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

andrezito [222]
This is a synthesis reaction, where 2 reactants combine to form a single product.

In decomposition, 1 reactant splits into 2 products.
In single replacement, one element swaps with another, in the form A + BC = B + AC.
In double displacement two elements swap, in the form AB + CD = AD + CB
In neutralization (a kind of double displacement), an acid and a base react to form water and a salt.

Copper(II) sulfate pentahydrate, CuSO4 ·5 H2O, (molar mass 250 g/mol) can be dehydrated by repeated heating in a crucible. Which
prohojiy [21]

Answer:

The water lost is 36% of the total mass of the hydrate

Explanation:

<u>Step 1:</u> Data given

Molar mass of CuSO4*5H2O = 250 g/mol

Molar mass of CuSO4 = 160 g/mol

<u>Step 2:</u> Calculate mass of water lost

Mass of water lost = 250 - 160 = 90 grams

<u>Step 3:</u> Calculate % water

% water = (mass water / total mass of hydrate)*100 %

% water = (90 grams / 250 grams )*100% = 36 %

We can control this by the following equation

The hydrate has 5 moles of H2O

5*18. = 90 grams

(90/250)*100% = 36%

(160/250)*100% = 64 %

The water lost is 36% of the total mass of the hydrate

You have a ballon filled with hydrogen gas which keeps it at a constant pressure, regardless the volume. The initial volume of t
abruzzese [7]

Answer:

619°C

Explanation:

Given data:

Initial volume of gas = 736 mL

Initial temperature = 15.0°C

Final volume of gas = 2.28 L

Final temperature = ?

Solution:

Initial volume of gas = 736 mL (736mL× 1L/1000 mL = 0.736 L)

Initial temperature = 15.0°C (15+273 = 288 K)

The given problem will be solve through the Charles Law.

According to this law, The volume of given amount of a gas is directly proportional to its temperature at constant number of moles and pressure.

Mathematical expression:

V₁/T₁ = V₂/T₂

V₁ = Initial volume

T₁ = Initial temperature

V₂ = Final volume  

T₂ = Final temperature

Now we will put the values in formula.

V₁/T₁ = V₂/T₂

T₂ = T₁V₂/V₁  

T₂ = 2.28 L × 288 K / 0.736 L

T₂ = 656.6 L.K / 0.736 L

T₂ = 892.2 K

K to °C:

892.2 - 273.15 = 619°C
