Match each element to the correct description of its usual behavior in a
chemical reaction.

Calcium (Ca) - will lose electrons

Sulfur (S) - will gain electrons

Carbon (C) could lose or gain electrons

Neon (Ne) Does not gain or lose electrons

c. heat could easily travel through the molecules in the air and escape/enter the flask. removing the air slows down the heat transfer.  

both adhesion and cohesion are attractions.

they are different in that adhesion is the force of attraction between the molecules of two different substances, whereas cohesion is the force of attraction between molecules of the same substance.

possible examples include capillary action, in which the adhesion between water and glass causes the water to rise in a narrow tube against the force of gravity.

because of hydrogen bonding, water is extremely cohesive.

this causes molecules on the surface of water to be drawn inward, which is why drops of water form beads on smooth surfaces.

hope this .
