Why are metallic crystals malleable and ductile? A. The electrons are free floating, allowing them to move with the atoms when t

he metal is struck and the crystal lattice shifts. B. The free floating electrons conduct energy easily, and disperse the energy of being hit by a hammer or other tool, allowing them to be molded and not break. C. The crystal lattice is made of very strong ionic bonds that take a lot of energy to break. D. The atoms are arranged with alternating positive and negative charges. When struck, the lattice shifts putting positives against positives and negatives against negatives.

Answer:

D. The atoms are arranged with alternating positive and negative charges. When struck, the lattice shifts putting positives against positives and negatives against negatives.

Explanation:

Metallic crystals takes their properties as a result of metallic bonds in between the atoms.

Metallic bond is actually the attraction between the positive nuclei of all the closely packed atoms in the lattice and the electron cloud jointly formed by all the atoms by losing their outermost shell electrons this is by virtue of their low ionization energy.

Physical properties of metals such as malleability, ductility, electrical conductivity, etc can be accounted for by metallic bonds.

How many moles of KCl will be<br> produced from 15.0 g of KClO3?
slega [8]

Answer:

0.12 mol KCl

Explanation:

2 KClO3 (s)   2 KCl (s) + 3 O2 (g)

15 g                x mol

x g KCl = 15 g KClO3 x[ (1 mol KClO3)/ (122.5 g KClO3) ] x [(2 mol KCl)/ (2 mol KClO3)]

x g KCl = 0.12 mol KCl

How would each of the following procedural errors affect the results to be expected in this experiment? Give your reasoning in e
Digiron [165]

Answer:

a) if the liquid is not vaporized completely, then the condensed vapor in the flask contains the air which is initially occupied before the liquid is heated. When calculating the molar mass of the vapor the moles of air which are initially present are not excluded, so that the molar mass of the vapor would be an increase in value.

b) While weighing the condensed vapor, the flask should be dried. If the weighing flask is not dried then the water which is layered on the surface of the flask is also added to the mass of the vapor. Therefore, the mass of the vapor that is calculated would be increase.

c) When condensing the vapor, the stopper should not be removed from the flask, because the vapor will escape from the flask and a small amount of vapor will condense in the flask. Therefore, the mass of the condensed vapor would be In small value.

d) If all the liquid is vaporized, when the flask is removed before the vapor had reached the temperature of boiling water, then the boiling

temperature of that liquid would be lower than that of the boiling temperature of the water.Therefore, the liquid may have more volatility.

Imagine that a new polyatomic anion called "platoate" is invented. What would an acid of "platoate" be named?
o-na [289]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

                   Platoic Acid

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

                        While naming Carboxylic Acids we know that when the Carboxylic Acid looses proton it is converted into corresponding conjugate base called as Carboxylate.

Examples:

                        HCOOH           →           HCOO⁻  +  H⁺

                     Formic acid                     Formate Ion

                    H₃CCOOH           →           H₃CCOO⁻  +  H⁺

                     Acetic acid                       Acetate Ion

                    H₅C₂COOH           →           H₅C₂COO⁻  +  H⁺

                 Propanoic acid                       Propanoate Ion

Therefore, if the conjugate base is Platoate then the corresponding acid will be Platoic Acid means we will replace the -ate by -ic acid <em>i.e.</em>

                   RCOO⁻  +  H⁺        →            RCOOH

                   Platoate Ion                         Platoic Acid

Over-the-counter hydrogen peroxide solutions are 3% (w/v). What is this concentration in moles per liter?
Marina CMI [18]
<span>1 ml of water weighs 1 gram so 1 liter (1000 ml) weighs 1000 grams. A 3% solution (3% = 0.03) of hydrogen peroxide (w/v) would contain 1000 grams x 0.03 or 30 grams. The chemical formula of hydrogen peroxide is H2O2 and a mole weighs 34.0147 grams/mole. So 30 grams of H2O2 divided by 34.0147 grams/mole equals 0.88 moles of H2O2. The concentration of a 3% (w/v) hydrogen peroxide solution therefore contains 30 grams of H202 (or 0.88 moles of H202) per in a liter of water (or 1000 grams H20) would thus be 0.88 moles H2O2 per liter (0.88 moles H2O2/l) .</span>
