Why are metals malleable,ductile,and good conductors

1 answer:

7 0

The energy is transferred throughout the rest of the metal by the moving electrons. Metals are described as
malleable (can be beaten into sheets) and ductile (can be pulled out into wires). This is because of the ability of the atoms to roll over each other into new positions without breaking the metallic bond.

aev [14]

Answer is: reducin agent in this reaction is thiosulfate (S₂O₃²⁻).
Balanced chemical reaction: 2S₂O₃²⁻(aq) + I₂(aq) → S₄O₆²⁻(aq) + 2I⁻(aq).
Reducing agent is element or compound who loose electrons in chemical reaction. Sulfur in thiosulfate change oxidation number from +2 to +5 tetrathionate anion (two sulfur atoms in the ion have oxidation state 0 and two atoms have oxidation state +5).

Answer:

Photosynthetic bacteria must take in Carbon Dioxide to live, and they release Oxygen . Animals must take Oxygen to live, and they release Carbon Dioxide.

Explanation:

Photosynthesis:

It is the process in which in the presence of sun light and chlorophyll by using carbon dioxide and water plants produce the oxygen and glucose.

Carbon dioxide + water + energy → glucose + oxygen

water is supplied through the roots, carbon dioxide collected through stomata and sun light is capture by chloroplast.

Chemical equation:

6H₂O + 6CO₂ + energy → C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂

Photosynthetic bacteria perform same function as plants. These bacteria contain light harvesting pigments absorb carbon dioxide and release oxygen.

While animals take oxygen and release carbon dioxide to live. This respiration process is opposite to the photosynthesis.

Glucose + oxygen → carbon dioxide + water + 38ATP

I think it's 2:1 or 2:1:4. I mostly think it's 2:1 though. (:
