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

A jar is filled with water, and the lid is closed tightly. The jar is kept at constant temperature. What happens at the surface
nata0808 [166]
If there is a close container with some water, the following procedures take place.
Initially, the system contains only liquid, and air above it. As evaporation starts (the rate of evaporation is constant for the specific temperature of the water), the molecules from the surface of the liquid escape into vapour state, in the confined space above. Therefore, the level of liquid falls.
Then starts the process of condensation. This is the conversion of vapour into liquid. Initially, escaped molecules (from liquid state) move randomly in all directions and collide with one another. As more and more molecules enter the confined space, some slow-moving molecules are pushed back. They collide with the surface of the liquid to reconvert into liquid.
In the initial stages, the rate of evaporation (constant) is more than the rate of condensation because only small number of molecules are present in the gaseous state. The rate of condensation thereafter gradually increases as the number of molecules in the gaseous phase increases. Finally, a stage is reached when the rate of the two opposing processes is the same.
The state where the rate of evaporation becomes equal to the rate of condensation is called a state of dynamic equilibrium. In such a state, although the amount of liquid level in the container does not change, evaporation has not stopped and the system is not at rest. In fact, the number of molecules, which escape from the liquid to the gaseous phase (due to evaporation), becomes equal to the number of vapour molecules that return to the liquid

How do stomata help a plant maintain balance with their environment?
AnnZ [28]

Stomatal pores in plants regulate the amount of water and solutes within them by opening and closing their guard cells using osmotic pressure. In order for plants to produce energy and maintain cellular function, their cells undergo the highly intricate process of photosynthesis .
