Sodium is an earth-metal (group one), sliver and platinum are d-block metals.... Thus silicon is the metalloid and that is true because it looks like a metal being shiny blue-gray but it exhibit non-metal characteristics, except the fact that it can conduct electricity in a heated state.

The group of metalliods in the periodic table include: antimony, arsenic, boron, silicon, germanium, polonium all display semi-metal properties. So the answer would be Silicon.

How does the flow of energy during freezing compare with the flow of energy during melting

lianna [129]

Answer:

At the melting point, some molecules overcome the forces of attraction. Energy gained after the the solid melts increases the average kinetic energy or the temperature. When liquid is freezing the energy flows out the the liquid. As the kinetic energy decreases, they move more slowly.

How many unpaired electrons are in the c 2 + ion?

sladkih [1.3K]

Atomic number of C is 6. Hence, there are 6 electrons in carbon.

The electronic configuration of carbon is 1s2, 2s2, 2p2

Here, there are 2 unpaired electron. However, C2+ ions have 2 electrons less as compared to C.

Hence, electronic configuration of C 2+ ion is 1s2, 2s2. All the electrons are paired in this system. So there are no unpaired electrons in C 2+ ion.
