The reaction between NaOH and H2SO4 is a reaction between an acid and a base which means the reaction is a neutralization that produces products of salt and water. The salt is Na2SO4. 
spectator ions are ions that are found at the both sides of the equation when the aqueous components are in their ionic forms. In this case, when breaking down of components is applied, the spectator ions are Na + and SO4 2- .

Answer : The spectator ions are, OH^-  and H^+

Explanation :

Spectator ions : It is defined as the ions present on reactant and product side which do not participate in a reactions. That means the same ions present on both the sides.

In the net ionic equations, we are not include the spectator ions in the equations.

The given balanced ionic equation will be,

2NaOH(aq)+H_2SO_4(aq)\rightarrow 2H_2O(aq)+Na_2SO_4(s)

The ionic equation in separated aqueous solution will be,

2Na^+(aq)+2OH^-(aq)+2H^+(aq)+SO_4^{2-}(aq)\rightarrow Na_2SO_4(s)+2H^+(aq)+2OH^-(aq)

In this equation, OH^-\text{ and }H^+ are the spectator ions.

By removing the spectator ions from the balanced ionic equation, we get the net ionic equation.

The net ionic equation will be,

2Na^+(aq)+SO_4^{2-}(aq)\rightarrow Na_2SO_4(s)

Therefore, the spectator ions are, OH^-  and H^+

6 At STP, which element is a good conductor of electricity?(1) chlorine (3) silver
alexgriva [62]
For an object to conduct electricity it should have free or delocalised electrons that are free to pass the charge and hence take part in conducting electricity.
From the given choices
Chlorine is a halogen existing as a diatomic gas. Iodine too is a halogen and 2 Iodine atoms held together by covalent bond. Cl - Cl bonds and I-I bonds are  covalent bonds. the outer electrons of Cl and I take part in covalent bonds therefore they are fixed and not free to move about. therefore no free electrons to conduct electricity.
Sulfur is a solid that too is held together by covalent bonds so it does not have free electrons to conduct electricity.

Silver is a metal and a general property of metals are their ability to conduct electricity.
metal structure are metal ions tightly packed together. when the metal atoms are tightly packed their valence electrons are removed and delocalised. Positively charged metal ions are embedded in a sea of delocalised electrons.
therefore there are delocalised electrons that can conduct electricity 


answer is 3) silver

Question 3 of 5
rusak2 [61]

Answer:

A. More mass

C. Shorter distance between them

Explanation:

The two characteristics of a body experiencing greater gravitational force are that they have mass and a shorter distance between them.

This is conformity with Newton's law of universal gravitation.

The law states that "every object attracts one another with a force that is directly proportional to their masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them".

This law implies that the more the mass of two bodies, the more the gravitational force of attraction. And that the shorter the square of the distance between them, the more the attraction.
