Answer:
Ionic or electrovalent bonds
Explanation:
Ionic or electrovalent bonds are interatomic or intramolecular bonds which are formed between two kinds of atoms having a large electronegativity difference usually 2.1.
Electronegativity is the property that combines the ability of an atom to gain or lose electrons. It is expressed as the tendency with which atoms of elements attracts valence electrons in a chemical bond.
In this bond type, a metal transfers its electrons to a more electronegative atom which is a non-metal.
a pure compound because an element is untouched and is just itself
Answer:
A metalloid is a substance that has both the qualities of a metal and a non metal. Metals conduct electricity and have a high melting point.The element described does not conduct electricity until temperatures are reduced therefore it is not a metal. The fact that conduction occurs when temperatures are reduced means that it is not a non metal because non metals do not conduct electricity at all. Therefore the element is a metaloid because it exhibits some properties of a metal and others of a non mental.
Explanation:
Had to look for the options and here is my answer.
When we say that a redox reaction is spontaneous, this would mean that there is a formation of positive voltage <span>across the electrodes of a voltaic cell. Therefore, the system that this kind of reaction produces electrical energy is in a GALVANIC CELL. Hope this helps.</span>
