MCQ
The enhanced force of cohesion in metals is due to
- AThe covalent linkages between atoms
- BThe electrovalent linkages between atoms
- CThe lack of exchange of valency electrons
- ✓The exchange energy of mobile electrons
✓
Answer
Correct option: D.
The exchange energy of mobile electrons
d
Cohesive forces are attractive forces between similar molecules. Ex.,between water-water molecules.
Cohesive forces are attractive forces between similar molecules. Ex.,between water-water molecules.
The enhanced Cohesion force is due to the EXCHANGE OF ENERGY IN MOBILE ELECTRONS.
