Which of the following best explains why ionic crystals are brittle?​

Chemistry

Natalka [10]3 years ago

Packing

Explanation:

Ionic crystals are  brittle due to the tight packing of their crystals. This provides little to no mobility between one another.

  • Brittleness implies having little to no elasticity.
  • Ionic crystals are held together by strong crystal lattice forces
  • These forces prevents crystals from freely rotating and moving space.
  • It holds them rigidly and fixed in place.
  • Ionic crystals are hard and held electrostatic forces.

During a 4 hour trip, a boat sailed 70 km in 2 h. Then the boat did not move for 1 hour and traveled 26 km in the last hour. Wha
Lubov Fominskaja [6]

Answer:

32km/hr

Explanation:

The question asks to calculate the average speed for a boat.

Mathematically, the average speed is the total distance divided by the total time

Let’s get the total distance traveled:

That would be 70km + 26km = 96km

Now the total time taken would be 3 as the boat did not move at all for an hour.

The average speed is thus 96/3 = 32km/hr

Complete Question

49.9 ml of a 0.00292 m stock solution of a certain dye is diluted to 1.00 L. the diluted solution has an absorbance of 0.600. what is the molar absorptivity coefficient of the dye

Answer:

The  value is  \epsilon  =  4118.1 \  M^{-1} cm^{-1}  

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The volume of the stock solution is  V_1   =  49.9 mL  =  0.0499 \  L  

   The concentration of the stock solution is  C_1  =  0.00292 \  M

   The volume of the diluted solution is  V_2 =  1.00 \  L

   The absorbance is  A =  0.600

Generally the from the titration equation we have that

         C_1 * V_1 =  C_2 * V_2

=>      0.00292  * 0.0499 =  C_2 * 1

=>     C_2 = 0.0001457 \  M

Generally from  Beer's law we have that

      A  =  \epsilon  * l  *  C_2

=>   \epsilon  =  \frac{A}{ l  *  C_2 }

Here  l is the length who value is  1 cm because the unit of  molar  absorptivity coefficient of the dye is M^{-1} *  cm^{-1}

So

            \epsilon  =  \frac{0.600}{ 1   * 0.0001457   }  

=>       \epsilon  =  4118.1 \  M^{-1} cm^{-1}

If an atom of Oxygen (8 protons, 8 neutrons, and 8 electrons) gains two electrons, what is the charge of the ion formed?
Alexxx [7]

Answer:

It becomes negative

Explanation:

protons carry a positive charge

neutrons carry a neutral charge

electrons carry a negative charge

if we add 2 more electrons, the charge of the ion becomes negative

thank you.
