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:
The atom will have a negative charge.
Explanation:
Electrons are subatomic particles with a negative charge, protons are subatomic particles with a negative charge, and neutrons have no charge. When a neutral atom's balance is disrupted by an extra electron, the atom becomes negatively charged.
The number of neon moles that occupy a volume of 14.3 l at STP is calculated as follows
At STP 1 mole = 22.4 liters
what about 14.3 liters
by cross multiplication
= (1 mole x 14.3 l)/22.4 l =0.638 moles of neon
Answer:
0.21 M. (2 sig. fig.)
Explanation:
The molarity of a solution is the number of moles of the solute in each liter of the solution. The unit for molarity is M. One M equals to one mole per liter.
How many moles of NaOH in the original solution?
,
where
is the number of moles of the solute in the solution.
is the concentration of the solution. 
for the initial solution.
is the volume of the solution. For the initial solution, 
for the initial solution.
.
What's the concentration of the diluted solution?
.
- is the number of solute in the solution. Diluting the solution does not influence the value of .
for the diluted solution. - Volume of the diluted solution:
.
Concentration of the diluted solution:
.
The least significant number in the question comes with 2 sig. fig. Keep more sig. fig. than that in calculations but round the final result to 2 sig. fig. Hence the result: 0.021 M.
