Put simply, a covalent bond is a chemical bond between two atoms where electron pairs are shared.
Calcium. This element is in the alkaline earth metals. As such, it <em>could be a good conductor</em>. This is because it can form metallic bonds.
Answer:
1. CO₃⁻² + H₂O ⇄ HCO₃⁻ + OH⁻
2. HCO₃⁻ + H₂O ⇄ H₂CO₃ + OH⁻
3. H₂CO₃ → H₂O + CO₂
Basic solution
Explanation:
Brønsted Lowry theory:
Acid → Release a proton
Base → Accept a proton
1. CO₃⁻² + H₂O ⇄ HCO₃⁻ + OH⁻
Carbonate takes a proton from the water
2. HCO₃⁻ + H₂O ⇄ H₂CO₃ + OH⁻
Bicarbonate takesa proton from the water to produce carbonic acid.
3. H₂CO₃ → H₂O + CO₂
Carbonate acid decomposes into CO₂ and H₂O
In the first reaction, when the carbonate takes a proton from the water, water releases OH⁻, so the solution is basic.

Answer:
The time decreases steadily
Explanation:
We know that the rate of chemical reaction is defined as how fast or slow a chemical reaction proceeds. Hence a chemical reaction is said to proceed at a faster rate if it takes a lesser time for the reaction to get to completion.
There are certain factors that affects the rate of reaction, prominent among them is the concentration of reactants. Concentration simply means the amount of substance in a system.
Taking a look at the table given in the question, we will realize that the volume of HCl remained constant, the volume of thiosulphate increased steadily while the volume of water decreased steadily. Remember that concentration increases when less water is added to the system. This implies that the reactant concentration increases steadily. Hence, according to the collision theory, particles collide more frequently and the rate of reaction increases.
As the rate of reaction increases, it now takes a lesser time for the reaction to get to completion (indicated by the disappearance of the cross). Hence as we move down the table, it takes lesser and lesser time for the cross to disappear. This means that the column for time will decrease steadily.
