How do nonmetals conduct electricity? well . by giving up electrons . poorly . better than metals.

1 answer:

Usually poorly, especially at room temperature for most of them. The gases do not conduct. Some that are marginally non metals (silicon germanium and graphite) conduct passably well but do not conduct as well as copper or silver.

Non metals do not have easily freed electrons and that is why they do not conduct electricity.

The point on a magnet Where magnet effect is strongest is called

notsponge [240]

Pole

Explanation:

A magnetic pole is the point on a magnet where a magnet effect is strongest. Around a magnet, there are magnetic fields.

The magnetic fields are force fields that leaves the north poles and enters through the south.
The pole is where magnetic effects are the strongest.
It is around the pole that the strongest magnetic effect on a magnet or magnetic material is felt.
The strength of magnetic fields are strongest at the poles.

The reaction of 5.40 g of carbon with excess O2 yields 13.6 g of CO2. What is the percent yield of this reaction?

vazorg [7]

C + O2= CO2
$n = \frac{m}{mw}$
$n = \frac{5.4}{12} \\ n = 0.45 \: mol \: of \: carbon$
$n = \frac{13.6}{12 + 16 \times 2} \\ n = \frac{13.6}{44} \\ n = 0.31 \: mol \: of \: carbon \: dioxide$
CO2 is limit
5.4-3.72= 1.68 g of C is excess
5.4 g = 100%
3.72 g = x
x=68.9 %
