These melting and boiling points are very high which is caused by strong attractive forces. Metallic bonding is the strong attraction between closely packed positive metal ions and a 'sea' of delocalized electrons. Iron as a pure element on the periodic table is also a good conductor, which relates back to the features of metallic bonding. Because the electrons involved in the bond of iron are free-moving, iron is a good conductor. Network covalent bonds generally have very high melting points, and substance A can be classified as a covalent network crystal since it has a melting point of 3974oC. Covalent networks are insoluble in water – they cannot be broken apart by trying to dissolve them.
Stainless steel is an inoxydable which means it can’t be readily oxidized (incapable of rusting). Stainless steel is notable because of its good corrosion resistance. Increase in Chromium content increases the corrosion resistance in stainless steels. Stainless steels are differing from carbon steels because of chromium content present in it. When compared with stainless steel, carbon steels are readily rusted when reveal to the combination of moisture and air.
The interaction between the delocalized electrons and the positive ion create the force that binds and holds the metallic structure. The more electrons in the outer shell to become delocalized means the more positive ions there will be. The metallic bond and delocalized electrons within a metal are normally the cause of the properties the metal

2. Zinc Oxide Zinc oxide is a white colored inorganic compound which is insoluble in water but is highly soluble in acid or alkaline solutions. It does not occur naturally instead, it is created when zinc is chemically heated and combined with oxygen molecules. There are two possible structural forms of zinc oxide: hexagonal and cubic. Hexagonal crystals are commonly found in nature.
The staggered conformation in Newman projection has the lowest energy, which is the most steady arrangement. This is because all the C-H bonds are further away from another as possible due to the repulsion of electron clouds in the chemical bonds. So, the eclipsed conformation has the highest energy, means that it is the least steady arrangement as all the C-H bonds are arranged as near as possible. Figure 2: Staggered and eclipsed conformations of ethane The eclipsed conformer has higher energy compared to staggered conformations.
The second reason is that the nonmetals have smaller atomic sizes making it easy to attract electrons but difficult to pull them away. 12. A lot of energy is required to break a strong intermolecular bond. This is because atoms in certain compounds have very strong bonds that require energy to break.
“Consider how easy it is to squeeze an empty soda can compared to how easy it is to crush a thin aluminum tube. If you cut the soda can open and curl the aluminum sheet into a smaller diameter it gets much harder to dent or deform. This has to do with leverage. If you take a wire or bar of metal it is much easier to bend, requires less force, if your hands are widely separated because you have more leverage. If the thickness of metal wall stays the same then larger cans are easier to crush.
This can be noted and from the previous table. So, according to the Oddon-Harkins rule, the element with an even atomic number is more abundant than the next element with an odd atomic number. This rule also governs the distribution of all elements in the universe, but is much less pronounced than in the case of lanthanides. Additionally, early on, geochemists observed a pattern in the occurrence and crustal abundance of some lanthanides. Lanthanides with lower atomic numbers were noted to be more common ionic constituents in REE mineral ores and, in general, occurred in greater abundance than the lanthanide elements with higher atomic numbers.
However, if we contrast nuclear power with the use of fossil fuel for energy, nuclear power holds much greater superiority as much more energy is produced with the same amount of starting material. With this in mind, the harm done from mining would be minimal in terms of quantity compared to coal. At the same time, almost no carbon emission and carbon dioxide gas is produced from the use of nuclear energy, unlike the use of fossil fuel. In a way, nuclear energy is a step we have to head towards if we want to combat global warming (Lynas, 2012). The great benefits reaped from the use of nuclear power hence accentuate the need of it to continue
1.7E-10 Al Al 4.2E-14 Question # 2: Part B At around 900oC, why is there a jump in the diffusivity value of carbon in iron?
The type of board I will be using has a density of 100 kg/m but will retain the same thermal conductivity but using a different grade of polyurethane foam that has fire resistant properties. This type of insulation has a relatively high compressive and tensile strength but during its production it does give off quite large amounts of Co2 and does contain toxic materials that could prove to be harmful to the surrounding environment. Although more costly the insulation having a higher strength and fire resistance will ensure that less maintenance will have to occur and so could be less expensive long
Erick Ceballos 5th Block Rebecca Harding Davis Author Rebecca Harding Davis, who is considered one of the great American authors, wrote during the realist period. Particularly, in her work titled “Life in the iron mills” written in 1861 we can see evidence of the characteristics, themes and style identified with the realist movement which was extant in American letters between 1860 and 1890. As a representative of such a movement, Rebecca Harding Davis then remains one of the most identifiable and iconic writers of her time. Born June 24, 1831, to Rachel Leet Wilson and Richard W. Harding, Rebecca was the eldest of five children.
