Answer is: C.) If the solid is conductive, the bonds are metallic.

1) Substances with ionic bond conduct an electric current in liquid, but not in solid state, because in liquids ions are mobile, contrary to solids where ions are fixed.

2) Substances with covalent bond not conduct an electric current in liquid and solid state, because they not have free ions or electrons.

3) Substances with metallic  bond conduct an electric current in liquid and solid state, because they have mobile electrons. Most metals have strong metallic bond, because strong electrostatic attractive force between valence electrons (metals usually have low ionization energy and lose electrons easy) and positively charged metal ions.

A. : In this reaction one of the product, FeS is insoluble. Therefore, this is a precipitation reaction.


B. : In this reaction, the product is a solid(insoluble). So, this is a precipitation reaction too.


C.: In this reaction, both the products are soluble. So this is not a precipitation reaction.


D.: In this reaction, both the products are soluble. So this is not a precipitation reaction.


E. : In this reaction, the product AgCl is a precipitate. So, it is a precipitation reaction.

Gemiola [76]
We know that domestic dogs are descended from wolves. Exactly when and how this occurred is still being studied; many experts indicate that dogs were first domesticated about 12,000 years ago, but a few DNA studies indicate a much earlier date for the split between the wolf and the dog, perhaps as long ago as 130,000 years. Regardless of the exact timing of the divergence between wolves and dogs, one thing is true: both species display quite a bit of genetic diversity, particularly in size and coloration.In order to breed a dog of a specific size, all one has to do is choose parents with the appropriate variations. For instance, if you want to create a small dog breed, you would just breed the smallest dogs you have, then you would choose their smallest offspring to breed the next generation, and so on until you have reached the desired size.

____ [38]

Answer:

  • <em>Oxidation half-reaction</em>:

Fe²⁺(aq) →  Fe³⁺(aq) + 1e⁻

  • <em>Reduction half-reaction</em>:

Ce⁴⁺(aq) + 1e⁻ →  Ce³⁺(aq)

Explanation:

The reaction that takes place is:

  • Fe²⁺(aq) + Ce⁴⁺(aq) → Fe³⁺(aq) + Ce³⁺(aq)

The <em>oxidation half-reaction</em> is:

  • Fe²⁺(aq) →  Fe³⁺(aq) + 1e⁻

It is an oxidation because the oxidation state of Fe increases from 2+ to 3+.

The <em>reduction half-reaction</em> is:

  • Ce⁴⁺(aq) + 1e⁻ →  Ce³⁺(aq)

It is a reduction because the oxidation state of Ce decreases from 4+ to 3+.
