Explain why diamond has a high melting point

Chemistry

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.

Which of the answer choices correctly describes Le Châtlier's principle?
almond37 [142]
<h3><u>Answer</u>;</h3>

A. When a reaction is at chemical equilibrium, a change in the system will cause the system to shift in the direction that will balance the change and help the reaction regain chemical equilibrium.

<h3><u>Explanation</u>;</h3>
  • Le Chatelier's principle states that when a change or a "stress" is placed on a system that is at equilibrium, the system will shift in such a way to relieve that change or stress.
  • The stresses include; changing the concentration of reactants or products, altering the temperature in the system and changing the pressure of the system.
  • Therefore; <u><em>when a chemical reaction is at equilibrium and experiences a change in pressure, temperature, or concentration of products or reactants, the equilibrium shifts in the opposite direction to offset the change. </em></u>

What does the 32.06 represent?
lana [24]

The 32.06 represent The atomic mass, the average number of protons & neutrons

<h3>Further explanation </h3>

The Atomic Number (Z) indicates the number of protons in an atom of an element. If the atom is neutral then the number of protons will be equal to the number of electrons. So the atomic number can also indicate the number of electrons.

So atomic number = number of protons = number of electrons

Mass Number (A) is the sum of protons and neutrons

Mass Number (A) = Number of protons + Number of Neutrons

So that the relationship between atomic numbers and mass numbers can be formulated as follows:

Atomic Number (Z) = Mass Number (A) - Number of Neutrons

In the following element notation,

\large {{{Z} \atop {A}} \right X}

X = symbol of elemental atom

A = mass number

   = number of protons + number of neutrons

Z = atomic number

   = number of protons = number of electrons, on neutral elements
