Which condition increases the number of collisions between reactant molecules in a given volume?
Nezavi [6.7K]

Answer:

Increasing Surface Area

Explanation:

A greater surface area (meaning more, smaller particles) allows for more opportunity for particles to collide.  On the other hand, decreasing temperature and removing a catalyst would only decrease the number of collisions, and the clumping option doesn't make much sense.  Hope this helps!

Which of the following best explains why ionic crystals are brittle?​
Natalka [10]

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.

k0ka [10]

The element is Sodium with an atomic number of 11 and electrovalent bonding takes place when it comes near an atom having seven valence electrons.

<h3>What is Electrovalent bonding?</h3>

This is also referred to as ionic bonding and involves the transfer of atoms of an element to another.

In order for both of them to achieve a stable octet configuration, sodium donates one atom to the element seven valence electrons.
