Explanation:
1.
Cu(NO3)2 + 2NaCl(aq) --> CuCl2(aq) + 2NaNO3(aq)
2.
Cu(NO3)2 + 2NaOH(aq) --> Cu(OH)2(s) + 2NaNO3(aq)
A light blue precipitate of Cu(OH)2 is formed and NaNO3 in solution.
3.
Cu(NO3)2(aq) --> Cu2+(aq) + 2NO3^-2(aq)
2NaOH(aq) --> 2Na+(aq) + 2OH-(aq)
Cu2+(aq) + 2OH-(aq) --> Cu(OH)2(aq)
2Na+(aq) + 2NO3^-2(aq) --> 2NaNO3(aq)

The reaction in both Questions 1 and 2 is called Double displacement reaction. A double-replacement reaction exchanges the cations and/or or the anions of two ionic compounds. A precipitation reaction is a double-replacement reaction in which one product is a solid precipitate (precipitated) while the other in solution.
Since the cation and anions in Qustion 1 were exchanged, the same was done for Question 2, hence the identity of the precipitate in Question 2 was got.
The type of energy which is present between the repulsion interaction is the highest potential energy.
<h3>What is potential energy?</h3>
Potential energy is the amount of energy that is possess by any body with respect to the electric charge posses in that and other factors also.
- When molecules have a high attraction force then they have the low potential energy in them.
- When molecules have a great repulsion between them then they have the great potential energy in them.
- And molecules have the middle amount of potential energy then they have the balanced interaction.
Hence, molecules in which repulsion interaction is present will have highest potential energy.
