Answer:
Number of protons and neutrons
Answer:
1)non.metals gain electron but metals lose electron.
2)metals are good conductor of heat and electricity but non.meatals are bad conductor of heat and electricity.
3)most of metals are shiny but non .metals are not.
The addition of sodium chloride to pure water causes the conductivity to INCREASE. The more NaCl present in the water, the higher the conductivity is because NaCl is an electrolyte. Once dissolved in water, it becomes Na and Cl which are corpuscles that conduct electricity.
The answer should be 2KI(aq)+Hg(NO3)2(aq) = 2KNO3(aq) + HgI2(s). This is a double replacement reaction, the valence of elements will not change. The HgI2 is not soluble in water.
