Copper is added to a solution of nitric acid. the solution becomes hot and changes from colorless to dark blue. what is the best explanation for the change in temperature?

When copper is added to a solution of nitric acid, their chemical reaction produces heat.

Explanation:

During the reaction between copper an d nitric acid, the copper metal is oxidised to form copper(ii) ion, by nitrate ion. Then this is converted into notrogen oxide gas. As, a result of this conversion, there is a binding of copper(ii) ion with water molecules of number 6. As a result of this, the copper metal will turn into a solution which is blue and a gas of brown color is obtained.

Thus when copper is added to nitric aci, there is a change in the temperature. The chemical reaction that takes place between Copper and Nitric acid solution generates heat. This process is an exotermic.

assuming that your periodic table has eighteen columns, you should highlight   the four elements in the third column from the left of the table.

neutral atoms of elements after calcium contain d electrons. the energy of d orbitals of a particular main shell lies between the energy of the s and p orbitals of the next main shell. for example, electrons in the have energy higher than those in the orbital while lower than those of the orbital.

by the aufbau principle, electrons fill orbitals one at a time, starting from those of the lowest energy. the orbital is therefore filled right after orbitals and before orbitals.  

potassium has electron configuration and calcium . the s orbital of a main shell holds a maximum of two electrons. the next element would thus have the electron configuration and satisfy the requirements.

a neutral atom of the element contains three electrons on top of the most recent noble gas element. it should thus be placed in the third column of the periodic table. both scandium and yttrium would satisfy the conditions. an aufbau diagram indicates that the 4f orbital is filled before the 5d. however, it appears that exceptions exists for both lanthanum and actinium. neutral atoms of the two d-block elements also demonstrate the and should be highlighted as well.

the cold front replaces the warmer air at the ground level changing the wind to be breezy and denser.there is also an immediate drop in the temperature.
