Answer:

NaCl will only conduct electricity in solutions

Explanation:

For electrical conduction, free mobile electrons as seen in most metals must be present or ions which are charged particles must be available for solutions and molten substances.

Sodium chloride is an ionic compound without free mobile electrons or ions despite being ionic.
It will maintain a subtle and unique charge stability when in solid form.
In solid, the ions are not free to move and remain locked up in the solid mass.
When introduced into a solution, the ions becomes free to move and this will aid electrical conduction.

Copper (Cu) is often used for electrical wiring and cooking pans. However, iron (Fe) is much more common on Earth than copper. W

Sergeeva-Olga [200]

What iron gives in its abundance, it takes away in it's inability to really conduct heat and electricity well. There is enough copper around, if we are careful in its use, to make copper bottomed pots and pans. Of the three best conductors in the world (silver, gold and copper) only copper has enough around and can be inexpensively mined that we make use of it.

If you google dr. copper, you will find he is an economist as well. Copper measures the wealth of an economy by how much is used. So iron might be cheaper and more abundant, but copper will save you much more in trying to do something with it.

Noble gas notation for calcium

Marizza181 [45]

Answer:

To find the noble gas notation, you first take the noble gas before the element you’re trying to find the notation for. In this case, the noble gas before Calcium is Argon. You put the symbol for Argon in square brackets, and then you write out the rest of the notation as you would normally.

This would look like [Ar]4s^2

The 4s^2 is because Calcium is the second element in the 4s columns (refer to the diagram)

Hope this helps :)
