Explanation:

Both conduction and convection are both forms of heat transfer from one place to another.

In conduction, there must be contact between two bodies for the process to take place but in convection, the matter moves to transfer heat.
Conduction mostly occurs in solid substances whereas convection occurs mostly in fluids.
Heat transfer in conduction is quite slow compared to convection which is much faster.

Example of conduction is heating of iron pot when cooking

Example of convection is the refrigerating system.

Explain how to draw the electron-dot diagram for oxygen.

AlexFokin [52]

The electron dot diagram for the oxygen atom shows six electrons around the symbol of the atom.

<h3>What is the electron dot diagram?</h3>

The electron dot diagram is the diagram of atoms of elements showing only the valence electrons present in the atom represented with dots.

The electron dot diagram for the oxygen atom is drawn as follows:

The number of valence electrons in oxygen atom is determined; valence electrons = 6
The symbol for the oxygen atom is written
The valence electrons are shown as dots around the symbol of the element.

In conclusion, the electron dot diagram uses dots around the symbol of an atom to show the valence electrons in the atom.

Which one of the following compounds is not covalent?

denpristay [2]

KCI is not a covalent compound, it is an ionic compound.
A covalent compound is one in which each of the atoms involved contribute a specific number of electrons for sharing in order to from stable compound while an ionic compound is a compound formed when one atom donates electron to the other atom in the compound, in order to attain stability. The compounds given in options A, B and D shared electrons while in KCl, potassium donates an electron to chlorine.
