On the basis of chemical structure, which solid will most easily conduct electricity?

fe

mgf2

fecl3

feo2

Fe

Explanation:

The electrical conductivity depends mainly on the type of chemical bonds between the atoms of a compound.

In the case of MgF2, FeCl3 and FeO3, these have the type of ionic bond. This means that in the atoms of the compound there is an electron transfer, to keep eight electrons in the outermost layer and thus resemble the electronic configuration of the inert gas closest to each of the two elements, due to this ions of opposite charges are formed that are held together by electrostatic forces. These types of compounds are good conductors of electricity, however, to have this property, they must be dissolved in water or molten.

In the case of Fe, however, the type of union between atoms is metallic. In this type of junction, valence electrons are quite free inside the metal, which makes it easy for them to move. For this reason, this compound will conduct electricity in a solid state.

the answer is:  

line graphs show patterns in data with variables that change over time; whereas, circle graphs show data as parts out of a whole (such as out of 100%).

most historians agree that gabriel mouton, the vicar of st. paul’s church in lyons, france, is the “founding father” of the metric system. he proposed a decimal system of measurement in 1670. mouton based it on the length of one minute of arc of a great circle of the earth (now called a nautical mile, 1852 meters). he also proposed the swing-length of a pendulum with a frequency of one beat per second as the unit of length (about 25 cm). a pendulum beating with this length would have been fairly easy to produce, thus facilitating the widespread distribution of uniform standards. over the years, his work was revised, improved, and extended by a number of french scientists.

the political sponsor of weights and measures reform in the french revolutionary national assembly was the bishop of autun, better known as talleyrand. under his auspices, the french academy appointed several committees to carry out the work of developing a usable system of weights and measures for france. one of the committees recommended a decimalized measurement system based upon a length equal to one ten-millionth of the length of a quadrant of the earth’s meridian (i.e., one ten-millionth of the distance between the equator and the north pole).
