Native elements have very high densities primarily due to their atomic structure and bonding characteristics. These elements, which include metals like gold, platinum, and lead, have closely packed atomic arrangements and strong metallic bonds that allow for a greater mass per unit volume. Additionally, the presence of heavy atoms with high atomic weights contributes to their overall density. As a result, native elements tend to exhibit significant compactness and stability, leading to their high density.

What happens to elements at very high temp?

They get hot. If "very high" is high enough then they start existing as a fourth state of matter called "plasma". If "very high" is even higher than that they could break down into a quark-gluon plasma.


What are examples of high reactivity?

Very reactive elements are alkali metals and halogens.


What is the similarity between plasma and Bose-einstein condensates?

Plasma is heated to a very high temperature. Bose Einstein Condensates cool to very low densities."BOTH ARE/HAVE TOO EXTREME TEMPERATURES."

Why do minerals that have the nonsilicate crystalline structure called closest packing have high density?

Minerals of a nonsilicate crystal have very high densities because their crystal structures are based on the packing of atoms that are as close together as possible. This structure is called this closest packing.


Given that a large number of non-metalsare gases what does it tell you about the densities of non-metals in general?

In strict logical inference, nothing, because there could be very dense nonmetals to compensate for the gases. However, in fact the densities of nonmetals on average are less than the densities of metals.


What is very high incongruity?

Very high incongruity refers to a situation where there is a significant mismatch or inconsistency between different elements or concepts. This can lead to confusion, surprise, or humor due to the unexpected nature of the mismatch.
