It either forms a base or an acid...I think that's the answer you're looking for
Stirring this is because the three elements are factors affecting dissolving of a solvent. Eg temprature affects in hotness or coldness, Particle size affects whether it is big or small while quantity of soluble affects by the amount
Ca(s)+2Hcl(aq) ------>CaCl2(s)+H2(g)
"Work done by a constant force on an object is the product of the force and the distance moved by the object in the direction of the force" -textbook
There is work done ONLY if the direction of the force and the direction the item is moving are the same. In figure A, the direction of the force (the lifting) is upwards (defying gravity), and the book is moving upwards, so work is done. In figure B, the force is still moving upwards (the person is carrying the books) but the book is moving to the right, so there is NO work done.

Although it may seem that transition metals would have more than 8 valence electrons, they in fact do not.
