Explain why metals can conduct electricity and heat well

1 answer:

8 0

Electric current is the flow of electrons in a wire. In metals, the outer electrons of the atoms belong to a 'cloud' of delocalised electrons. They are no longer firmly held by a specific atom, but instead they can move freely through the lattice of positive metal ions. ... Metals are good conductors of heat.

This is google's answer for the last question

Explanation:

The kinetic energy increases as the particles move faster. The potential energy increases as the particles move farther apart. How are thermal energy and temperature related? When the temperature of an object increases, the average kinetic energy of its particles increases.

a chemist wishes to mix some pure acid with some water to produce 16L of a solution that is 30% acid how much pure acid and how

Aloiza [94]

<u>Answer:</u> The volume of acid and water that must be mixed will be 4.8 L and 11.2 L

<u>Explanation:</u>

We are given:

Volume of mixture = 16 L

Percent of acid present = 30 %

Calculating the percentage of acid present in the mixture:

$\Rightarrow 16\times \frac{30}{100}=4.8L$

The mixture is made entirely of acid and water.

Volume of acid in the mixture = 4.8 L

Volume of water in the mixture = 16 - 4.8 = 11.2 L

Hence, the volume of acid and water that must be mixed will be 4.8 L and 11.2 L

What are the characteristics of electromagnetic waves?

CaHeK987 [17]

Answer: Electromagnetic waves are transverse in nature as they propagate by varying the electric and magnetic fields such that the two fields are perpendicular to each other.

Accelerated charges are responsible to produce electromagnetic waves.

Draw the structure(s) of the major organic product(s) of the following reaction. 1. lithium diisopropylamide / hexane 2. 1 eq. C

Jobisdone [24]

Answer:

See explanation below

Explanation:

You are not providing the starting material, however, I manage to find a similar question to this, so I'm gonna use it as a basis to help you answer yours.

Now let's analyze what is happening in the reaction so we can predict the final product.

We have a ketone here, reacting at first with LDA. This is a very strong base that is commonly used in reactions with ketones and aldehydes to promove a condensation. To do this, as LDA is a strong base it will occur firts an acid base reaction, substracting the most acidic hydrogen in the molecule (Which in this case, is the Beta hydrogen of the carbonile). This will cause an enolate formation.

Then, this enolate will react with the CH3I and form a new product. The final result would be a ketone with a methyl group now attached. In the picture 2, you have the mechanism and final product.

Hope this helps
