Answer is: c. CuSO4 + 2NaOH yields Cu(OH)2 + Na2SO4.
Copper atom has oxidation number +2, sulfur atom oxidation number +6, oxygen has oxidation number-2, sodium has oxidation number +1 and hydrogen has +1 on both side of chemical reaction, so elements did not change their oxidation numbers.
Fluorite is harder than gypsum but softer than apatite. Thus, the correct option is B.
<h3>What is the hardness of any element?</h3>
The hardness of any element may be defined as the capability of a material to oppose the process of deformation and remains in actual shape precisely.
According to the table of hardness scales by Mohs, the increasing order of given hardness of given elements is as follows:
Gypsum < Fluorite < Apatite.
Therefore, Fluorite is harder than gypsum but softer than apatite. Thus, the correct option is B.
