Why does silver conduct electricity?
Because it's a metal. No, seriously, that's why. Metal atoms share electrons in what's called the "metallic bond"... electrons are not strongly associated with one or even a few atoms, but can fairly freely move throughout the entire bulk of the metal. These "conduction band" electrons make it easy to put electrons in at one end and get (different) electrons out the other end of a piece of metal.
What happens to from ions and what attracts the ions to from an ionic bond'?
Electrons are transferred from the metal to the non-metal (the metal is said to be oxidised and the non-metal reduced). The force of attraction that holds the iosn together is electrostatic attraction the same force that makes your stand up one end when you comb it! In electrostatic attraction unlike charges attract (positive attracts negative) and the like charges repel.
What are the methods of preparation of Thermoplastics and Thermoset plastics?
Thermoplastic operations involve blowing a heated plastic into a mold. The end product is hollow. Thermoset plastics are sheets of plastic heated and place over two parts of a mold that come together. The end result is not hollow.
Does copper 2 sulphate decompose when heated?
CuO is formed as the end product along with the liberation of SO2.
What happens to the name of a non metal in an ionic bond?
The name of the nonmetal in a binary compound with ionic bonds is modified to end in -ide. In ionic compounds with more than one nonmetal, including oxygen, other modifications of the name are used.
What happens if a metal rod is heated at one end?
The drawing pin which is the closest to the heat/bunsen burner will fall off first because of the heat partials travel through the metal rod and through each piece of wax causing the wax to melt.
When a metal rod is heated at one end which end is hotter?
The end that is being heated should be hotter than the other end.
What happens to the particles in a metal when the metal is heated?
When a metal bar is heated....the particles in the area of the metal bar that is hot start vibrating.. knocking into each other and passing the heat energy on to cooler particles. The cooler end that isn't heated still has a rise in temperature just not as much as the heated area because the heat has almost been diluted.
What happens when one end of a metal slab is heated and ice is placed on the other end?
Heat will be transferred through the metal and begin melting the ice at the other end. Metal is a very good conductor of heat and heat like most other things prefers to equalize itself if possible.
When a metal rod is heated at one end what energy transfer takes place in the rod?
conduction
How do I find a diagram or directions to replace a metal piece that broke off of the clutch and fell on the floor inside a 96 Nissan 200SX?
Metal piece was from the end of the clutch cable.
How did ranchers know their cattle?
they branded their cattle (they heated a metal rod with a specific symbol at the end and burned it into their skin).
Can you generate electricity from hot metal body?
If two metals are joined to form a thermocouple, then when their junction is heated, electrons will flow away from the junction - a tiny electrical flow. When a metal is heated, electrons will flow away from the hot end of the metal. Once again a tiny amount.
What happens if you hold a piece of string at both end and twist it?
You cannot twist it so nothing happens.
Name of the small metal piece in the shoe lace?
The aglet is the piece at the end of the shoelace that keeps it from unravelling and makes it easier to lace. The metal rings that the lace goes through are grommets.
How does heat travel along a metal?
By conduction. This means that atoms of the metal become more energetic when heated, and they transfer this energy from atom to atom, so it travels along the bar from the hot end to the cooler end
Why only one end of metal rod cannot be charged?
Metal is a good conductor. Any charge will quickly be distributed over the entire metal piece.
