Question

Answer choices are directly under each question. Just List out your solution.

a)  The maximum degree of crystallinity in a typical polymer is:

                   0%              60%            100%


          b)  Which typically negatively influences thermal conductivity in                    metals to a greater extent:

                   Impurities             Temperature                  Both about equal

          c)  a pentagon has how many mirror planes of symmetry

                   one                       five                       none

          d)  A triangular object which is white on one side and black on the

     other (top and bottom faces) has which rotational axes:

                   two-fold               three-fold              both

          e)  A carbon-carbon double bond can rotate

                   easily          with great difficulty       varies with the molecule

          f)  Chlorine has how many valence electrons

                     5                         7                           8

          g)  Why are transition metal ions typically colored:

                   close spacing of valence orbitals    

                   high energy state of valance orbitals

                   mother nature likes pretty colors

          h)  In going from gas to solid to the entropy of a material

                   increases     decreases    is about the same

i)  A cube has how many centers of symmetry inversion:

                   none                     one                       an infinite number

          j)  A hexagon has how many two-fold axes of rotational symmetry:

                   one                       four                      six

          k)  A carbon-carbon double bond is approximately how much stronger

               than a carbon-carbon single bond:

                   not stronger/the same    2 times        1.5 times

          l)  Sr (Sr) has how many valence electrons

                     2                         8                           29
