Answer: Option (D) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Metals are the species which have excess of electrons. Metals are placed from left side to more than middle side of the periodic table.

Some properties of metals are as follows.

  • Metals are good conductors of heat and electricity.
  • They are malleable and ductile i.e, they can be drawn into thin sheets and wires.
  • They are lustrous in appearance.
  • Metals generally have high melting point.

Thus, we can conclude that out of the given options, characteristic they are malleable is typical of metals.

Calculate the specific heat capacity for a 15.3-g sample of gold that absorbs 87.2 J when its temperature increases from 35.0 °C
diamong [38]

Answer:

The specific heat of gold is 0.129 J/g°C

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Mass of gold  = 15.3 grams

Heat absorbed = 87.2 J

Initial temperature = 35.0 °C

Final temperature = 79.2 °C

Step 2:

Q = m*c*ΔT

⇒ Q =the heat absorbed = 87.2 J

⇒ m = the mass of gold = 15.3 grams

⇒ c = the specific heat of gold = TO BE DETERMINED

⇒ ΔT = The change in temperature = T2 - T1 = 79.2 - 35.0 = 44.2 °C

87.2 J = 15.3g * c * 44.2°C

c = 87.2 / (15.3 * 44.2)

c = 0.129 J/g°C

The specific heat of gold is 0.129 J/g°C

barxatty [35]

Answer:

A. PO43-

Explanation:

in the given is buffer . so H2PO4- and HPO42- both are present with equal concentration . Na+ is spectator ion it is also present in the concentration higher than the given species above .

but PO4-3 is not present . so it is lowest concentration

What term best describes the arrangement of particles in an ionic compound?
weeeeeb [17]
The arrangement of particles that make up an ionic compound would be an ionic lattice type of crystal arrangement. An ionic lattice type of structure will be formed due to many of the ionic bonds formed between the oppositely charged ions of the metal and nonmetal.
