Solid state characterized by metallic bonding

43
Q

Some properties of non metals

A

Outer shells contain four or more electrons
Form anions by gaining electrons
Form ionic comp with metals and covalent comp with other non metals

49
Q

How to find # of Moles

A

Avogadros#.- from atoms to moles is one step
-from grams to moles. Is one step
- from atoms to grams. Are two steps
Atoms x Moles x grams. Or grams x Moles x atoms
1 mole of an element / 6.022 x 10 to23. — grams(atw)of an element/1mole
Ex. Mg atom to gram–
1 Mg atom X 1 mol Mg atom X 24.30g Mg
—————— ———– =4.04x10to23gMg
6.022x10to23Mg atoms. 1mol Mg atoms
