Calcium nitrate and calcium carbonate are both ionic compounds. Calcium nitrate mixed with water behaves as an electrolyte.

Calcium carbonate mixed with water does not behave as an electrolyte.

Explain, in terms of solubility and movement of ions, this difference in behaviour

Calcium nitrate is soluble in water and dissociate into ions whereas calcium carbonate is insoluble and water and do not form ions.

Explanation:

An electrolyte is a substance which conducts electricity in molten form or when dissolved in water.

The ability of an electrolyte to conduct electricity is due the movement of charged particles called ions. The ions are of two types: negatively charged ions called anions and positively charged ions called cations.

Calcium nitrate is a soluble in water, and when dissolved in water produces two ions; negatively charged nitrate ions,NO₃⁻, and positively charged calcium ions, Ca²⁺. These ions enable it to conduct electricity.

Calcium carbonate on the other hand is insoluble in water, and thus, do not produces any ions capable of carrying current.

the earth would become to overheated and everything alive on it will eventually die from overheating. plants will eventually die as well, water will evaporate, and it will be nothing but a hot planet without anything living on it.

a. energy is absorbed in the reaction.

if in a given reaction the energy of products is greater than the energy of reactants it means that reaction is endothermic and during the reaction, the energy is absorbed by reactants. in an endothermic reaction, the products have more stored chemical energy than the reactants. and in this reaction the reactants are more stable than products before the compounds with less energy are always more stable.
