The molecular structure of the solids has lower ability to conduct electricity due to tight holding by nucleus.
<h3>Why molecular solids are poor conductors?</h3>
Molecular solids are also poor conductors of electricity because their valence electrons are tightly held by the nuclear charges present in the nucleus while on the other hand, Metals are good electrical conductors in the solid form due to the presence of free electrons that helps in the conduction of electricity.

Answer:
![[Pb^{2+}]=3.9 \times 10^{-2}M](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5BPb%5E%7B2%2B%7D%5D%3D3.9%20%5Ctimes%2010%5E%7B-2%7DM)
this is the concentration required to initiate precipitation
Explanation:
⇄
Precipitation starts when ionic product is greater than solubility product.
Ip>Ksp
Precipitation starts only when solution is supersaturated because solution become supersaturated then it does not stay in this form and precipitation starts itself only solution become saturated.
This usually happens when two solutions containing separate sources of cation and anion are mixed together and here also we are mixing lead (||)nitrate solution(source of lead(||)) into the Cl- solution.
![Ip=[Pb^{2}][2Cl^-]^2=Ksp](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=Ip%3D%5BPb%5E%7B2%7D%5D%5B2Cl%5E-%5D%5E2%3DKsp)

lets solubility=S
![[Pb^{2+}] = S](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5BPb%5E%7B2%2B%7D%5D%20%3D%20S)
![[Cl^-]=2S](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5BCl%5E-%5D%3D2S)
![Ksp=[Pb^{2+}]\times [Cl^-]^2](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=Ksp%3D%5BPb%5E%7B2%2B%7D%5D%5Ctimes%20%5BCl%5E-%5D%5E2)


![S=\sqrt[3]{\frac{Ksp}{4} }](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=S%3D%5Csqrt%5B3%5D%7B%5Cfrac%7BKsp%7D%7B4%7D%20%7D)

this is the concentration required to initiate precipitation
Answer:
In the nucleus of an atom ,there are protons & neutrons. Protons have charge of 1.6× 10^-19 C, while neutrons have 0C charges. Electrons orbit outside the atom. Their charge is - 1.6 ×10^-19C
Explanation:
Answer:
, the solution is basic
Explanation:
pH or pOH is the measure of acidity or alkalinity of a solution.
Acids have pH ranging from 1 to 6.9 and bases have pH ranging from 7.1 to 14.Neutral substances have pH of 7.
![pH=-\log [H_3O^+]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=pH%3D-%5Clog%20%5BH_3O%5E%2B%5D)
![pOH=-\log[OH^-]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=pOH%3D-%5Clog%5BOH%5E-%5D)
Putting in the values:
![pOH=-\log[5.5\times 10^{-5}]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=pOH%3D-%5Clog%5B5.5%5Ctimes%2010%5E%7B-5%7D%5D)



![9.8=-\log [H_3O^+]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=9.8%3D-%5Clog%20%5BH_3O%5E%2B%5D)
![[H_3O^+]=1.6\times 10^{-10}M](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5BH_3O%5E%2B%5D%3D1.6%5Ctimes%2010%5E%7B-10%7DM)
As pH is more than 7, the solution is basic
