In metallic bonding, valence electrons of metals move freely between neighbouring atoms. metals are ductile

because the forces that hold their atoms together are weak.

Explanation:

Metallic bonds are the force which holds atoms together in a metal.

Valence electrons present in the metals are freely moving between the other neighbouring atoms. The interaction between the positive ions which electrons leave behind and the valence electrons give the binding force which able to hold the metallic crystal together as it is.

In metals, the electrons are free to travel from one metal to another metal. This speciality is the reason for their electric conductivity. And this shows that the metal-metal bond is weak in metal.

Why does distillation produce pure water but filtration does not?

ASHA 777 [7]

Filtration is used to separate large particles but this process does not provide pure solutions as some impurities still remain in the solution. On the other hand, distillation helps in the formation of pure water as it removes the impurities from the water or solution.

Thepotemich [5.8K]

Answer:

21.86582KJ

Explanation:

The graphical form of the Arrhenius equation is shown on the image attached. Remember that in the Arrhenius equation, we plot the rate constant against the inverse of temperature. The slope of this graph is the activation energy and its y intercept is the frequency factor.

Applying the equation if a straight line, y=mx +c, and comparing the given equation with the graphical form of the Arrhenius equation shown in the image attached, we obtain the activation energy of the reaction as shown.
