Explain why diamond has a high melting point

Chemistry
2 answers:
Rainbow [258]2 years ago
8 0

In diamond 4 carbon atoms are strongly bonded with covalent bond and they form giant covalent structure which requires large amount of energy to break down, that’s why diamond has a high melting point. It does not conduct electricity.

Answer:

Each carbon atom is covalently bonded to 4 other carbon atoms in diamond. A large amount of energy is required to split these atoms apart. This is because of the fact that covalent bonds are strong.

Complete and balance the chemical equations for the precipitation reactions, if any, between the following pairs of reactants, a
Crank

Explanation:

a. Pb(NO_3)_2(aq) + Na_2SO_4(aq) → ?

Pb(NO_3)_2(aq) + Na_2SO_4(aq)\rightarrow PbSO_4(s)+2NaNO_3(aq)

Pb(NO_3)_2(aq)\rightarrow Pb^{2+}(aq)+2NO_3^{-}(aq)

Na_2SO_4(aq)\rightarrow 2Na^++SO_4^{2-}(aq)

Pb^{2+}(aq)+2NO_3^{-}(aq)+2Na^++SO_4^{2-}(aq)\rightarrow PbSO_4(s)+2Na^++2NO_3^{-}(aq)

Removing common ions from both sides, we get the net ionic equation:

Pb^{2+}(aq)+SO_4^{2-}(aq)\rightarrow PbSO_4(s)

b. NiCl_2(aq) + NH_4NO_3(aq) →

NiCl_2(aq) + NH4NO_3(aq) \rightarrow Ni(NO_3)_2+NH_4Cl(aq)

No precipitation is occuring.

c. Fe_Cl2(aq) + Na_2S(aq) →

FeCl_2(aq) + Na_2S(aq)\rightarrow FeS(s)+2NaCl(aq)

FeCl_2(aq)\rightarrow Fe^{2+}(aq)+2Cl^{-}(aq)

Na_2S(aq)\rightarrow 2Na^++S{2-}(aq)

Fe^{2+}(aq)+2Cl^{-}(aq)+2Na^++S^{2-}(aq)\rightarrow FeS(s)+2Na^++2Cl^{-}(aq)

Removing common ions from both sides, we get the net ionic equation:

Fe^{2+}(aq)+S^{2-}(aq)\rightarrow FeS(s)

d.MgSO_4(aq) + BaCl_2(aq) →

MgSO4(aq) + BaCl2(aq)\rightarrow BaSO_4(s)+MgCl_2

MgSO_4(aq)\rightarrow Mg^{2+}(aq)+SO_4^{2-}(aq)

BaCl_2(aq)\rightarrow Ba^{2+}+2Cl^{-}(aq)

Mg^{2+}(aq)+SO_4^{2-}(aq)+Ba^{2+}+2Cl^{-}(aq)(aq)\rightarrow BaSO_4(s)+Mg^{2+}(aq)+2Cl^{-}(aq)

Removing common ions from both sides, we get the net ionic equation:

Ba^{2+}(aq)+SO_4^{2-}(aq)\rightarrow BaSO_4(s)

According to bohr's model of the atom in which orbitals do electrons have the least energy
sasho [114]
According to Bohr's model of the atom, the higher the orbital in which the electrons are found, the higher their energy or excitation state. Therefore, the electrons with the least amount of energy are those at the lowest orbitals, which are closer to the nucleus. 
These orbitals are characterized by 4 quantum numbers, namely the principal quantum number (n), orbital angular momentum quantum number (l), the magnetic quantum number (ml), and the electron spin quantum number (ms). The principal quantum number reflects the distance of the electrons from the nucleus with n=1 as the orbital closest to the nucleus. Thus, according to Bohr's model, electrons in the orbital with n=1 have the lowest energy.
