Explain how copper conducts electricity?

Chemistry
1 answer:
gladu [14]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Copper is a metal made up of copper atoms closely packed together. As a result, the electrons can move freely through the metal. For this reason, they are known as free electrons. They are also known as conduction electrons because they help copper be a good conductor of heat and electricity.

What is the total number of valence electrons in an atom of germanium in the ground state?
Shalnov [3]
The answer is (4) 4. Germanium is a main group element in group 4A. Therefore, like carbon, it has 4 valence electrons in the ground state.

A certain intermolecular force is created due to a brief concentration of electrons between nonpolar molecules. What best explai
Paladinen [302]

Answer:

The correct answer is D

Explanation:

Many substances hold their molecules together in the liquid or solid bosom. This is due, in addition to the pressure and temperature conditions, by the forces of Van der Waals. These are still produced in nonpolar molecules by the movement of electrons through the molecules; in extremely short periods of time, their electrons "charge" towards one end of the molecule, producing small dipoles and keeping the molecules very close to each other.

What volume of a 0.550 M solution of potassium hydroxide (KOH) can be made with 19.9 g of potassium hydroxide?
Natalija [7]

Answer:

0.645 L

Explanation:

To find the volume, you need to (1) convert grams to moles (using the molar mass) and then (2) calculate the volume (using the molarity ratio). The final answer should have 3 sig figs to match the sig figs of the given values.

(Step 1)

Molar Mass (KOH): 39.098 g/mol + 15.998 g/mol + 1.008 g/mol

Molar Mass (KOH): 56.104 g/mol

19.9 grams KOH              1 mole
--------------------------  x  -----------------------  =  0.355 moles KOH
                                     56.014 grams

(Step 2)

Molarity = moles / volume                            <----- Molarity ratio

0.550 M = 0.355 moles / volume                 <----- Insert values

(0.550 M) x volume = 0.355 moles              <----- Multiply both sides by volume

volume = 0.645 L                                          <----- Divide both sides by 0.550

Explain how its electron configuration influences the chemical behavior of an atom.
Llana [10]

More unstable an electron configuration , the more reactive an atom will    become.

How electron configuration influences the chemical behavior of an atom?

This is happen generally, If we look at the Group 1 elements in the periodic table, they are all highly reactive as they have 1 electron in their outermost shells - an unstable configuration in terms of energy.

Also, the noble gases in Group 8 in the periodic table are 'inert' that means they don't react (or more correctly, have an incredibly low reactivity). This is because they have 8 electrons in their outermost shell and thus have no need to acquire or lose electrons to possess a stable electron configuration.

Hence, electron configuration influences the chemical behavior of an atom.
