> 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 much heat is needed warm 65.34 g of water from 18.43 to 21.75
BaLLatris [955]

Given that  

Mass of water = 65.34 g

Amount of heat = mass of water * specific heat (temperature change

)

= 65.34 g * 4.184 J / g-C ( 21.75-18.43 )C

= 907.63  J  

= 0.908 KJ

And  

1 cal = 4.186798 J

907.63 J * 1 cal / 4.186798 J =216.78  cal

Or0.218 kcal
