Answer:

metallic bond

sea of delocalized electrons

Explanation:

Copper has Cu2+ atoms arranged in layers and held together by a sea of electrons in lattice form. The sea of electrons or de-localized electrons are provided by Cu. Each copper atom contributes 2 electrons to the sea for binding of Cu2+ atom layer.

The sea of electrons are highly mobile and require a very small potential difference across the atoms to push these electrons to form a current. The mobility, ease and freeness of these electrons allows copper to be a good electrical conductor

Answer:

a. metallic bond

b. the valence electrons from the s and p orbitals of the interacting metal atoms delocalize. That is to say, instead of orbiting their respective metal atoms, they form a “cloud” of electrons that surrounds the positively charged atomic nuclei of the interacting metal ions.

c. due to the presence of free electrons in its outer energy levels

At what speed do a bicycle and its rider, with a combined mass of 100 kg, have the same momentum as a 1400 kg car traveling at 6
Ilia_Sergeevich [38]
Momentum of car

Given: Mass m= 1,400 Kg;    V = 6.0 m/s

Formula:  P = mv    

                P = (1,400 Kg)(6.0 m/s)

                P = 8,400 Kg.m/s

Velocity of the rider to have the same momentum as a car.

Mass of rider and bicycle  m = 100 Kg

P = mv

V = P/m

V = 8,400 Kg.m/s/100 Kg

V = 84 m/s

One peice of evidence that the universe is expanding
AnnyKZ [126]
Who Figured This Out? The American astronomer Edwin Hubble made the observations in 1925 and was the first to prove that the universe is expanding. He proved that there is a direct relationship between the speeds of distant galaxies and their distances from Earth. This is now known as Hubble's Law.
