Answer: IONIC EQUATION.

Explanation:

A chemical equation is defined as the form by which a chemical reaction is represented mathematically. These are written in the form of symbols and chemical formulas of reactants and products which are taking part in the chemical reaction. A chemical equation can be written in two forms, these include:

--> MOLECULAR EQUATION: in this type of equations, the compounds are written and represented in a molecular form. This is sometimes referred to as a balanced equation.

--> IONIC EQUATION: This is a type of chemical equation in which the electrolytes in aqueous solution are expressed as dissociated ions. A typical illustrated example is seen in the reaction between AgNO3(aq) and NaCl(aq) :

Ag+(aq) + NO3-(aq) + Na+(aq) + Cl-(aq) → AgCl(s) + Na+(aq) + NO3-(aq)

The (aq) written in the above equation signifies they are in aqueous solution.

kogti [31]

All metals have similar properties BUT, there can be wide variations in melting point, boiling point, density, electrical conductivity and physical strength.To explain the physical properties of metals like iron or sodium we need a more sophisticated picture than a simple particle model of atoms all lined up in close packed rows and layers, though this picture is correctly described as another example of a giant lattice held together by metallic bonding.A giant metallic lattice – the crystal lattice of metals consists of ions (NOT atoms) surrounded by a 'sea of electrons' that form the giant lattice (2D diagram above right).The outer electrons (–) from the original metal atoms are free to move around between the positive metal ions formed (+).These 'free' or 'delocalised' electrons from the outer shell of the metal atoms are the 'electronic glue' holding the particles together.There is a strong electrical force of attraction between these free electrons (mobile electrons or 'sea' of delocalised electrons) (–) and the 'immobile' positive metal ions (+) that form the giant lattice and this is the metallic bond. The attractive force acts in all directions.Metallic bonding is not directional like covalent bonding, it is like ionic bonding in the sense that the force of attraction between the positive metal ions and the mobile electrons acts in every direction about the fixed (immobile) metal ions of the metal crystal lattice, but in ionic lattices none of the ions are mobile. a big difference between a metal bond and an ionic bond.Metals can become weakened when repeatedly stressed and strained.This can lead to faults developing in the metal structure called 'metal fatigue' or 'stress fractures'.If the metal fatigue is significant it can lead to the collapse of a metal structure.
