Flow of heat energy through liquids and<br> gases
riadik2000 [5.3K]
Answer : I hope this helps !

Liquids and gases are fluids because they can be made to flow. The particles in these fluids can move from place to place. Convection occurs when particles with a lot of heat energy in a liquid or gas move and take the place of particles with less heat energy.

The reaction below demonstrates which characteristic of a base?
svlad2 [7]

Answer: option D. the ability of a base to react with a soluble metal salt.


Justification:


NaOH is a strong base, which means that in water it will dissociate according to this reaction:


  • NaOH(aq) → Na⁺ (aq) + OH⁻ (aq)

On the other hand, CuSO₄ is a soluble ionic salt which in water will dissociate into its ions according to this other reaction:

  • CuSO₄(aq) → Cu²⁺ + SO₄²⁻

Hence, in solution, the sodium ion (Na⁺) will  react with the metal salt in a double replacement reaction, where the highly reactive sodium ion (Na⁺) will substitute the Cu²⁺ in the CuSO₄ to form the sodium sulfate salt, Na₂SO₄ (water soluble), and the copper(II) hydroxide, Cu(OH)₂ (insoluble).


That is what the given reaction represents:


  CuSO₄ (aq)     +     2NaOH(aq)    →    Cu(OH)₂(s)       +     Na₂SO₄(aq)

         ↑                                ↑                         ↑                            ↑

soluble metal salt       strong base       insoluble base       solube salt

What electrically neutral atom will have an electron configuration of 1s2 2s2 2p4?
abruzzese [7]

Answer:- oxygen.

Explanations:- The electronic configuration is given and we are asked to figure out the electrically neutral atom that will have the electron configuration, 1s^22s^22p^4 .

The sum of electrons for this electron configuration is 8. If we look at the periodic table then 8 is the atomic number of oxygen.

So, the electrically neutral atom for the given electron configuration is oxygen.
