Each carbon atom is covalently bonded to four other carbon atoms. A lot of energy is needed to separate the atoms in diamond. This is because covalent bonds are strong, and diamond contains very many covalent bonds. This makes diamond's melting point and boiling point very high.
Conduction
In metals, the electrons of each atom are delocalized, which means they are free to move about in the structure of the metal. When heat is applied at one end of the metal, the electrons there are excited and collide with surrounding particles, transferring their energy to them. This is what makes metals very good conductors of both heat and electricity.
Answer:
=16.49 L
Explanation:
Using the equation
P1= 0.6atm V1= 30L, T1= 25+273= 298K, P2= 1atm, V2=? T2= 273
P1V1/T1= P2V2/T2
0.6×30/298= 1×V2/273
V2=16.49L
