Active listening occurs whenever you are attentive to the verbal and nonverbal information being shared by a speaker.

A survey of 1,000 executives ranked listening as the top skill of an ideal manager.

Which of the following salt compounds will have increased solutility under acidic conditions? Hint:  Consider the acid-base properties of the salts.
