The correct description for an atom of helium would be option C. An atom of helium has its valence electrons in its first energy level, it wouldn't and can't satisfy the Octet rule as it only has 2 electrons, but with 2, it has a full shell, as the first energy level can hold only 2 electrons.

knowing that the reaction of potassium in water is extremely exothermic, what would be the problem with adding a large piece of
anygoal [31]

Answer:

Explanation:

If the reaction is really exothermic (and it is) then the water would spatter all over the place. It would boil off if the container could hold it. It would also react according to the following reaction.

You are talking about a reaction like

2K + 2HOH = 2KOH + H2

For the following reaction, the equilibrium constant Kc is 2.0 at a certain temperature. The reaction is endothermic. What do yo
jeyben [28]

Answer:

The correct answer is : 'the concatenation of NO will increase'.

Explanation:

Any change in the equilibrium is studied on the basis of Le-Chatelier's principle.

This principle states that if there is any change in the variables of the reaction, the equilibrium will shift in the direction to minimize the effect.

If the temperature is increased, so according to the Le-Chatlier's principle , the equilibrium will shift in the direction where increase in temperature occurs.

2NOBr(g)\rightleftharpoons 2NO(g) + Br_2(g)

As, this is an endothermic reaction, increasing temperature will add more heat to the system which move equilibrium in the forward reaction with decrease in temperature. Hence, the equilibrium will shift in the right direction.

So, the concatenation of NO will increase.

PLEASE HELP!! A gas has a volume of 7.9 L at a temperature of 222. K and pressure of 877 mmHg. What is the new temperature (in C
Natali5045456 [20]

Answer:

82.97 K

Explanation:

Applying,

PV/T = P'V'/T'................ Equation 1

Where P = initial pressure, T = Initial temperature, V = Initial Volume, P' = Final pressure, V' = Final Volume, T' = Final Temperature.

Make T' the subject of formula in equation 1

T' = P'V'T/PV................ Equation 2

From the question,

Given: P = 877 mmHg = (877×0.001316) atm = 1.154 atm, T = 222.2 K, V = 7.9 L, P' = 0.327 atm, V' = 10.41 L

Substitute these values into equation 2

T' = (0.327×10.41×222.2)/(1.154×7.9)

T' = 82.97 K

Hence the new temperature is 82.97 K
