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>

mina [271]

Answer:

Rydberg constant 3.3 x 10¹⁵ Hertz is equal to 1.090 x 10⁷ m⁻¹

Explanation:

Given;

Rydberg constant as  3.3 x 10¹⁵ Hz

1 Rydberg constant = 3.3 x 10¹⁵ Hz

1 Rydberg constant  = 1.090 x 10⁷ m⁻¹

Therefore, Rydberg constant 3.3 x 10¹⁵ Hertz is equal to 1.090 x 10⁷ m⁻¹

Why is radioactive dating important when approximating the age of earth?
Furkat [3]

Answer:

So, we rely on radiometric dating to calculate their ages. Radiometric dating, or radioactive dating as it is sometimes called, is a method used to date rocks and other objects based on the known decay rate of radioactive isotopes.

Explanation:

radiometric dating is a very accurate way to date the Earth.We know it is accurate because radiometric dating is based on the radioactive decay of unstable isotopes. When an unstable Uranium (U) isotope decays, it turns into an isotope of the element Lead (Pb).

As Jesse's hybrid accelerates to pass a car on the highway, he notices that his gas mileage drops from 40 miles per gallon to 15
e-lub [12.9K]
The most likely explanation for this observation is C. his car has turned on more pistons to provide the extra energy needed to accelerate.

When cruising, hybrid cars are able to employ electrical energy to drive the car. Moreover, even if a vehicle is not a hybrid, a greater amount of fuel is consumed when one accelerates because the vehicle has to generate a force larger than the force of air resistance in order for it to accelerate. This increased demand of force reduces the vehicle's fuel economy.

In which of the following aqueous solutions would you expect AgI to have the highest solubility? In which of the following aqueo
telo118 [61]

Answer:

Solubility indicates the maximum amount of a substance that can be dissolved in a solvent at a given temperature. Such a solution is called saturated,it is calculated by dividing the mass of the compound by mass of the solvent then multiply by the molar concentration.

molar mass of solvent (Agl)= 107.8682 + 126.90447 = 234.77267g/mol

For 0.038M of Nal

molar mass of Nal compound= 22.99 + 126.90447 = 149.89447g/mol

solubility = [ 149.89447 / 234.77267] * 0.038 = 0.024

For 0.05M of AgNO3

molar mass of AgNO3 compound = 107.8682 + 14.01 + 3(16) = 169.8782g/mol

solubility = [169.8782 / 234.77267] * 0.05 = 0.036

For 0.025M of KI

molar mass of KI compound = 39.0983 + 253.8089 = 292.9072g/mol

solublity = [292.9072 / 234.77267] * 0.025 = 0.031

For 0.0125M of Lil

molar mass of Lil compound = 6.941 + 253.8089 = 260.7499g/mol

solubility = [260.7499 / 234.77267] * 0.0125 = 0.014

Therefore the solution with the highest solubility is 0.05M of AgNO3
