Why do Metals have high melting point and boiling points

Chemistry
1 answer:
hjlf3 years ago
6 0

As there is a strong electrostatic force of attraction between the positive metal ions and the negatively charged electrons, more energy is needed to overcome these forces of attractions and hence, high melting and boiling points

Hope this will help you

If so, do make this a brain lister :)

A sample of neon occupies a volume of 375 ml at stp. What will be the volume of neon If the pressure is reduced to 90.0 KPA?
abruzzese [7]
Since neon is a noble gas we can easily assume its behaviour to be an ideal gas. In ideal gases pressure is said to be inversely proportional to volume,
at fixed temperature, this is Boyle's law.

Therefore we can use this law to state the following equation
P1V1/T1 = P2V2/T2
in this case temperature is fixed therefore it can be eliminated,
then,
P1V1 = P2V2
standard pressure (P1) is 101 325 Pa
V1 = 375 ml
P2 = 90 000 Pa
substituting these values,
101 325 Pa * 375 ml = 90 000 Pa * V2
                          V2 = 101 325 * 375 / 90 000
                               = 422.18 ml
       After rounding off the final answer is option A - 422 ml

Are the particles in a solid motionless ?
kifflom [539]
No. Just because it is a solid doesn't mean it has no motion. The only way for particles to be motionless is for the solid to reach Absolute Zero (0* K). Which is impossible. So, therefore, it is impossible for particles in a solid to be motionless.

Calculate the pH of a solution prepared by dissolving 0.370 mol of formic acid (HCO2H) and 0.230 mol of sodium formate (NaCO2H)
Veronika [31]

The question is incomplete, here is the complete question:

Calculate the pH of a solution prepared by dissolving 0.370 mol of formic acid (HCO₂H) and 0.230 mol of sodium formate (NaCO₂H) in water sufficient to yield 1.00 L of solution. The Ka of formic acid is 1.77 × 10⁻⁴

a) 2.099

b) 10.463

c) 3.546

d) 2.307

e) 3.952

<u>Answer:</u> The pH of the solution is 3.546

<u>Explanation:</u>

We are given:

Moles of formic acid = 0.370 moles

Moles of sodium formate = 0.230 moles

Volume of solution = 1 L

To calculate the molarity of solution, we use the equation:

\text{Molarity of the solution}=\frac{\text{Moles of solute}}{\text{Volume of solution (in L)}}

To calculate the pH of acidic buffer, we use the equation given by Henderson Hasselbalch:  

pH=pK_a+\log(\frac{[salt]}{[acid]})

pH=pK_a+\log(\frac{[HCOONa]}{[HCOOH]})

pK_a = negative logarithm of acid dissociation constant of formic acid = 3.75

[HCOONa]=\frac{0.230}{1}  

[HCOOH]=\frac{0.370}{1}

pH = ?  

Putting values in above equation, we get:  

pH=3.75+\log(\frac{0.23/1}{0.37/1})\\\\pH=3.54

Hence, the pH of the solution is 3.546
