What do we call it when an atom gains electrons?electrificationionisationreductionoxidationQuestion 7 of 11 Loading... 8. Describe the structure of metalsA giant random structure of positive metal ions surrounded by a sea of delocalised electronsA simple regular structure of positive metal ions surrounded by a sea of delocalised electronsA giant regular structure of positive metal ions surrounded by a sea of delocalised electronsA simple random structure of positive metal ions surrounded by a sea of delocalised electronsQuestion 8 of 11 Loading... 9. Why do ionic compounds conduct electricity only when molten or in solution?When solid the electrons are held in place. When molten or in solution the electrons are free to moveWhen solid the ions are arranged regularly. When molten or in solution the ions are arranged irregularlyWhen solid the ions are free to move. When molten or in solution the ions are held in placeWhen solid the ions are held in place. When molten or in solution the ions are free to moveQuestion 9 of 11 Loading... 10. Do ionic substances conduct electricity?Only when moltenYes, ionic substances always conduct electricityNot when solid, but they do when either molten or in solutionNo, ionic substances never conduct electricityQuestion 10 of 11 Loading... 11. Why do covalent compounds (e.g H₂O) not conduct electricity?There is a sea of delocalised electrons that are free to moveThere are charged particles that are free to moveThere are no charged particles that are free to moveThere are weak intermolecular forces that require little energy to breakQuestion 11 of 11 Loading...
