Classify the following metals by increasing order of melting temperature
a) Na Li K
Classify the following metals by increasing order of melting temperature
b) Al Mg Na

Respuesta :

Explanation:

a. K Na Li

melting point decreases a

down the group since more shells are added down the group hence the the attractive force that the protons exert on the electrons decreases down the group and hence melting point also decreases down the group.

i.e Li,Na,K decreasing order.

And hence the increasing order will be:

K Na Li.

b. Na Mg Al

Effective nuclear charge increases across the period and hence melting point increases across the period since Al Mg and Na are in the same period hence the increasing order will be Na Mg Al.

Answer:

a. K,Na,Li

b. Na,Mg,Al

Explanation:

the first one Lithium because it has small atomic size hence their is greater attraction for the electrons in the energy level ,hence the heat required to break the bond is a lot hence high melting point

the second one Aluminium has a higher mpt than Mg and Na this is because as u go along the period the nuclear charge increases hence exerts higher attraction towards the electrons in the energy levels hence the bond formed is strong hence will require more heat to break.
