What type of reaction is shown below? Ca + 2H2O - Ca(OH)2 + H2

1 answer:

5 0

A + BC ---> AB + C
So here one reactant (A) is accepting a group which is being given by another compound (BC) however the A is not giving any group / element or ion
So this single displacement
Similarly in the given reaction
the anion OH- is only being replaced
The element Ca accepts OH- and H2O loses the same group to form new element H2
So the correct answer is
Single replacement also known as single displacement.

The half of the moon facing the sun is always lit, but the different phases happen because:

zvonat [6]

Answer:

we only see parts of the lit side as the moon goes around the earth

Explanation:

Unlike the sun, the moon orbits the Earth. This is the reason why we see the different phases of the moon. The reflection of the moon is being illuminated back to us with the help of the sun. So, as the moon circles the Earth, we only see parts of the lit side. Such changes helps us see the moon in different phases such as the Third Quarter, Crescent, New Moon, Full Moon, etc.

For example, during "Full Moon," the moon's entire face is lit up by the sun. Thus, we see the entire moon's lit portion.

Thus, this explains the answer.
