Answer:
A
Explanation:
Metal atoms are held together by metallic bonds. The metallic bonds are composed of a lattice of positive ions in a 'sea of electrons'.
The metal atoms are held together by strong electrostatic attraction between the positive ions and the 'sea of electrons' leading to high melting point of metals including copper.
Similarly, when a metal undergoes stress, the layers of the metal roll over each other but the lattice remains in place. Hence for metals such as Copper, layers of atoms in the lattice can slide over each other thereby making the metal malleable.
Metals oxidize by electron loss. Since Copper is metal, it can also be oxidized to form copper ions by loosing electrons.
Answer: a gas
The gas phase is the phase where particles are packed the least tightly together.
Answer:
The molecular shape and ideal bond angle of the is trigonalbipyramidal and respectively.
Explanation:
The structure of is as follows.(in attachment)
From the structure,
Phosphor atom has one lone pair and three hydrogens are bonded by six electrons.
Therefore, total electrons invovled in the formation is eight.
Hence, four electron groups which indicate the tetrahedral shape. But one pair is lone pair i.e, present on the phosphor atom.
Therefore, ideal geometry of the molecule is <u>Trigonalbipyramidal.</u>
The ideal angle of trigonalbipyrmidal is .
All three bonds of P-H has .
Therefore, ideal bond angle is <u>.</u>
Answer:
Explain your answer. mg2+ would be the smaller ion this is because each ion has the same number of electrons however mg2+ has a greater number of protons and therefore is more charge dense and the outer electrons feel a greater pull from the nucleus.
Hope this helps, have a great day/night, and stay safe!
