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

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 .

AveGali [126]

Explanation:

1) refine the specimen into fine powder 2) place the smallest amount you can see in the capillary tube 3) set the voltage to increase exponentially to 200 below the predicted temperature, then adjust so that the temperature rises to 20 per minute 4) report the temperature at which the liquid first appears and the temperature at which the last crystal disappears.

Alex Ar [27]

Answer:

NiS insoluble

Mg₃(PO₄)₂ insoluble

Li₂CO₃ soluble

NH₄Cl soluble

C₁₂H₂₂O₁₁ molecules

Explanation:

<em>Predict whether the following compounds are soluble or insoluble in water.</em>

Based on the solubility rules we can say:

  • NiS: Sulfides of transition metals are highly insoluble.
  • Mg₃(PO₄)₂: All phosphates (except those with metals of Group 1) are insoluble so Mg₃(PO₄)₂ is insoluble.
  • Li₂CO₃: all salts of metals of Group 1 are soluble so Li₂CO₃ is soluble.
  • NH₄Cl: all salts of ammonium are soluble so NH₄Cl is soluble.

<em>Which of the following best describes the solute in an aqueous solution of sucrose or C₁₂H₂₂O₁₁(aq)?</em>

Sucrose is a molecular compound in which atoms are linked through covalent bonds. Thus, it does not ionize in water (is a non-electrolyte) and when it dissolves it exists as C₁₂H₂₂O₁₁ molecules.

400 liters of a certain gas is collected at STP. What will the volume be at 273 C and 190 torr pressure?
Firlakuza [10]

Answer:

2.00 L of a gas is collected at 25.0°C and 745.0 mmHg. What is the volume at STP? STP is a common abbreviation for "standard temperature and pressure." You have to recognize that five values are given in the problem and the sixth is an x. Also ... 273 1. A gas has a volume of 800.0 mL at minus 23.00 °C and 300.0 torr.

What is the mole ratio of NH3 to N2?
Ksenya-84 [330]
To answer this question a balanced chemical equation is necessary. The correct equation is: N2 + 3H2 = 2NH3
From this equation, one mole of nitrogen react with 3 moles of hydrogen to give 2 moles of ammonia.
Therefore, the mole ratio of NH3 to N2 is 2:1
