Because their molecules are more tightly packed. Massdensity = ---------- Volume
So more densely packed molecules means more mass per unit volume. Hence metals are denser than non-metals.
Answer:
boron (B), silicon (Si), germanium (Ge), arsenic (As), antimony (Sb), tellurium (Te), polonium (Po) and astatine (At)
Explanation:
metalloids are elements that are in between the metals and nonmetals. they are in between because they have properties of both metals and nonmetals.
you can search "metalloids on the periodic table" and go to images to see what i mean :)
Answer:
Boron
Explanation:
An atom consist of electron, protons and neutrons. Protons and neutrons are present with in nucleus while the electrons are present out side the nucleus.
All these three subatomic particles construct an atom. A neutral atom have equal number of proton and electron. In other words we can say that negative and positive charges are equal in magnitude and cancel the each other. For example if neutral atom has 6 protons than it must have 6 electrons. The sum of neutrons and protons is the mass number of an atom while the number of protons are number of electrons is the atomic number of an atom.
For example
In given atomic model we can see that there are five electrons out side the nucleus it means this atomic model is of that element which have atomic number 5 and it is boron.
It has 5 electron 5 proton and 6 neutrons.
It means its atomic number is five and mass number is 5+6 = 11
B, turns red litmus paper to blue
Answer:
See explanation
Explanation:
A. Constitutional or structural isomers have the same molecular formula but different structural formulas.
B. Conformational isomers are compounds having the same atom to atom connectivity but differ by rotation about one or more single bonds.
C. Stereo isomers are compounds having the same molecular mass and atom to atom connectivity but different arrangement of atoms and groups in space.
I. Enantiomers are stereo isomers (optical isomers particularly) that are non-superimposable mirror images of each other.
II. Diasteromers are optical isomers that are not mirror images of each other.
Both diasteromers and enantiomers are types of optical isomers which in turn is one of the types of stereo isomers.
Stereo isomers differ from conformational isomers in that the arrangement of atoms in stereo isomers is permanent while conformational isomers results from free rotations in molecules about single bonds.
