Carbon has a one-of-a-kind ability to make covalent bonds with a wide range of other atoms. It has the ability to form bonds with other carbon atoms as well as atoms from other elements. Carbon frequently forms polymers as a result of this capacity. A polymer is a big molecule composed of numerous smaller molecules linked together by covalent bonds.

5. Why are lonic compounds good conductors of electricity?
ziro4ka [17]

Answer:

The options are unclear, however, the correct option is:

Aqueous solutions of ionic compounds cause to dissociate, hence, ions are free to conduct electricity

Explanation:

Ionic compounds are compounds formed from ions (charged atoms). For example, NaCl is an ionic compound from the following ions; Na+ (cation) and Cl- (anion). One characteristics of ionic compounds is their ability to dissociate into the ions that form them when in an aqueous solution i.e. NaCl will dissociate into Na+ and Cl- when in an aqueous solution.

These disssociated ions are free to conduct electricity, hence, making ionic compounds good conductors of electricity.

What is the volume of a 5.30g piece of aluminum? The density for aluminum is 2.70mL
Makovka662 [10]

Answer:

1.96mL

Explanation:

Density = mass/volume, and rearranged to solve for volume, volume = mass/density.

So:

volume = 5.30g/2.70g/mL = 1.96mL (assuming your unit was g/mL for density)

Which set of numbers gives the correct possible values of l for n = 2
Paha777 [63]
HEY THERE!!

For a given principal quantum number or n, the corresponding angular quantum number or l is equivalent to a range between 0 and (n-1) .

This means that the angular quantum number for a principal quantum number of 2 is equivalent to:

l = 0 -> (n-1) = 0 -> (2-1) = 0 -> 1

So the answer is 0, 1

Finding the pH for [H+] = 9.4 * 10-3 M?
saul85 [17]

Answer:

pH = 2.0

Explanation:

To find the pH of a solution, take the -log[H+]. In this case, the -log(9.4 x 10^-3) equals 2.02687 which makes 2.0 when accounting for significant figures.
