What are molecules, and how are the properties of molecules different from the atoms they come from? Give an example.
goldenfox [79]

Molecule, a group of two or more atoms that form the smallest identifiable unit into which a pure substance can be divided and still retain the composition and chemical properties of that substance.

While Atoms are single neutral particles,

Molecules are neutral particles made of two or more atoms bonded together.

Exaplmes for molecules

H2O (water)

N2 (nitrogen)

O3 (ozone)

CaO (calcium oxide)

C6H12O6 (glucose, a type of sugar)

NaCl (table salt

And examples for atoms

Neon (Ne)

Hydrogen (H)

Argon (Ar)

Iron (Fe)

Calcium (Ca)

Deuterium, an isotope of hydrogen that has one proton and one neutron.

Plutonium (Pu)

F-, a fluorine anion.

A sample of gas has a volume of 215 cm3 at 23.5 degrees Celsius and 84.6kPa what volume will the gas occupy at stp
miss Akunina [59]

The volume of the gas that occupy at STP is 165. 28 cm^3

calculation

by use of combined gas law that is P1V1/T1=P2V2/T2, where

P1=84.6 kpa

T1=23.5 +273=296.5 K

V1=215 cm^3

At STP T= 273 K and P= 101.325 Kpa

therefore p2 = 101.325 Kpa and T2 = 272 K V2=?

by making V2 the subject of the formula V2 =T2P1V1/P2T1

V2 = 273 K x 84.6 Kpa x 215 cm^3/ 101,.325 Kpa x296.5 K =165.28 cm^3

What characteristics of a metallic bond explains some of the properties of metals
d1i1m1o1n [39]

Answer:

See Explanation

Explanation:

Metallic bonds involve attraction between electrons and positively charged metal ions. The metals are ionized and electrons form a sea of valence electrons. These loosely bound electrons surround the nuclei of the metals.

The presence of this sea of electrons explains the fact that metals conduct electricity and heat due to the free valence electrons.

Due to the nature of the bonding between metal atoms,metals are malleable and ductile.

Due to the strong electrostatic interaction between metal ions and electrons, the metallic bond is very strong and is very difficult to break thereby accounting for the greater strength of metals as the size of the metallic ion decreases.

Why does water conduct electricity but only very poorly
e-lub [12.9K]

Answer:

actually pure water doesnt conduct electricity, any salts or impurities dissolved in water enable it to conduct electricity, When salts are dissolved in water, they separate into different electrically charged atoms called ions. Sodium chloride (NaCl), breaks up into positive Na ions and negative Cl ions.
