Which reason best explains why metals are ductile instead of brittle?

Chemistry
1 answer:
MaRussiya [10]3 years ago
7 0

Answer: -

Metals are ductile instead of brittle because they have flexible bonds.

Explanation: -

Metals have a property called ductility.

It is the ability of a metal to be drawn into wires.

Metals due to greater bond flexibility are more ductile.

The most ductile metal known to man is Gold. Metallic wires find many applications in modern machinery particularly.

Usually ductility and malleability go together.

In the laboratory, a volume of 100 mL of sulfuric acid (H2SO4) is recorded. How many g are there of the liquid if its density is
gladu [14]

Answer:

\large \boxed{\text{183 g}}  

Explanation:

\begin{array}{rcl}\text{Density} & = & \dfrac{\text{Mass}}{\text{Volume}}\\\\\rho & = &\dfrac{m}{V}\\\\1.83 \text{ g$\cdot$ cm}^{-3} & = & \dfrac{m}{\text{100 cm}^{3}}\\\\m & = & \text{183 g}\\\end{array}\\\text{There are $\large \boxed{\textbf{183 g}}$ of sulfuric acid.}

Answer:

                     1. 10.66 moles of Al

                     2.  2.5 moles of Al₂O₃

                     3. 143.87 g of SO₂

Explanation:

                    The balance chemical equation is as follow,

                                      4 Al + 3 O₂ → 2 Al₂O₃

<h3>1.</h3>

According to balance chemical equation,

                       3 moles of O₂ required  =  4 moles of Al

So,

                     8 moles of O₂ will require  =  X moles of Al

Solving for X,

                      X =  8 mol × 4 mol / 3 mol

                      X =  10.66 moles of Al

<h3>2.</h3>

According to balance chemical equation,

                       4 moles of Al produced  =  2 moles of Al₂O₃

So,

                     5 moles of Al will produce  =  X moles of Al₂O₃

Solving for X,

                      X =  5 mol × 2 mol / 4 mol

                      X =  2.5 moles of Al₂O₃

<h3>3.</h3>

The balance chemical equation for the oxidation of carbon disulfide is as follow;

                                CS₂ + 3 O₂ → CO₂ + 2 SO₂

Step 1: <u>Calculate Moles of CS₂ as;</u>

                  Moles  =  Mass / M.Mass

                  Moles  =  85.5 g / 76.14 g/mol

                  Moles  =  1.12 moles of CS₂

Step 2: <u>Find out moles of SO₂ as;</u>

According to balance chemical equation,

                       1 mole of CS₂ produced  =  2 moles of SO₂

So,

                     1.12 moles of CS₂ will produce  =  X moles of SO₂

Solving for X,

                      X =  1.12 mol × 2 mol / 1 mol

                      X =  2.24 moles of SO₂

Step 3: <u>Calculate Mass of SO₂ as;</u>

                  Mass  =  Moles × M.Mass

                  Mass  =  2.24 mol × 64.06 g/mol

                  Mass  =  143.87 g of SO₂
