Electropositivity is a measure of an element's ability to donate electrons, and therefore form positive ions; thus, it is antipode to electronegativity. Mainly, this is an attribute of metals , meaning that, in general, the greater the metallic character of an element the greater the electropositivity.
He found an equation that fit these curves, which is now called Paschen's law. [ 3 ] At higher pressures and gap lengths, the breakdown voltage is approximately proportional to the product of pressure and gap length, and the term Paschen's law is sometimes used to refer to this simpler relation.

New York: The International Nickel Company, Inc., 1941: 16. — "Values ranging from 21.3 to 21.5 gm/cm 3 at 20 °C have been reported for the density of annealed platinum; the best value being about 21.45 gm/cm 3 at 20 °C." 21.46 g/cm 3 — Rose, T. Kirke. The Precious Metals, Comprising Gold, Silver and Platinum. New York: D. Van Nostrand ...
Elastic properties describe the reversible deformation (elastic response) of a material to an applied stress.They are a subset of the material properties that provide a quantitative description of the characteristics of a material, like its strength.
Saturation is most clearly seen in the magnetization curve (also called BH curve or hysteresis curve) of a substance, as a bending to the right of the curve (see graph at right). As the H field increases, the B field approaches a maximum value asymptotically , the saturation level for the substance.
Zinc(I) is known mostly in the gas phase, in such compounds as linear Zn 2 Cl 2, analogous to calomel. In the solid phase, the rather exotic compound decamethyldizincocene (Cp*Zn–ZnCp*) is known. Classification
Michael Conahan was sentenced to 17½ years in the judicial scandal, which the FBI described as the “worst in Pennsylvania’s history.”
Typical Zn salts are ZnSO 4, Zn(OTf) 2, and Zn(TFSI) 2. [13] Zinc sulfate is widely used today because of its lower cost and electrode stability, but the larger triflate and TFSI anions can lead to higher conductivities. Despite the advantages of aqueous electrolytes, the hydrogen evolution reaction and facile dendrite growth limit their use.
