5. What is metallic bonding? 6. Why are metals shiny?

Chemistry
1 answer:
cricket20 [7]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Metallic bonding is found in metals and their alloys. When the atoms give up their valence electrons, they form ions. These ions are held together by the electron cloud surrounding them. Metals are shiny because they have a lot of free (i.e. delocalized) electrons that form a cloud of highly mobile negatively charged electrons on and beneath the smooth metal surface in the ideal case. ... In the absence of any external EM field, the charges in the plasma are uniformly distributed within the metal.

Explanation:

In metallic bonding, the electrons are “surrendered” to a common pool and become shared by all the atoms in the solid metal.

Lemur [1.5K]

Answer:

No,  22.09%  is not a valid measurement

Explanation:

Precision has to do with how close a given set of measured values are to each other. It is quite different from accuracy. Accuracy refers to how close a given set of values is to the true value. A given set of values may be precise but not accurate and vice versa.

If we look at the values obtained;  22.09%,  22.15%, 22.18%, 22.23%, 22.25%, the value 22.09% is too far off the other values. This implies that it does not represent a valid measurement since it is not close to all the other values obtained.

During the titration of a diluted vinegar sample with a sodium hydroxide solution, the volume of sodium hydroxide used was less
lapo4ka [179]

Answer:

B and D could be true

Explanation:

A volume of sodium hydroxide less than expected could occurs for two reasons:

The real concentration of sodium hydroxide was higher than expected or the amount of vinegar added was less than expected:

A. The sodium hydroxide solution had been allowed to stand exposed to the air for a long time prior to the titration.  FALSE. A long expose  to the air decreases concentration of the NaOH.

B. The volumetric flask used to prepare the diluted vinegar solution was rinsed with water prior to use.  TRUE. You add a less amount of vinegar doing you require less amount of NaOH than expected.

C. The burette used to deliver the sodium hydroxide solution was rinsed with water prior to use.  FALSE. Thus, you add a less amount of NaOH than expected. To explain the matter, you add more NaOH than expected.

D. The pipette used to deliver the vinegar solution was rinsed with water prior to use. TRUE. Again, you are adding a less amount of Vinegar than expected doing the necessary NaOH during titration less than expected

A body of mass 5kg has momentum of 125kgm/s. find the velocity of the body in motion.
borishaifa [10]

Explanation:We have momemtum = mass X velocity

    p = mv

    OR, p/m = v

    v = (125kg m/s)25kg

    v = 125/25 m/s

       v = 5 m/s

Glucose and hexanoic acid each contain six carbon atoms, but they have completely different properties. Glucose is a nutrient fo
Bogdan [553]

Answer:

Functional groups.

Explanation:

Functional groups are the specific substituents present within the molecules which are responsible for characteristic chemical properties the molecule shows.

Glucose contains alcohol and aldehyde group while hexanoic acid contains carboxylic acid group. <u>The presence different types of the functional groups in both the compounds results in the difference in the properties of both the compounds.</u>

Which of the following sentences describes oxygen at room temperature? (check all that apply)
Degger [83]

At room temperature, O2 is in gaseous state.

a gas has no definite volume or definite shape. It occupies volume of container and attains shape of container only.

Thus

It has no definite volume and takes the shape of its container.

Its particles move fast enough to overcome the attraction between them.: the gas molecules have minimum intermolecular interactions and have high kinetic energy.

It has more energy than it would at a cooler temperature: the kinetic energy of gas molecules increases with increase in temperature. Thus the energy increases with temperature and decreases with decrease in temperature.
