The following list of properties is most descriptive of a(n) . Low melting point, non-conductor of electric current. Group of answer choices

This question is incomplete

Explanation:

This question is incomplete but the completed question is below;

"The following list of properties is most descriptive of a(n)

1. High melting point, conductor of electricity when dissolved in water

2. Low melting point, non-conductor of electric current

3. Malleable, ductile, insoluble in water.

The choices for all 3 are: a) metallic solid b) molecular solid c) ionic solid d) all of these e) none of these f) more than one of these"

1. Ionic solid: Ionic solids are solids that have ionic/electrovalent bonds holding it's constituent molecules together. These bonds are strong bonds that involve the transfer of electrons from one constituent atom (the metal) to another constituent atom (the nonmetal). This strong bond causes the solid to have a high melting and boiling point. Also, when dissolved in water, the constituent atoms (involved in the electron transfer) dissociate to form ions (become charged) and thus easily carry electric charges (i.e conduct electricity).

Examples are Sodium Chloride and Potassium Iodide

2. Molecular solids: These are solids whose constituent molecules are held together by a weak bond/force known as Van der Waal forces. This forces are easily broken down when subjected to heat and thus the molecular solids have a low melting point. Also, these solids do not have carriers of heat or electric charges in them and are thus non-conductors of electric current.

Examples are Ice (frozen water) and sucrose

3. Metallic solids: These of solids made from constituent metal atoms only. The nuclei of these constituent metal atoms have the ability to move past one another without disrupting there metallic bonding; it is for this reason they are malleable and ductile. There constituent atoms however do not dissociate in water and are thus insoluble in water.

Examples are aluminium and copper crystal.

"standard molar enthalpy:

h2o ( liquid water ) : - 285.8 kj/mole

h2o ( water vapor ) : - 241.8 kj / mole.

δhrxn = - 241. 8 - ( - 285.8 )= -241.8 + 285.8 = 44.0

answer: 44.0 kj"

the major pests we deal with are insects, weeds and fungal diseases. a pesticide is a product, whether organic or chemical, used to kill the target pest. there are other techniques gardeners should use that can prevent the severe infestations that make the use of pesticides necessary
