Answer:The structure of solids can be described as if they were three-dimensional analogs of a piece of wallpaper. Wallpaper has a regular repeating design that extends from one edge to the other. Crystals have a similar repeating design, but in this case the design extends in three dimensions from one edge of the solid to the other.
We can unambiguously describe a piece of wallpaper by specifying the size, shape, and contents of the simplest repeating unit in the design. We can describe a three-dimensional crystal by specifying the size, shape, and contents of the simplest repeating unit and the way these repeating units stack to form the crystal.
The simplest repeating unit in a crystal is called a unit cell. Each unit cell is defined in terms of lattice points--the points in space about which the particles are free to vibrate in a crystal.
Answer:
Water moves from the ground or oceans into the atmosphere through a process called evaporation. It's a process that happens on a molecular level when the molecules of water are really energized and rise into the air. Now you've got water in the air and water on land. Organisms all over the Earth need water to survive.
Explanation:
Answer: There are four atoms
Explanation: mass of Cl atom is 35.45 amu
Amount of atoms n = m/M = 142 / 35.45 = 4
Hello my friend thank you
Answer: The reactivity of group 7 decreases as we move down the group because:
Explanation:
The elements of group 7 that is fluorine to iodine. The halogens are non metals and they react with metals to gain electrons. The metals loose electrons and the non metal gains it.
As we move down the group the atomic radius gets bigger( more electron and more proton) and as a result the outer shells move further away from the nucleus.
There is more distance between the negatively charged electrons and positively charged nucleus.
Therefore the force of attraction between the shells and nucleus is lesser or weaker.
This makes attracting an extra electron from metals very difficult which results in weaker reaction.
Consequently, the reactivity decreases as we move down the group 7
