> How many valence electrons does a helium atom have?

The electron configuration of Helium is simply 1s2. We see that its outermost shell is the s shell and it contains 2 electrons, therefore the number of valence electrons is also 2.

 

> What is the formula of the ion formed when potassium achieves noble-gas electron configuration?

Potassium has a electron configuration of [Ar] 4s1. To have an electron configuration of only [Ar] which is a noble gas, the one electron from 4s1 should be removed, hence:

How many days does it take 16.Og of Gold-198 to decay to 1.0g? (each half-
forsale [732]

Answer:

10.8 days (3 sig.figs.)

Explanation:

All radioactive decay is 1st order decay defined by the expression A = A₀e^-kt

which is solved for time of decay (t) => t = ln(A/A₀) / -k

A = final weight = 1.0 gram

A₀ = initial weight = 16.0 grams

k = rate constant = 0.693/t(1/2) = 0.693/2.69 days = 0.258 days⁻¹

t = ln(1/16) / -0.258da⁻¹ = (-2.77/-0.258) days = 10.74646792 days (calculator)

≅ 10 days (1 sig. fig. based on given 1 gram mass)

How do solve for density?
Pachacha [2.7K]
Density(D) is defined as Mass(M) divided by Volume(V).

The formula for Density is:

D = M / V.

Another way to remember the formula for Density is to remember "Mass per unit of volume".

I hope this helps!

Explain what it means to be considered a “renewable” energy source, and what it means to be a “non-renewable” energy source.
Neporo4naja [7]

Answer: Resources are characterized as renewable or nonrenewable

- a renewable resource can replenish itself at the rate it is used such as solar energy, wind energy, hydro energy, and tidal energy.

- a nonrenewable resource has a limited supply such as coal, gas, nuclear energy, and fossil fuels.
