Which of the following is not a characteristic of a metal?

Chemistry
1 answer:
jolli1 [7]2 years ago
3 0

Answer:

B. Poor conductor.

Explanation:

It cannot be A, as only 1 metal is not solid at room temp.

It cannot be C, as most metals are ductile.

It cannot be D, as most metals are malleable.

This leaves B, which is not true about metals, as a lot are very good conductors.

How can an abiotic factor affect a biotic factor
xenn [34]
Biotic and abiotic factors are the environmental conditions that the organisms have to face to live in a specified environment.

-Abiotic factors-
Abiotic factors are the physical and chemical conditions of an environment. For example : heat, salinity, pressure, light, wind, pH ...

-Biotic factors-
Biotic factors are all the biological conditions of an environment for a specie/taxa. It can include prey and predator abundance, available food amount, available space, intra and interspecific competition...

The development of organims is under the control of abiotic factors. Some are adapted to heat, cold etc ... The abiotic factors will define which organisms are able or not to live in a specified place.

The living organisms will constitute the biotic factors, which define if and how can an organism live in a specified environment.
So, the abiotic factors are controling the biotic factors of an environment.

Hope it helps you !

Which of the following is a galvanic cell?
sladkih [1.3K]

C. Aluminum (Al) oxidized, zinc (Zn) reduced

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

Metals that undergo oxidation and reduction

Required

A galvanic cell

Solution

The condition for voltaic cells is that they can react spontaneously, indicated by a positive cell potential.

\large {\boxed {\bold {E ^ ocell = E ^ ocatode -E ^ oanode}}}

or:  

E ° cell = E ° reduction-E ° oxidation  

For the reaction to occur spontaneously (so that it E cell is positive), the  E° anode must be less than the E°cathode

If we look at the voltaic series:

<em>Li-K-Ba-Ca-Na-Mg-Al-Mn- (H2O) -Zn-Cr-Fe-Cd-Co-Ni-Sn-Pb- (H) -Cu-Hg-Ag-Pt-Au </em>

The standard potential value(E°) from left to right in the voltaic series will be greater, so that the metal undergoing an oxidation reaction (acting as an anode) must be located to the left of the reduced metal (as a cathode)

<em />

From the available answer choices, oxidized Al (anode) and reduced Zn (cathode) are voltaic/galvanic cells.

The melting point of H₂O(s) is 0 °C. Would you expect the melting point of H₂S(s) to be 85 °C, 0 °C or -85 °C.? Justify your cho
dimulka [17.4K]

Answer:

-85 °C

Explanation:

O and S are in the same group( Group 16). Since S is below O it's atomic mass is higher than O. So molar mass of H2S is higher than H2O. The strength of Vanderwaal Interactions ( London dispersion forces) increases when the molar mass increases. However, only H2O can form H bonds with each other. This is because electronegativity of O is higher than S and therefore H in H2O has a higher partial positive charge than H of H2S.

H bond dominate among these 2 types of forces so the strength of attractions between molecules is higher in H2O than H2S. Therefore more energy should be supplied for H2O to break inter

molecular forces and convert from solid to liquid state than H2S. So mpt of H2O must be higher than that of H2S.
