What is the valence configuration of potassium

Chemistry
1 answer:
photoshop1234 [79]1 year ago
6 0

Answer:

Explanation:

Ground state electron configuration of potassium (K) is 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6 4s1. The valency of the element is determined by electron configuration in the excited state. This electron configuration shows that the last shell of the potassium atom has an unpaired electron (4s1). So the valency of potassium is 1.

What is gay lussas law​
galben [10]

<u>Gay lussas law​:</u>

Gay-Lussac law states that the pressure for a given gas’ mass changes directly to an absolute gas temperature, provided that the volume held to be constant. The mathematical expressions of Gay-Lussac law also correspond to those of Charles Law:

                     \frac{P}{T} \text { or } \frac{P_{1}}{T_{1}}=\frac{P_{2}}{T_{2}}

This gas law is important because it shows that an increase in gas temperature increases the pressure proportionally (if the volume does not change). Similarly, as the temperature decreases, the pressure decreases proportionally.

When 2.499 g of AX (s) dissolves in 135.3 g of water in a coffee-cup calorimeter the temperature rises from 23.6 °C to 35.2 °C.
Elena L [17]

Answer:

The enthalpy change for the solution process \Delta H_{rxn} = - 158.34 kJ/mol

Explanation:

Given that:

The mass of salt AX = 2.499 g

The mass of water = 135.3 g

The mass of the solution = ( 2.499 + 135.3 ) g = 137.799 g

The specific heat of salt solution s is known to be = 4.18 J/g° C

The change in temperature i.e. ΔT = 35.2 °C -  23.6 °C = 11.6 °C

Thus, the amount of heat raised is equal to the heat absorbed by the calorimeter.

∴

q_{reaction} = q_{solution}

q_{reaction} = -ms_{solution} \Delta T

q_{reaction} = -137.799 \ g \times 4.18 \dfrac{J}{g^0C}\times 11.6^0C

q_{reaction} = - 6682 \ J

q_{reaction} = - 6.682 \ kJ

Recall that the mass of the salt = 2.499 g

The number of moles of the salt = 2.499 \ g \times \dfrac{1 \ mol  \ of  \ AX}{59.1097 \ g}

= 0.0422 mol of AX

Finally the enthalpy change, \Delta H_{rxn} =  \dfrac{- 6.682 \ kJ}{ 0.0422 \ mol}

= - 158.34 kJ/mol

The enthalpy change for the solution process \Delta H_{rxn} = - 158.34 kJ/mol

During the 1960s and 1970s, Cesar Chavez
Rashid [163]

Answer:

The correct answer is option (3) "using nonviolent tactics such as boycotts and hunger strikes".

Explanation:

Cesar Chavez was a leader of American labor and civil right activists that fought to unionized migrant farm workers by the creation of The National Farm Workers Association. Cesar Chaves used nonviolent tactics to support the migrant farm workers. For instance, when Filipino American farm workers protested for higher wages in 1965, he encouraged Americans to boycott table grapes to support them; while he once performed a 24-day hunger strike in 1972 in the Santa Rita Center as a response to Arizona prohibiting boycotts and strikes by farm workers.
