The difference is EN of C, H and O aren’t great enough to have one atom give up its electrons, so a true ionic bond does not form. This makes all the bonds in C6H12O6 covalent bonds. What type of … Continue reading →

Lye” most commonly refers to sodium hydroxide ( ), but historically has been used for potassium hydroxide ( ). Today, lye is commercially manufactured using a membrane cell chloralkali process. It is supplied in various forms such as flakes, pellets, … Continue reading →

Are there any temperature restrictions on Battle Born Batteries? Battle Born Batteries protect themselves from charging in cold temperatures and won’t accept a charge once the internal cell temperature drops to 24°F. At this point they will continue to discharge … Continue reading →

A high-voltage contactor, also called a high-voltage relay without distinction in the industry, is widely used in electric vehicles (EV) and hybrid electric vehicles (HEV). It is an electromechanical switching device with a coil to generate a magnetic force that … Continue reading →

Batteries use a chemical reaction to do work on charge and produce a voltage between their output terminals. The basic element is called an electrochemical cell and makes use of an oxidation/reduction reaction. Is discharging a battery a chemical change? … Continue reading →

C-6 “Flatfire” Plastic Explosive is grey block of plastique, can be detonated by timer, tripwire or signal. The basic blast radius for C-6 is 5m. What does C stand for in C-4 explosive? composition 4C-4, or composition 4, is one … Continue reading →

Lead Acid Batteries Pros: Cheap, powerful, easily rechargeable, high power output capability. Cons: Very heavy, batteries tend to be very large bricks because power density is very low. Prices: A 12V lead acid battery with 7Ah of charge should run … Continue reading →

Lead is a chemical element with the symbol Pb (from the Latin plumbum) and atomic number 82. It is a heavy metal that is denser than most common materials. Lead Atomic number (Z) 82 Group group 14 (carbon group) Period … Continue reading →

Azidoazide azide. Azidoazide azide is the most explosive chemical compound ever created. It is part of a class of chemicals known as high-nitrogen energetic materials, and it gets its “bang” from the 14 nitrogen atoms that compose it in a … Continue reading →

Lithium is an element valuable for the production of glass, aluminum products, and batteries. It is mined from ores of petalite LiAl(Si2O5)2, lepidolite K(Li,Al)3(Al,Si,Rb)4O10(F,OH)2, spodumene LiAl(SiO3)2 and also subsurface brines. Australia and Chile are the world’s largest producers of lithium. … Continue reading →

The electrolyte filling and sealing stage of cell manufacture must be carried out in a “dry room” since the electrolyte is highly reactive with moisture. Moisture causes the electrolyte to decompose with the emission of toxic gases. How does humidity … Continue reading →

Its simple atoms, containing just three protons each, make lithium the lightest of all metals. In its pure form, lithium will actually float on the oil it is normally stored in by chemists. Why Is lithium the lightest metal? Note: … Continue reading →

Lithium has a melting point of 180.54 C, a boiling point of 1342 C, a specific gravity of 0.534 (20 C), and a valence of 1. It is the lightest of the metals, with a density approximately half that of … Continue reading →

Magnesium oxide conducts electricity in molten state because the ions are free to move in its liquid state but in solid state ions are in a fixed position.. Why does magnesium oxide only conduct electricity when molten? 9. Magnesium conducts … Continue reading →
