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.
Explanation:
Metals are the species which readily lose electrons in order to attain stability. This electron lost by the atom is actually present in its outermost shell which is also known as valence shell.
Ionization energy is defined as the energy required to remove the most loosely bound electron from a neutral gaseous atom.
When we move across a period from left to right then there occurs a decrease in atomic size of the atoms. Therefore, ionization energy increases along a period.
But when we move down a group then there occurs an increase in atomic size of the atoms due to addition of number of electrons in the atoms. Hence, ionization energy decreases along a group.
Thus, we can conclude that metals have low ionization energies and readily share their valence or outer electrons with each other to form an electron sea. These electrons are delocalized or shared among all the atoms that are bonded together and can therefore move freely throughout the metal structure.
The unit for work is ENERGY
3 subatomic particles in the nucleus
which is proton(24),neutron (28) and electrons(24)
