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:
CaCO₃(s) → CaO(s) + CO₂(g)
Explanation:
The decomposition reaction always make two compounds from one.
The products always have simpler chemical structure, originated from a determined compound. This can happens spontaneously or by a third party.
A notable example of decomposition is hydrolysis. As for example the case of water, which decomposes and generates oxygen and hydrogen gas
2H₂O (l) → 2 H₂ (g) + O₂ (g)
In this case, the calium carbonate decomposes into CaO and CO₂
These two, are the products of the decomposition.
Of course, the unique reactant is the Calcium Carbonate
The balanced equation is:
CaCO₃(s) → CaO(s) + CO₂(g)
Answer:
May I assume "ethanol acid is just ethanol (it has one slightly acidic H atom). If so, the molar mass is 46.02 g/mole.
Explanation:
We have 30 cm^3 [30 ml] of 1.0 M (1 mole/liter) [1 dm³ = 1 liter].
That is 1 mole/liter. 30 ml would contain (0.030 liter)*(1 mole/1 liter) = 0.03 moles.
