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)

4.

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.

Based on the information in the table, which of the following arranges the bonds in order of decreasing polarity?
patriot [66]

Polarity is the chemical property based on the electric charge and orientation of the poles. Al−O>H−Br>As−S is arranged in decreasing order of polarity. Thus, option d is correct.

<h3>What is polarity?</h3>

Polarity is a chemical property of the distribution of the electrical charges over their respective atom in the molecule joined by the bonds. The relation between the polarity and the difference in electronegativity is directly proportional.

The electronegativity difference between the elements are:

  • Al−O = 1.8
  • H−Br = 0.8
  • As−S = 0.4

As the electronegativity difference between Al−O = 1.8 is the highest it will have the highest polarity followed by H−Br = 0.8, and As−S = 0.4, with the lowest polarity.

Therefore, option D. Al−O>H−Br>As−S is arranged in decreasing order of polarity.

nexus9112 [7]

Answer is: The solution has now become a good conductor of electricity.

Hydrochloric acid (HCl) dissociate on positive ions or cations of hydogen (H⁺) and negative ions or anions of chlorine (Cl⁻) accordinf to balanced chemical reaction:

HCl(aq) → H⁺(aq) + Cl⁻(aq).

When there are free cations and ions, water solution can conduct electricity.

Inessa [10]

Answer:

B. temperature decreases as altitude increases.

Explanation:

Just like in the lower reaches of the atmosphere, the troposphere, in the mesosphere, temperature decreases as altitude increases.

The mesosphere is the third layer of the atmosphere just above the stratosphere.

  • It begins at the top of the stratosphere and ends at the mesopause where the thermosphere begins.
  • The mesosphere is often referred to as the middle layer.

With increasing height, the temperature of the mesosphere decreases significantly. The top of the mesosphere is one of the coldest part of the earth atmosphere. This is as a result of increasing atmospheric cooling by carbon dioxide in this region of the atmosphere.
