High conductivity of metals is caused by electrons that are free to move through the lattice.
hope this helps!
I think it is Global warming
Answer : If we list the given chemicals according to their increasing oxidising ability then the order will be like this; 1 being the strongest and 6 being the weakest
1. K > 2. Ca >3. Ni> 4. Cu> 5. Ag> 6.Au
Explanation : Considering the reduction potential of each chemical species it will be easy to identify their oxidising capacity and differentiate accordingly;
More negative the value of reduction potential more is the ability of the chemical species to get oxidised.
Chemicals with their reduction potential is given below.
K has -2.92; Ca has -2.76; Ni has -0.23; Cu has 0.52; Ag has 1.50 and Au has 1.50.
Explanation :
As we know that the Gibbs free energy is not only function of temperature and pressure but also amount of each substance in the system.
where,
is the amount of component 1 and 2 in the system.
Partial molar Gibbs free energy : The partial derivative of Gibbs free energy with respect to amount of component (i) of a mixture when other variable are kept constant are known as partial molar Gibbs free energy of component.
For a substance in a mixture, the chemical potential is defined as the partial molar Gibbs free energy.
The expression will be:
where,
T = temperature
P = pressure
is the amount of component 'i' and 'j' in the system.
beryllium & calcium are the two in the same column or family
