Answer: yes
Explanation:
Not all the time, but temperature change can happen during a chemical reaction.
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:
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)

Answer:
A
Explanation:
Molecules of a gas are relatively more compressible than those of liquids and solids because they are relatively far apart without any intermolecular forces between them. However, at lower temperature and higher pressure, there is now a significant intermolecular interaction between the gas molecules and they are no longer relatively far apart. Hence they are more compressible than liquids and solids which already possess significant intermolecular interaction and thus a definite volume.
