  • An ionic compound will not conduct electricity as a solid.
  • It will conduct electricity when melted.
  • Some ionic compounds are soluble. Their solutions in water also conduct electricity.
<h3>Explanation</h3>

A substance should contain charged particles that are free to move around in order to conduct electricity.

Ionic compounds contain an ocean of ions. They carry either positive or negative charges. Attractions between them hold them in a rigid lattice under the solid state. Those ions are unable to move. The ionic compound can't conduct electricity.

Melting the ionic compound will break the lattice. Those ions are now free to move to conduct electricity. Dissolving the compound in water will also free the ions. As a result, those solutions will also conduct electricity.

Conductivity under different states distinguishes between ionic compounds, molecular compounds, and metals.

  • Ionic compounds conduct electricity when melted but not as a solid.
  • Molecular compounds have no charged particles. They do not conduct electricity even when melted.
  • Valence electrons in metals are free to move both when the metal is a solid and when it is melted. Metals conduct electricity under both solid and liquid states.

Do metals donate or accept electrons? what do they become after they donate/accept electrons?
valentinak56 [21]
Metal usually donates electrons. The concept behind this phenomenon is stability. The elements with the most stable electronic configuration are the noble gases in Group 5A. As a result, the other elements donate or accept electrons so that they would be like the noble gases. Since metals are past their nearest noble gas element, they have to shed their electrons. When they do, they become cations which are positively charged ions.

Which of the following statements best describes the relationships between carrying captivity in population size
Ierofanga [76]

The correct answer is letter a, whereas, carrying capacity in captivity increases population size. It is because the carrying captivity is the one responsible for having a maximum population size in which will help in sustaining the necessities that the species need in the environment in which makes it responsible for the population size to increase depending on its capacity. The correct answer is letter a.

Express the quantity 556.2 x 10^-12 in each units<br> A.) ms<br> B.) ns<br> C.) ps<br> D.) fs
zavuch27 [327]
The answer:
we should know the meaning of each abbreviation:
ms means  millisecond, its value is 10^-3 s 
ns means  means  nanosecond,   its value is 10^-9 s
ps means  picosecond, its value is 10^-12 s
fs means  femtosecond, its value is 1x 10^15 s

<span>Expressions of the quantity 556.2 x 10^-12 are</span>
556.2 x 10^-12 =556.2 ps
556.2 x 10^-12 =556.2 x 10^-9 x 10^-3= 556.2 x 10^-9 ms
556.2 x 10^-12 = 556.2 x 10^-3 x 10^-9 = 556.2 x 10^-3 ns
556.2 x 10^-12 = 556.2 x 10^- 27 x 10^15 = 556.2 x 10^- 27 fs

If you are using 3.00% (mass/mass) hydrogen peroxide solution and you determine that the mass of solution required to reach the
Maurinko [17]

Answer:

0.004522 moles of hydrogen peroxide molecules are present.

Explanation:

Mass by mass percentage of hydrogen peroxide solution = w/w% = 3%

Mass of the solution , m= 5.125 g

Mass of the hydrogen peroxide = x

w/w\% = \frac{x}{m}\times 100

3\%=\frac{x}{5.125 g}\times 100

x=\frac{3\times 5.125 g}{100}=0.15375 g

Mass of hydregn pervade in the solution = 0.15375 g

Moles of hydregn pervade in the solution :

=\fraC{ 0.15375 g}{34 g/mol}=0.004522 mol

0.004522 moles of hydrogen peroxide molecules are present.
