The first blank is Covalent compound
For the second blank, you are correct, though you may elaborate by specifying 'valence' electrons
A) because spontaneous means in an instant
The chemical formula of a carbonate ion is CO3^2-. It is an AX3 system which means it take the trigonal planar shape. There would be two single bonds of C-O and one double bond C-O in order for C to agree with the octet rule. Two minus charges are equally distributed to the three oxygen atoms so that each oxygen of the carbonate ion would have a charge of negative 2/3.
Answer: A force must cause an object to move along the same direction as the force.
Explanation:
Work is defined as displacement in the position of an object due to action of force. Mathematically the work done is a product of force and displacement of an object. The direction of the force applied and direction in which object is displaced is always same.

When work is done,a force must cause an object to move along the same direction as the force.
