What is one similarity between metals and metalloids?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Arturiano [62]3 years ago
4 0

The correct answer that explains similarities between metal and Metalloids as regards the question is They both conduct electricity

  • Metalloids can be regarded as elements that are  similar to metals, this is because they posses valence orbitals which is described as highly delocalized over macroscopic volumes.

  • As a result of this they can serve as electrical conductors.

  • metalloids posses small energy gap which is located between the valence band as well as the conduction band, as a result of this they are considered as  intrinsic semiconductors when compare to pure conductors like metal.

  • Example of metal is Calcium, sodium and that of Metalloids are silicon and  germanium

Therefore, metal and Metalloids are similar because of their conductivity of electricity

How many grams of H2 would be formed if 34 grams of carbon reacted with an unlimited amount of H2O? The reaction is
skelet666 [1.2K]
The balanced chemical reaction is:

<span>C + H2O → CO + H2
</span>
We are given the amount of carbon to be used in this reaction. This will be the starting point of the reaction.

<span>34 g C ( 1 mol C / 12.01 g C ) ( 1 mol  H2/ 1 mol C) (2.02 g H2 / 1 mol H2) = 5.72 g H2

Apparently, the correct answer is not in the given choices.</span>

The elements of which group in the periodic table release the most energy by gaining an electron?
Mademuasel [1]

Answer:

The halogens located in group 17

Explanation:

The change in energy of a neutral atom when an electron is added is known as electron affinity. <em>Fluorine (F), chlorine (Cl), bromine (Br), iodine (I), and astatine (At) are known as halogens and conform the group 17 of the periodic table, the group that presents higher electron affinity.</em> This characteristic happens because of their atomic structures, it is easier for them to gain electrons because they are closer to form octets.

Here I present you halogens' electron affinities values:

  • Fluorine (F) -328 kJ mol-1
  • Chlorine (Cl) -349 kJ mol-1
  • Bromine (Br) -324 kJ mol-1
  • Iodine (I) -295 kJ mol-1

<em>The use of negative signs is to indicate the RELEASE of energy.</em>

I hope you find this information useful and interesting! Good luck!

What is true about a solution of 1.0 M HF?
DanielleElmas [232]
