Explain why solid sodium chloride does not conduct electricity but does so and melting

Chemistry

Savatey [412]3 years ago

So ionic compounds have high melting and boiling points. Conductive when liquid - Ions are charged particles, but ionic compounds can only
conduct electricity if their ions are free to move. Ionic compounds do not conduct electricity when they are solid - only when dissolved in water or melted .

kap26 [50]

Answer:

Groups are numbered 1–18 from left to right. The elements in group 1 are known as the alkali metals; those in group 2 are the alkaline earth metals; those in 15 are the pnictogens; those in 16 are the chalcogens; those in 17 are the halogens; and those in 18 are the noble gases.

How many moles of H2O are produced when 64.0 g C2H2 burns in oxygen
Gnoma [55]
The balanced chemical reaction will be: 

C2H2 + 5/2O2 = 2CO2 + H2O

We are given the amount of C2H2 being burned. This will be our starting point.

64.0 g C2H2 (1 mol C2H2 / 26.02 g C2H2) (1 mol H2O/1mol C2H2) ( 18.02 g H2O/1mol H2O) = 44.32 g H2O.

Thus, the answer is 44.32 g H2O.

Difference between atom and ion <br>plz plz answer ​
hjlf

Answer:

Pls mark me brainliest

Explanation:

Atoms are neutral; they contain the same number of protons as electrons. By definition, an ion is an electrically charged particle produced by either removing electrons from a neutral atom to give a positive ion or adding electrons to a neutral atom to give a negative ion. When an ion is formed, the number of protons does not change.

Neutral atoms can be turned into positively charged ions by removing one or more electrons. A neutral sodium atom, for example, contains 11 protons and 11 electrons. By removing an electron from this atom we get a positively charged Na+ ion that has a net charge of +1.

Atoms that gain extra electrons become negatively charged. A neutral chlorine atom, for example, contains 17 protons and 17 electrons. By adding one more electron we get a negatively charged Cl- ion with a net charge of -1.

The gain or loss of electrons by an atom to form negative or positive ions has an enormous impact on the chemical and physical properties of the atom. Sodium metal, for example, which consists of neutral sodium atoms, bursts into flame when it comes in contact with water. Neutral chlorine atoms instantly combine to form Cl2 molecules, which are so reactive that entire communities are evacuated when trains carrying chlorine gas derail. Positively charged Na+ and negatively charged Cl- ions are so unreactive that we can safely take them into our bodies whenever we salt our food.
