Why do plastics have a lower melting point than metals explain in terms of chemical bonding?
Metals have metallic bonds which plastics lack.Plastics lack delocalised electrons that are found in metals.
Heat conduction is most efficient in?
Heat con conduction is efficient metals
Examples of homogeneous materials?
metals , plastics , glass and ceramic
What type of element has a high boiling point and is a good electrical conduction?
metals
What are the similarities and differences between metals and metalloids and non metals?
The electrons in a metal can leave the atom and move about in the metal as free electrons. While atoms in non-metals are bonded. Heat energy is passed along by vibartions as the bonds between the non-metals atoms are shaken. Conduction in metals is faster than in non-metals. Making metals good conductors and making non-metals poor conductors.
Why are radiators metal?
Metals are a better heat conductor than plastics.
What is the conduction of metal?
The conduction is transfer of heat between metals,also called metallic conduction
How does the electrical and heat conduction of metals and non metals compare?
Electrical and heat conduction is much greater in metals than in non metals.
How does conduction work in non metals?
im trying to do my science homework about conduction and i know how it works in metals but why and how does it not work in non-metals
What are motorcycles made of?
Plastics and metals
Why do plastics have a lower melting point than metals explain in terms of chemical bonding?
Metals have metallic bonds which plastics lack.Plastics lack delocalised electrons that are found in metals.
Heat conduction is most efficient in metals nonmetallic metals water or gases?
metals
Heat conduction is most efficient in?
Heat con conduction is efficient metals
How can conduction be helpful?
Conduction can cause a spark which can light a light bulb. Conduction can be used to heat up metals.
What are game systems made of?
metals and plastics
Is metals and iron and gold a conduction?
yes
What elements are nonconducting?
if you mean the conduction of electricity then.... all non-metals do not conduct(excluding carbon which does conduct) all metals conduct although some conduct better than others
