Answer: K only has 1 valence electron. It will leave with only a little effort, leaving behind a positively charged K^+1 atom.
Explanation: A neutral potassium atom has 19 total electrons. But only 1 of them is in potassium's valence shell. Valence shell means the outermost s and p orbitals. Potasium's electron configuration is 1s^2 2s^2 2p^6 3s^2 3p^6 4s^1. The 4s orbital is the only orbital in the 4th energy level. So it has a valency of 1. This means this electron will be the most likely to leave, since it is the lone electron in the oyutermost energy level (4). When that electron leaves, the charge on the atom go up by 1. The atom now has a full valence shell of 3s^2 3p^6, the same as argon, Ar.
Protons and neutrons.
Note: They probably are ABOUT the same mass. Don't think they are exactly the same.
Hope this helps!
Answer:
Percent yield: 78.2%
Explanation:
Based on the reaction:
4Al + 3O₂ → 2Al₂O₃
<em>4 moles of Al produce 2 moles of Al₂O₃</em>
<em />
To find percent yield we need to find theoretical yield (Assuming a yield of 100%) and using:
(Actual yield (6.8g) / Theoretical yield) × 100
Moles of 4.6g of Al (Molar mass: 26.98g/mol) are:
4.6g Al × (1mol / 26.98g) = 0.1705 moles of Al.
As 4 moles of Al produce 2 moles of Al₂O₃, theoretical moles of Al₂O₃ obtained from 0.1705 moles of Al are:
0.17505 moles Al × (2 moles Al₂O₃ / 4 moles Al) = <em>0.0852 moles of Al₂O₃</em>,
In grams (Molar mass Al₂O₃ = 101.96g/mol):
0.0852 moles of Al₂O₃ × (101.96g / mol) =
<h3>8.7g of Al₂O₃ can be produced (Theoretical yield)</h3>
Thus, Percent yield is:
(6.8g / 8.7g) × 100 =
<h3>
78.2% </h3>
Answer:
1. 43.44g of HCl
2. 26.67 L of HCl
Explanation:
1) Molarity of a solution = number of moles (n) ÷ Volume (V)
According to the provided information in this question,
V = 350 mL = 350/1000 = 0.350L
Molarity = 3.4 M
Using Molarity = n/V
3.4 = n/0.350
n = 3.4 × 0.350
n = 1.19mol
Using the formula below to calculate the mass of HCl;
mole = mass/molar mass
Molar mass of HCl = 1 + 35.5 = 36.5g/mol
mole = mass/MM
mass = 1.19 mol × 36.5g/mol
mass = 43.44g of HCl
2) At STP, HCl has a pressure of 1atm, a temperature of 273K
V = ?
n = 1.19 mol
R = 0.0821 Latm/molK
Using PV = nRT
V = nRT/P
V = 1.19 × 0.0821 × 273/1
Volume = 26.67L
