Part 1: name the type of chemical reaction that occurs when aluminum (al) reacts with copper nitrate (cu(no3)2).
part 2: explain why aluminum does not react with potassium nitrate (kno3) although it reacts with copper nitrate.

Part 1: Single displacement or redox

Part 2: Al is above Cu but below K in the activity series

Explanation:

Part 1

2Al + 3Cu(NO₃)₂ ⟶ 3Cu + 2Al(NO₃)₃

(a) You could call this a single displacement reaction, because aluminium is displacing copper from its salt.

(b) You could also call this a reduction-oxidation reaction, because Al is oxidized to Al³⁺ and Cu²⁺ is reduced to Cu.

Part 2

Al reacts with Cu(NO₃)₂ because Al is above Cu in the activity series.

Al does not react with KNO₃ because Al is below K in the activity series.

answer: option (b) is the correct answer.

explanation:

a covalent bond is formed by sharing of electrons. whereas polarity arises due to difference in electronegativity of two atoms.

therefore, more is the electronegativity of an atom which combines with the titanium, more readily it will induce a partial positive and negative charge.

thus, out of the given options fluorine is most electronegative and has an incomplete octet. therefore, it will readily combine with titanium to share the electrons and complete its octet.  

when—without warning—something provokes your anger, you may struggle not to succumb to it. since what typically makes you mad is feeling powerless in the face of what seems unfair, your anger is mostly an attempt at a “quick fix” to right the balance. it’s as though you’re raising a fist in protest, proclaiming that you’re not going to capitulate to such injustice.

there are, however, a multitude of problems related to this immediate, push-back reaction of anger. and probably the key one is that almost never does it resolve the issue that gave rise to it. such reactive anger is probably best understood as self-defeating. as david burns, the author of the seminal self- book feeling good, observes: if realistically, acting on your anger is to make any sense, it needs to meet two criteria—which, in almost every case, is frankly impossible. that is, your anger must:

be directed toward a person who has intentionally (and needlessly) behaved in a hurtful way toward you; and

be beneficial or advantageous to you (i.e., assist you in achieving a desired goal).

i think you’ll agree that only rarely can you claim that your anger is both warranted and , whether to yourself or the relationship.

so let me offer you a two-step alternative to abandoning your better judgment and giving in to the temptation of anger—one that should neutralize your anger in seconds. or, when you’re really angry, in minutes.

but keep in mind that you must really want to execute these steps, be sufficiently motivated to perform them. which means overcoming more unconscious resistance than you might ever have imagined. because there are many immediate “advantages” of anger that can interfere with your resolve, i’ll suggest a few of them that might interfere with your employing this powerful method to rid yourself of counter-productive anger.
