The metallic bond between gold atoms makes it possible to create extremely thin sheets.

Atoms of the same element or atoms from different elements can form three types of bonds:

  • Covalent bonds.
  • Ionic bonds.
  • Metallic bonds.

In the case of metals such as gold, the most common type of bond is the metallic bond. This bond:

  • Is a strong bond.
  • Involves the free movement of electrons between atoms.
  • Makes metals highly malleable.

These characteristics explain the reason why it is possible to create extremely thin sheets as the material will not easily break due to the strong attraction between the atoms.

How does the type of chemical bonds present in a substance affect the substances properties?
SCORPION-xisa [38]
Once a chemical bond is formed, the atoms are rearranged to form a stronger bond, affecting the hardness, malleability, etc. The stronger the bond, the easier a substance will break, or, if its a liquid, it will resist seperation.

In general, which properties are common to elements within a single group on the periodic table?
blsea [12.9K]
Almost all properties are common to elements within a single group on the periodic table. They react with water in the same way, they have the same number of valence electrons thereby having the same valency, the number of shells in the atom of the element increases by one as we move down the group. 

In general, they have the same chemical properties as chemical properties depend on the number of electrons in the valence shell i.e. the outermost shell in the atom of an element.

Determine the number of charged particles in nucleus of calcium atom then deduce the number of electrons
Dafna1 [17]

Answer:

detail is given below.

Explanation:

The charged particles of nucleus are protons while neutrons are neutral having no charge.

We know that an atom consist of electrons, protons and neutrons. Neutrons and protons are present inside the nucleus while electrons are present out side the nucleus.

Electron has a negative charge and is written as e⁻. The mass of electron is 9.10938356×10⁻³¹ Kg . While mass of proton and neutron is 1.672623×10⁻²⁷Kg and 1.674929×10⁻²⁷ Kg respectively.

Symbol of proton= P⁺  

Symbol of neutron= n⁰  

The number of electron or number of protons are called atomic number while mass number of an atom is sum of protons and neutrons.

one proton contribute 1 amu to the total weight. There are 20 protons and 20 neutrons in Ca thus its atomic mass is 40 amu.

While the atomic number is 20.
