What is the reason behind that the melting and boiling point of iron is more than that of sodium?

1 answer:

3 0

Answer:

As metals are giant lattice structures, the number of electrostatic forces to be broken is extremely large, and so metals have high melting and boiling points. This means that the melting point and boiling point of metals are more similar to those for ionic compounds than for covalent substances.

Sodium metal is sometimes used as a cooling agent in heat exchange units because of its relatively high molar heat capacity of 2

IgorC [24]

Answer:

The specific heat of sodium is 1,23J/g°C

Explanation:

Using the atomic weight of sodium (23g/mol) and the atomic weight definition, we have that each mole of the substance has 23 grams of sodium.

starting from this, we use the atomic weight of sodium to convert the units from J / mol ° C to J / g ° C

$28,2 \frac{J}{mol C} x \frac{1mol}{23g} = 1,23 J/g C$

What geometry does VSEPR predict for the central atom in PF5

ddd [48]

so you can see those fluorine atoms have really spread out around the central phosphorus atom. this gives us a trigonal bi-pyramidal molecular geometry for pf5.
