A functional group is a specific arrangement of atoms in an organic compound that is capable of characteristic reactions Is this true of false

PLEASE HELPP

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

ca has a crystalline lattice with positive ions (since it is a metal, metals are positively charged) and electrons flow freely in its structure since the ca atoms have a large nuclear radius so the electrons are not tightly held, therefore the electrons can flow freely since they are not being highly attracted by the nucleus. moreover, one of the properties of metals are that they are conductors of electricity, thus proving ca is the element.
