What is the name for a substance made of billions of oppositely charged ions joined together?

Chemistry
1 answer:
bija089 [108]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Ionic substance

Explanation:

An ionic substance is formed when oppositely charged ions link up to form an infinitely large lattice structure that can only be described in terms of unit cells.

Ionic substances may consist of billions of oppositely charged ions. Ionic substances are hard, have high melting and boiling points and do not conduct electricity in the solid state because the ions are not free in the solid state.

However, in solution or molten state, the substance conducts electricity since the ions which are the charge carriers are now mobile.

What is the energy of a photon of green light whose frequency is 6.85 X 1014/seC?
Anvisha [2.4K]

Frequency of photon = is 6.85 X 10¹⁴ sec⁻¹

Energy of photon , E = hv

where h is Planck's constant, v is the frequency of photon

E = 6.63 × 10⁻³⁴ J.s x 6.85 X 10¹⁴ s⁻¹

E = 4.54 x 10⁻¹⁹ J

Therefore, the energy of a photon of green light is 4.54 x 10⁻¹⁹ J.

A series circuit has two 5.0-ohm resistors and a power source of 9.0 volts. How will the current be affected and what will it be
miskamm [114]
The formula for solving current given with resistance and power source or voltage is shown below:
I = V/R  

When two 5 ohms resistors are in series, we have:
I = 9 volts / (5+5 ohms)
I = 0.9 amperes

When it is being added with another 7.5 resistors, we have:
I = 9 volts / (5+5+7.5 ohms)
I = 0.529 ampere

The answer to the question is the letter "D. decrease; 0.51 amps".

Heat and pressure deep in the earth change shale to slate. Why does this happen?
dedylja [7]

Answer:

Because of the ground above and the molten iron core.

Explanation:

As you go deeper into the earth you have more and more of the earth above you that applies pressure on you. The heat near the very top of the plate is relatively low and it decreases by a little as you go down. But once you start to go down into the earth by hundreds of meters then the temperature starts to rise and it rises pretty quickly due to the heat being transferred from the molten iron outer core of the earth.
