They have free electron(s) on their outermost energy levels making them good conductors.
They have metallic bonds in their chemical structure.
They readily lose the electrons on their outermost energy levels, to bond with non-metals in ionic bonds to form chemical compounds called "salts"
Answer:
TRUE
Explanation:
All carboxylic acid derivatives have in common the fact that they undergo hydrolysis (a cleav- age reaction with water) to yield carboxylic acids. with hydroxide ion to yield a carboxylate salt and an alcohol. The carboxylic acid itself is formed when a strong acid is subsequently added to the reaction mixture.

Answer:
Complete ionic:

Net ionic: 
.
Explanation:
Start by identifying species that exist as ions. In general, such species include:
- Soluble salts.
- Strong acids and strong bases.
All four species in this particular question are salts. However, only three of them are generally soluble in water: 
, 
, and 
. These three salts will exist as ions:
- Each
formula unit will exist as one 
ion and one 
ion. - Each formula unit will exist as one
ion and two 
ions (note the subscript in the formula 
.) - Each formula unit will exist as one and two ions.
On the other hand, 
is generally insoluble in water. This salt will not form ions.
Rewrite the original chemical equation to get the corresponding ionic equation. In this question, rewrite , , and (three soluble salts) as the corresponding ions.
Pay attention to the coefficient of each species. For example, indeed each formula unit will exist as only one ion and one ion. However, because the coefficient of 
in the original equation is two, 
alone should correspond to two 
ions and two 
ions.
Do not rewrite the salt because it is insoluble.
.
Eliminate ions that are present on both sides of this ionic equation. In this question, such ions include one unit of and two units of . Doing so will give:
.
Simplify the coefficients:
.
