Why can metallic elements bend, while solid but non-metallic break or crumble?

Metallic elements are flexible because of its experience for the atoms to roll on top of one added without crushing its metallic bond (This is because it is fascinated with united force, and is the cause why they have higher melting/boiling points); however, a nonmetals form atomic bonds which don't have this property.

Metallic elements can bend because they have the property of being ductile. This means that a solid material stretches under tensile stress. If a material is ductile then it may be stretched into a wire. Further, the material can also be malleable.

15. An apparatus consists of a 4.0 dm3
Solnce55 [7]

Answer:

i· Partial pressure of nitrogen gas is 219.429kPa and partial pressure of argon gas is 33.714kPa ·

ii· Total pressure of the gas mixture is 253.143kPa·

Explanation:

<h3>solution for i :</h3>

Assuming that the given gases to be ideal,

so by ideal gas equation

PV=nRT

where,

P is the pressure of the gas

V is the volume occupied by the gas

n is the number of moles of the gas

R is the ideal gas constant

T is the temperature of the gas

Actually partial pressure of each gas is the pressure of the gas exerted when it occupies complete volume

As the temperature of both gases are same, the mixing process  is an isothermal process

PV=constant

Initially for nitrogen gas PV=803×4=3212

let Px_{1} be the partial pressure of the nitrogen gas

(Px_{1})×14=3212

∴Px_{1}=219.429kPa

∴Partial pressure of nitrogen gas is 219.429kPa

Initially for argon gas PV=47.2×10=472

let Px_{2} be the partial pressure of the argon gas

(Px_{2})×14=472

∴Px_{2}=33.714kPa

∴Partial pressure of argon gas is 33.714kPa

solution for ii :

Total pressure of the gas mixture will be the sum of the partial pressures of each gas as

Partial pressure of the gas=(total pressure of the mixture)×(mole fraction of the gas)

∴Total pressure=Px_{1}+Px_{2}

                          =219.429+33.719

Total pressure    =253.143kPa

How many grams are in 3.3 moles of potassium sulfide , k2s
Sever21 [200]
<span>In 3.3 moles of potassium sulphide (K2S), there are 363.99 g. Let's first calculate the molar mass of K2S (Mr) which is the sum of atomic masses (Ar) of its elements. According to the periodic table, Ar(K) = 39.1 g/mol and Ar(S) = 32.1 g/mol. Mr(K2S) = 2Ar(K) + Ar(S) = 2 * 39.1 + 32.1 = 110.3 g/mol. Thus, there are 110.3 g per 1 mol. There will be x grams in 3.3 moles. 110.3 g : 1 mol = x : 3.3 mol. x = 110.3 g * 3.3 mol : 1 mol = 363.99 g.</span>
