For an object to conduct electricity it should have free or delocalised electrons that are free to pass the charge and hence take part in conducting electricity.
From the given choices
Chlorine is a halogen existing as a diatomic gas. Iodine too is a halogen and 2 Iodine atoms held together by covalent bond. Cl - Cl bonds and I-I bonds are covalent bonds. the outer electrons of Cl and I take part in covalent bonds therefore they are fixed and not free to move about. therefore no free electrons to conduct electricity.
Sulfur is a solid that too is held together by covalent bonds so it does not have free electrons to conduct electricity.
Silver is a metal and a general property of metals are their ability to conduct electricity.
metal structure are metal ions tightly packed together. when the metal atoms are tightly packed their valence electrons are removed and delocalised. Positively charged metal ions are embedded in a sea of delocalised electrons.
therefore there are delocalised electrons that can conduct electricity
answer is 3) silver
Answer:
±0.005 g
Explanation:
The uncertainty depends on whether the measurement was obtained manually or digitally.
1. Manual
The minimum uncertainty is ±0.01 g.
It may be greater, depending on random or personal errors
2. Digital
Most measurements of mass are now made on digital scales.
A digital device must always round off the measurement it displays.
For example, if the display reads 20.00, the measurement must be between 20.005 and 19.995 (±0.005).
If the measured value were 20.006, the display would round up to 20.01.
If the measured value were 19.994, the display would round down to 19.99.
The uncertainty is ±0.005 g.
The scale shown below would display a mass of 20.00 g
Increasing temperatures in a reaction increases the kinetic energy of the reactant molecules. This causes them to move fast and hence collide with a higher frequency. The higher the rate of collision between the molecules, the faster the reaction.
Answer:
The most acidic solution had a pH of 3.27.
Explanation:
In order to solve this problem we need to keep in mind that the lower the pH of a solution is, the more acidic the solution is.
If among the pH readings across the measured breakfast drinks, the lowest one was 3.27 (as the problem tells us with the range), then that drink was the most acidic one.
Conversely, the least acidic one had a pH of 3.88.
The longer the day, the solar radiation is absorbed and the higher the temperature is.
I hope you have a great rest of your day!
