Why can pure metals conduct electricity?

Chemistry

Romashka-Z-Leto [24]2 years ago

Answer:

The structure and bonding of metals explains their properties:

They are electrical conductors because their delocalised electrons carry electrical charge through the metal.

They are good conductors of thermal energy because their delocalised electrons transfer energy.

They have high melting points and boiling points, because the metallic bonding in the giant structure of a metal is very strong - large amounts of energy are needed to overcome the metallic bonds in melting and boiling.

They are malleable, which means they can be bent and shaped easily. In pure metals, the atoms are arranged in neat layers, and when a force is applied to the metal (eg by being hit with a hammer), the layers of metal atoms can slide over each other, giving the metal a new shape.

myrzilka [38]

Answer:

i) ciclobutano

ii) 3-etil-4-metil ciclopenteno

Explanation:

Toda la idea de la nomenclatura IUPAC es permitir que la estructura de la sustancia se derive de su nombre y viceversa.

La nomenclatura IUPAC es un sistema universalmente aceptado para nombrar compuestos químicos.

los nombres de los compuestos enumerados son;

How does a ketone react with PCl5?,
Reptile [31]

When ketone is reacted with phosphorous pentachloride, chlorination takes place at the carbonyl carbon with substitution of the oxygen atom to give a geminal dichloride (with 2 Cl atoms on same carbon) according to the following equation: 

so we can say that acetone is converted into 2,2-dichloropropane by action of PCl₅

500.0 mL of a gas is collected at 745.0 mm Hg. what what will the volume be at standard pressure
Irina-Kira [14]
This is an application of Boyle's law:
P₁V₁ = P₂V₂. we don't have to convert volume and pressure to standard forms. we can even use the pressure with mmHg
1 atm = 760 mmHg 
V₂ = P₁V₁ / P₂ = 745 x 500 / 760 = 490 ml
Note that here we assume constant temperature
