Cadmium is an element, represented by the symbol Cd on the periodic table. It is a metal that is typically found in nature as a component of mineral ores.


What is CdI2 name?

cadmium diiodide or cadmium (II) iodide --------- Right Answer: Cadmium iodide


What is the name of the compound of iodine and cadmium?

i think its cadmium iodide, in that cadmium is a cation(Cd 2+), and therefore comes first in your compound name (you keep the name of the cation). Next, Iodine is a monoatomic anion(I-), so we keep the "ide" suffix at the end of the anion name. We therefore have "Cadmium iodide." I'm pretty certain this is correct, but compare with other results. Hope it helped. I love/hate chemistry.


Does cadmium conduct electricity heat and sounds?

Cadmium has Thermal conductivity: 96.6 W m-1 K-1 (it conducts heat), and Electrical conductivity: 14.7 x 106 S m-1 (it conducts electricity). All solids will conduct sound but in many, the sound will dampen quickly. Since the melting point of Cadmium is 320.9 ºC, it is normally a solid. It will conduct sound for short distances, but the sound would dampen if passed through a thicker plate of cadmium (although a thick plate of solid cadmium would be prohibitively expensive to produce). A wire of cadmium would probably transmit sound at least as well as regular string pulled tight between two cans in a "tin can telephone".

How many oxygen ions are there per unit cell in solid cadmium oxide?

In solid cadmium oxide (CdO), each cadmium ion (Cd) has a +2 charge and each oxide ion (O) has a -2 charge. This means that there is 1 oxygen ion per unit cell to balance the 2 cadmium ions, resulting in a total of 3 ions per unit cell in solid cadmium oxide.
