answer: e. sour taste

explanation: acids are those substances which dissociates in water to give $h^+$ ions. as they dissociate to give ions, they act as electrolytes and thus are electrically conductive. acids are sour in taste. example: hcl

$hcl\rightarrow h^++cl^-$

bases are those substances which dissociates in water to give $oh^-$ ions or accepts $h^+$ ions. as they dissociate to give ions, they act as electrolytes and thus are electrically conductive. bases are bitter in taste. bases are slippery in nature.

$naoh\rightarrow na^++oh^-$

$nh_3+h^+\rightarrow nh_4^+$

Answer from: Quest

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

explanation

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 $3d$ have energy higher than those in the $4 s$ orbital while lower than those of the $4 p$ orbital.

by the aufbau principle, electrons fill orbitals one at a time, starting from those of the lowest energy. the $4s$ orbital is therefore filled right after $3p$ orbitals and before $3 d$ orbitals.

potassium has electron configuration $[\text{ar}] 4 s^{1}$ and calcium $[\text{ar}] 4 s^{2}$ . the s orbital of a main shell holds a maximum of two electrons. the next element would thus have the electron configuration $[\text{ar}] 4 s^{2} \; 3d^{1}$ 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 $ns^{2} \; (n-1) p^{1}$ and should be highlighted as well.

The goal of this experiment was to answer the question "what is the effect of a gas' temperature on its volume? " you formulated the hypothesis below. hypothesis: if a fixed amount of gas is heated, then the volume will increase because the heat will cause the molecules of gas to move faster and further apart. to test this hypothesis, you changed the of the gas between 0 and 100°c (273 and 373 k) and calculated the resulting of the gas.

The chemical composition of soil varies with depth. an article in communications in soil science and plant analysis describes chemical analyses of soil taken from a farm in western australia. fifty specimens were each taken at depths 50 and 250 cm. at a depth of 50 cm, the average no3 concentration (in mg/l) was 88.5 with a standard deviation of 49.4. at a depth of 250 cm, the average concentration was 110.6 with a standard deviation of 51.5. find a 95% confidence interval for the difference in no3 concentrations at the two depths.
