For 1: Neutralization reaction

For 2: Zinc is more reactive than lead and less reactive than calcium.

Explanation:

For (1):

When a base reacts with an acid to form a salt and water molecule, it is known as a neutralization reaction. The general equation follows:

$HX+BOH\rightarrow BX+H_2O$

The chemical equation for the reaction of calcium hydroxide and nitric acid follows:

$Ca(OH)_2(aq)+2HNO_3(aq)\rightarrow Ca(NO_3)_2(aq)+2H_2O(l)$

For (2):

A single displacement reaction is defined as the reaction in which a more reactive metal displaces a less reactive metal from its salt solution. The general chemical equation follows:

$A+BX\rightarrow AX+B$

where,

Metal A is more reactive than metal B

The reactivity of metals is judged by the reactivity series where a metal lying above in the series is more reactive than the metal lying below it.

From the reactivity series below,

Zinc lies above in the series than lead thus is more reactive and will easily replace lead from its aqueous solution.

While zinc lies below in the series than calcium thus is less reactive and will not easily replace calcium from its aqueous solution.

$Zn(s)+Pb(NO_3)_2(aq)\rightarrow Zn(NO_3)_2(aq)+Pb(s)$

$Zn(s)+CaCl_2(aq)\rightarrow \text{No reaction}$

Answer from: Quest

- calcium has greater affinity to bond with electron receptors than hydrogen does and hence, it has the ability to replace hydrogen in most of its compounds.

- lithium has 2 valence electrons in the product because it can make only 1 bond with hydrogen. beryllium has 4 valence electrons in the product because it can only make 2 bonds. it has fewer electrons than neon and can react with electron donors. each hydrogen has 2 valence electrons, the same as helium.

- the covalent bond formed between carbon and hydrogen is polar because carbon is more electronegative than hydrogen and it attracts the bonded electron pair closer to itself, thus giving hydrogen a partial positive charge.

- a hydrogen bond is a relatively weak bond that hydrogen atoms make with the electronegative atoms nitrogen, oxygen or fluorine.

so the best choice is a.) 2 calcium (ca) atoms
