Does Na2 gas posses metallic character? Explain your answer..​

Chemistry
1 answer:
Ratling [72]2 years ago
4 0

Explanation:

<h3>It contains Na2 molecules and the atoms in this molecule are held together by a purely covalent bond because the electronegativity of the two atoms is identical.</h3><h3 /><h3>Metallic bonding would not kick in until you make clusters of quite a few atoms. Such clusters would likely not be very stable because thermodynamically the larger the clump of material the more stable it gets. So they tend to coalesce until you have chunk of metal.</h3><h3 /><h3>Metallic bonding is in a sense a form of covalent bonding, but it is very collective (delocalized over a great many atoms) and electron deficient (there are more states than electrons to fill them up with, leading to conductive properties. This means that “a metallic bond” is a bit of an oxymoron like a forest with only one tree.</h3>

a) The least number of decimal points is 0 so you should round the answer to 43.

b) The least number of significant figures is 2 so round to 7.3

c)The least number of decimal places is 1 so round to 225.7

d) The least number of significant figures is 3 so round to 92.0

e) The least number of significant figures is 3 so round to 32.4

f) The least number of decimal places is 0 so round to 104m^3

Basically, for addition and subtraction round to the least number of decimal places found in the factors, and for multiplication and division round to the least number of significant figures found in the factors.

The metallic radius of a potassium atom is 231 pm. What is the volume of a potassium atom in cubic meters?
Sauron [17]
1 pm = 10∧-10 cm
Therefore, 230 pm is equivalent to 2.3 ×10∧-8 cm.
Atom is in the shape of a sphere,
The volume of a sphere is given by 4/3πr³
Thus, volume of the atom = 4/3π( 2.3 ×10∧-8)³
                                          = 4/3 (3.142 ×12.167×10∧-24
                                           = 5.096 ×10∧-23 cm³
but 1m³= 1000000cm³
Therefore, the volume of the atom = 5.096 ×10∧-29 m³

What is the net ionic equation for 2Sb(OH)3 (s) + 3Na2S (aq) = Sb2S3 + 6NaOH
tatuchka [14]

Answer:

2Sb^(+3) (aq) + 3S^(-2) (aq) = Sb_2•S_3

Explanation:

First of all, let us balance the equation to give;

2Sb(OH)3 (s) + 3Na2S (aq) = Sb2S3 + 3NaOH

Now, we can observe the presence of positive Sodium ions (Na+) and negative hydroxyl ions (OH-) on both left and right sides of the equation.

Now, the two ions will cancel out. These ions are not really involved in the overall reaction and thus do not require being written in the overall equation. Hence, the overall net ionic reaction can now be written as:

2Sb^(+3) (aq) + 3S^(-2) (aq) = Sb_2•S_3
