What is the difference between metallic and non metallic oxides?
Metallic oxides+ H2O - Base Non-metallic oxides+ H2O - Acid
What is the difference between purple and METALLIC blue?
purple is warmer
What is the difference between ionic crystals and metallic bonding?
Ions of opposite charges are involved in ionic bonding where the metal atoms form metallic bonds.
What the difference between a good conductor and a bad conductor?
A good conductor will conduct more heat, or more electricity, depending on the context, than a bad conductor. That is, it will transfer more of either in any given time period.
What is the difference between electrolytic reduction and electrolytic refining under these heads a. electrodes b. electrolytes c. reaction at positive and negative electrodes?
The difference between electrolytic refining and electrolytic reduction is as follows: a. In electrolytic reduction graphite electrodes are used which are of same size. in electrolytic refining the anode is made of the impure metal which is to be purified and the cathode is made from that pure metal. initially the cathode is thick and the anode is very thin. b. the electrolyte used in electrolytic refining is the metal sulphate with acid (acid id added to increase the conductivity) which is aqueous in nature. whereas in electrolytic reduction molten chloride form of the solution is used. c. The impure metal at the anode displaces the metal from the aqueous solution and the these ions go to the cathode and attach to the cathode as they are now pure. basically the impure metal at the anode directly doesn't go to the cathode, its a indirect process. as the reaction goes on, the size of the anode reduces and finally disappears and the cathode becomes thick as all the impure metal is converted into pure metal. this happens in electrolytic refining. whereas in electrolytic reduction the metal from the molten solution deposits on the cathode and chlorine gas is evolved at the anode. general differences: a. in electrolytic reduction no anode mud is formed and in electrolytic refining anode mud is formed from the impurities oh the impure metal. b. electrolytic reduction is done to extract metals of high reactivity from their ores. electrlolytic refining is done to purify (refine) metals from their impure form.
What is difference between electrolytic capacitor and electrostatic capacitor?
actually the truth is the difference between the electrostatic capcitor and electrolytic capacitor is the spelling.. believe it... or not!
What is the difference between capacitor and conductor?
A conductor is a material that possesses free charge carriers capable of transferring an electrical charge. A capacitor is a discrete device in which two conducting plates sandwich an electrolytic wafer. The purpose of a capacitor is to store a charge for a finite amount of time.
Define the 'potential difference between the ends of a conductor'?
The potential difference between the ends of a conductor is called voltage.
What is the difference between metallic and non metallic oxides?
Metallic oxides+ H2O - Base Non-metallic oxides+ H2O - Acid
Difference between metallic and electrolytic conduction?
Metallic conductance involves the movement of electrons throughout a metal. There are many metal atoms in a sheet of metal such as copper. The outer electrons of these atoms become delocalized (not fixed in one place). They are therefore able to move about the metallic sheet and so conduct electricity. Electrolytic conduction involves the movement of ions (charged species formed when an atom loses or gains electrons) throughout a pure liquid (for example molten NaCl) or solution such as NaCl and water. Main difference - one invloves the movement of electrons and the other involves the movement of ions.
What is the difference between electrolytic capacitors and normal capacitors?
because normal capacitors does not have any polaririties.
What is the difference between a insualator and a conductor?
Conductor will carry current/insulator won't.
What is the difference between a conductor an a composer?
A conductor plays the music but the composer decides what do do
Difference between metal oxide and metallic oxide?
metal and metallic are the same thing arent they??
What is the difference between conductor and insulater?
A conductor can conduct heat and electricity, but an insulator can't.
What is the difference between purple and METALLIC blue?
purple is warmer
The difference between a good conductor and a good insulator?
A good insulator means a bad conductor. It is the opposite of good conductor.
