Which contains more molecules; a mole of Chlorine gas (Cl2 ) or a mole of glucose (C6H1206) ?

1 answer:

7 0

This is a tricky question. a mole of any compound contains the same number of molecules of that certain compound. so, one mole of chlorine gas has the same number of molecules as one mole of glucose, which is 6.02 x 10^23.

this is avogadro's number and it applies for any mole of molecules.

the question is tricky because it is like asking. " what weighs more, a pound of feathers or a pound of rocks?" the both weigh the same, a pound. when ewe talking about moles, same as pounds, it is a quantity unit. one mole will aways be equal to 6.02 x 10^23 molecules.

6 At STP, which element is a good conductor of electricity?(1) chlorine (3) silver

alexgriva [62]

For an object to conduct electricity it should have free or delocalised electrons that are free to pass the charge and hence take part in conducting electricity.
From the given choices
Chlorine is a halogen existing as a diatomic gas. Iodine too is a halogen and 2 Iodine atoms held together by covalent bond. Cl - Cl bonds and I-I bonds are covalent bonds. the outer electrons of Cl and I take part in covalent bonds therefore they are fixed and not free to move about. therefore no free electrons to conduct electricity.
Sulfur is a solid that too is held together by covalent bonds so it does not have free electrons to conduct electricity.

Silver is a metal and a general property of metals are their ability to conduct electricity.
metal structure are metal ions tightly packed together. when the metal atoms are tightly packed their valence electrons are removed and delocalised. Positively charged metal ions are embedded in a sea of delocalised electrons.
therefore there are delocalised electrons that can conduct electricity

answer is 3) silver

What types of fields does moving electricity produce?

Lena [83]

The electric and magnetic fields are generated by moving electric charges, the electric and magnetic fields interact with each other, the electric and magnetic fields produce forces on electric charges, the electric charges move in space.
