What is the valence configuration of potassium

Chemistry
1 answer:
photoshop1234 [79]10 months 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.

Answer:

Theoretical yield of the reaction = 34 g

Excess reactant is hydrogen

Limiting reactant is nitrogen

Explanation:

Given there is 100 g of nitrogen and 100 g of hydrogen

Number of moles of nitrogen = 100 ÷ 28 = 3·57

Number of moles of hydrogen = 100 ÷ 2 = 50

Reaction between nitrogen and hydrogen yields ammonia according to the following chemical equation

N2 + 3H2 → 2NH3

From the above chemical equation for every mole of nitrogen that reacts, 3 moles of hydrogen will be required and 2 moles of ammonia will be formed

Now we have 3·57 moles of nitrogen and therefore we require 3 × 3·57 moles of hydrogen

⇒ We require 10·71 moles of hydrogen

But we have 50 moles of hydrogen

∴ Limiting reactant is nitrogen and excess reactant is hydrogen

From the balanced chemical equation the yield will be 2 × 3·57 moles of ammonia

Molecular weight of ammonia = 17 g

∴ Theoretical yield of the reaction = 2 × 3·57 × 17 = 121·38 g

A gas bubble has a volume of 0.650 mL at the bottom of a lake, where the pressure is
astraxan [27]

Considering the Boyle's law, as the pressure decreases, volume increases and has a value of 2.246 mL.

<h3>Boyle's law</h3>

Boyle's law establishes the relationship between the pressure and the volume of a gas when the temperature is constant.

This law says that the volume occupied by a given mass of gas at constant temperature is inversely proportional to the pressure. This means that if the pressure increases, the volume decreases, while if the pressure decreases, the volume increases.

Boyle's law is expressed mathematically as:

P×V=k

If an initial state 1 and a final state 2 are analyzed, Boyle's law is expressed as:

P1×V1=P2×V2

<h3>Volume at the surface of the lake</h3>

In this case, you know:

  • P1= 3.46 atm
  • V1= 0.650 mL
  • P2= 1 atm
  • V2= ?

Replacing in Boyle's law:

3.46 atm× 0.650 mL= 1 atm×V2

Solving:

V2= (3.46 atm× 0.650 mL)÷ 1 atm

<u><em>V2= 2.246 mL</em></u>

Finally, as the pressure decreases, volume increases and has a value of 2.246 mL.

silicon, tin, and lead are all in the same group. the density of tin is about 7.28 g/cm3 and the density of lead is about 11.34
Sophie [7]

The atom's radius and mass increase from top to bottom. The density of elements from top to bottom also increases in a periodic table.

Density of Sn= Mass of Sn/Volume of Sn

                     =24.3968/7.28

                     =3.49 g/ml*ml/cm³

                     =3.49 g/cm³

It is accurate to assume that the density of Sn will fall between that of Si and lead .  the mass number and radius of the atoms increase from group to group as we move from top to bottom in a periodic table.. The density rises because the increase in mass number is greater than the increase in radius. Simply multiplying by the molar mass of the gas  allows one to derive the formula for mass density from the formula for number density. Do not forget that the mass is equal to the moles (n) times the molar mass (M).  Smaller masses can be measured in grams instead of kilograms (kg), which is the standard SI unit for mass.
