).These 'free' or 'delocalised' electrons from the outer shell of the metal atoms are the 'electronic glue' holding the particles together.There is a strong electrical force of attraction between these free electrons (mobile electrons or 'sea' of delocalised electrons) (–) and the 'immobile' positive metal ions (+) that form the giant lattice and this is the metallic bond. The attractive force acts in all directions.Metallic bonding is not directional like covalent bonding, it is like ionic bonding in the sense that the force of attraction between the positive metal ions and the mobile electrons acts in every direction about the fixed (immobile) metal ions of the metal crystal lattice, but in ionic lattices none of the ions are mobile. a big difference between a metal bond and an ionic bond.Metals can become weakened when repeatedly stressed and strained.This can lead to faults developing in the metal structure called 'metal fatigue' or 'stress fractures'.If the metal fatigue is significant it can lead to the collapse of a metal structure.

___________ have a charge of +1.

stiv31 [10]

Answer:

B) Protons

Explanation:

A proton has positive charge of 1.
Electrons are the negatively charged particles of atom.
An atom consists of a positively charged nucleus surrounded by one or more negatively charged particles called electrons
To find the ionic charge of an element you'll need to consult your Periodic Table. On the Periodic Table metals (found on the left of the table) will be positive. Non-metals (found on the right) will be negative.

Find the pH of a 0.00476M HCI solution

Alex777 [14]

Ans：2.3

Explanation:

pH = -log[H+(aq)]

= -log[0.00476]

=2.3

As HCl solution is monobasic. Each molecule ionizes in water to form ONE hydrogen ion. So the H+(aq) is equal to its molarity.
