Is hydrogen metallic or non metallic'?
Under standard conditions, hydrogen is a non-metal (H2 gas,) but chemically, it can actually behave like a metal. Often, it bonds with other non-metals in the same proportion as other group 1 elements, all of which (except hydrogen) are alkali metals. It can also bond with metals as a hydride, where it acts more like a non-metal. Acids can lose a hydrogen ion, which has a charge of +1, just like many metals. Finally, under extreme pressure, hydrogen can actually become a metallic liquid; it is theorized that Jupiter's core is composed of liquid metallic hydrogen.
Is ice metallic or nonmetallic?
Ice is nonmetallic. It is a solid form of water, which is composed of covalent bonds between hydrogen and oxygen atoms. Metals, on the other hand, typically have metallic bonds that allow them to conduct electricity and heat.
Is hydrogen metals and nonmetals?
Hydrogen, symbol H, atomic number 1, is a non metal.
Does a metallic element form an acid or base when it reacts with water?
Usually a metallic element will not react with water and so will not change pH. However, a highly reactive metal, such as sodium, potassium or calcium will react with water to form the corresponding metal hydroxide, and so forms a base.
What Non metal element in the compound ammonium nitride?
2 non metallic elements = Nitrogen and Hydrogen
Why is granulated zinc is preferred to metallic zinc in the preparation of hydrogen using dilute acid?
Granulated zinc has more surface area exposed to the acid, so the reaction can occur more rapidly.
Why granulated zinc is used in the preparation of hydrogen rather than metallic zinc?
Don't know, because granulated zinc IS metallic itself: solid, elemental Zn.
Is metallic hydrogen the same as hydrogen?
Metallic hydrogen is a physical state that hydrogen enters under extreme pressure.
What is the texture of lead?
The texture is something like granulated sugar
Why is hydrogen placed with nonmetals?
Hydrogen hasn't metallic properties.
Which jovian planets contain metallic hydrogen?
It is believed that both Jupiter and Saturn contain metallic hydrogen in their interiors due to the extreme pressure and temperature conditions. Uranus and Neptune are not thought to have metallic hydrogen in their interiors.
Does hydrogen have Lustre?
Hydrogen itself does not have lustre as it is a colorless, odorless, and tasteless gas at room temperature. However, in its solid form as metallic hydrogen, it may have a metallic lustre.
Why hydrogen is classified as a non metallic element?
Hydrogen can act similarly to a metal chemically and at very intense pressures it is theorized to be metallic.
Is MgH2 a metallic hydride?
Yes, MgH2 is a metallic hydride because it is a compound formed between a metal (Mg) and hydrogen (H). Metallic hydrides have characteristics such as high hydrogen storage capacity and can release hydrogen gas under certain conditions.
Does earth have liquid metallic hydrogen?
No. Liquid metallic hydrogen only forms when hydrogen is subjected to extreme pressure. Hydrogen is present in trace amounts in Earth's atmosphere in gas form, under low pressure. The core is composed primarily of iron. Liquid metallic hydrogen likely exists in the gas giants Jupiter and Saturn.
Can you make the hydrogen a metal?
Yes. Although hydrogen is a non-metal, there is metallic hydrogen. It is formed when hydrogen is sufficiently compressed and undergoes a phase change; it is an example of degenerate matter. Solid metallic hydrogen consists of a crystal lattice of protons with a spacing which is significantly smaller than a Bohr radius. Indeed, the spacing is more comparable with an electron wavelength. The electrons are unbound and behave like the conduction electrons in a metal. As is the dihydrogen molecule H2, metallic hydrogen is an allotrope. In liquid metallic hydrogen, protons do not have lattice ordering.
What is the most chemically reactive metallic element?
Hydrogen
