Answer:
Because a molecule, by definition, has a valence of zero
(neutral charge, stable). Also by definition, an ion has a positive
or negative charge or valence and is not stable.
Explanation:
The correct answer of the given question above would be option D. None of the above. When a solid has a low melting point, it is most likely a simple molecular substance. When it is ionic, covalent or metallic, it is already considered as a solid with a high melting point.
Answer:
5.758 is the density of the metal ingot in grams per cubic centimeter.
Explanation:
1) Mass of pycnometer = M = 27.60 g
Mass of pycnometer with water ,m= 45.65 g
Density of water at 20 °C = d =
1 kg = 1000 g


Mass of water ,m'= m - M = 45.65 g - 27.60 g =18.05 g
Volume of pycnometer = Volume of water present in it = V


2) Mass of metal , water and pycnometer = 56.83 g
Mass of metal,M' = 9.5 g
Mass of water when metal and water are together ,m''= 56.83 g - M'- M
56.83 g - 9.5 g - 27.60 g = 19.7 g
Volume of water when metal and water are together = v

Density of metal = d'
Volume of metal = v' =
Difference in volume will give volume of metal ingot.
v' = v - V


Since volume cannot be in negative .
Density of the metal =d'
=
