Answer: cations together in a sea of electrons

Explanation:

Metallic bonding is the type of chemical bonding occurs between the atoms of a metals. In this type of bonding arises due to electrostatic interaction between the electron cloud of de-localized electrons with positively charges metal ions called as cations.

These de-localized electrons are the valence electrons of metal atoms which are shared between them.

In ionic bonding , the cations are attracted to anions where cations are formed by loss of electrons by metals and anions are formed by gain of electrons by non metals.

Phosphate, PO43−, is a polyatomic ion that can combine with any cation to form an ionic compound.
vesna_86 [32]

Answer:

Li3PO4 - correct

FePO4 - correct

Cu3PO4 - correct

Mg3(PO4)2 - correct

Explanation:

In order to answer this question we must be conversant with the idea of valency as well as the idea of writing formula of ionic substances.

Lithium has a valency of 1 while PO4^3- has a valency of 3 so the correct formula of lithium phosphate must be Li3PO4 after the exchange of valencies.

Iron III has a valency of 3 while the phosphate ion also has a valency of 3 so the subscripts cancel out and iron III phosphate is FePO4.

Copper I ion has a valency of 1 and the phosphate ion has a valency of 3. When they exchange valencies, the formula of the compound is Cu3PO4.

Magnesium has a valency of 2 while the phosphate ion has a valency of 3. The exchange of valency gives us the formula Mg3(PO4)2.

If a carbon atom is bonded to two hydrogen atoms and two carbon atoms, what type of bond must exist between the carbon atoms?
lara31 [8.8K]

Answer: The bond between them is covalent bond.

Explanation: There are 2 types of bonds present:

1. Covalent bond: This bond is present when there is sharing of electrons between two elements. This bond is prominent in the bonding of two non-metals.

2. Ionic bond: This type of bond is formed when there is a complete transfer of electrons from one element to another element. In this bonding one element is always a metal and another is a non-metal.

We are given that a carbon atom is forming two bonds with hydrogen and rest two with carbon atoms. Carbon and hydrogen both are non-metals and hence, the bonds between them will be purely covalent in nature.

So, the bond between two carbon atoms is covalent bond.

What is the mass and volume of the nucleus relative to the size of the atom?
Dmitrij [34]

Answer:

The atom with the smallest mass is the hydrogen atom; its mass is about 10-27 kg. The masses of other atoms go up to about 200 times this. The nucleus of an atom is about 10-15 m in size; this means it is about 10-5 (or 1/100,000) of the size of the whole atom.

Which of the following is/are true regarding initial and maximal velocity of enzyme-mediated reactions?
kenny6666 [7]

Answer:

a. True

b. True

c. False

d. True

Explanation:

a). A a very low substrate concentration , $S. Thus according to the Machaelis-Menten equation becomes

$V_0 = \frac{V_{max} \times [S]}{Km}$

Here since the $V_0$ varies directly to the substrate concentration [S], the initial velocity is lower than the maximal velocity. Thus option  (a) is true.

b). The Michaelis -Menten kinetics equation states that :

   $V_0 = \frac{V_{max} \times [S]}{Km+[S]}$

  Here the initial velocity changes directly with the substrate concentration as $V_0$ is directly proportional to [S]. But $V_{max}$ is same for any particular concentration of the enzymes. Thus, option (b) is true.

c). As the substrate concentration increases, the initial velocity also increases. Thus option (c) is false.

d). Option (d) explains the procedures to estimate the initial velocity which is correct. Thus, option (d) is true.
