The electron sea model for metals suggest that the valence electrons drift freely around the metal cations.

Answer: B

Explanation

The sea model of electron is used for describing the mechanism of metallic bonding.

The metallic bonding generally occurs between 2 or more metals leading to the formation of alloys.

According to electron sea model, the electrons which contributes to the metallic bond are mostly the valence electrons of the atoms, these valence electrons get de-localized and can move freely around the nuclei of other atoms.

Overall, it seems like nuclei of positive charge is surrounded by sea of negative electrons.

Answer-   The correct option among all the options given is option C .

Explanation- Electron sea model is named because there are more than half of the periodic table covered by metals and the way they react among themselves is completely different from the way they react with other members of the group.

Valence electrons  that are present in metals in such cases such electrons are free to roam about and drift about cations.

How does oxygen concentration affect the fish that live in a pond
Maurinko [17]

Explanation: Oxygen plays a very vital role in the life of aquatic animals. The dissolved oxygen in the water helps them to breathe under water.

Optimum level of oxygen for deep living animals like oysters, bottom feeders, crabs is around (1-6 mg/L), while the animals living on the upper side like fishes require a higher amount of around (4-6 mg/L).

If the oxygen concentration in the pond is not optimum, there will no aquatic life and hence, the ecosystem will be affected.

Hence, oxygen concentration affects the fishes that live in the pond to a higher extent.

A silver nitrate, AgNO3, solution of unknown concentration was discovered in the lab. To determine the concentration of the solu
harina [27]

Answer:

0.174 M

Explanation:

The same can be solve by using Nernst's equation

The Nernst's equation is:

Ecell=E^{0}_{cell}-\frac{0.0592}{n}log\frac{[anodic]}{[cathodic]}

For silver cell

n= 1

As both the compartments have silver nitrate solution,t the standard emf of cell will be zero.

Given

Ecell = 0.045

[Anodic compartment]= 1 M

Putting values

0.045 = 0 -\frac{0.0592}{1}log(\frac{1}{x} )

0.760=log(\frac{1}{x})

Taking antilog and solving

[AgNO3]=0.174 M
