When potassium forms an ion, it will carry a +1 charge because it lost its electron. Also it is in group one of the periodic table which means it will have a +1 charge.

Answer:

Explanation:

21. Atoms are not created or destroyed means that atoms that you begin with are the atoms that you will end with. The catch is that the atoms will rearrange to give you new compounds, but the atoms that you initially had are the atoms you will still have after reaction. For eg, if you started with eggs and made omelet. Omelet is a "new" compound, but the atoms that were in the eggs have rearranged to become the omelet so can you see that atoms were not created or destroyed to make the omelet.

22. Yes because amount of products you make depends on how much reactants you have. For eg, I need two graham cracker(GC), one marshmallow(M), and one chocolate (C) to make a s'more. If I get more of each item then I can make more s'mores and consequently having minimum amounts results in less s'mores that I make.

23. Not possible, due to law of conservation of matter and energy. Atoms cannot be created nor be destroyed, they are simply rearranged. For eg, Taking A + B cannot give you a new compound with a chemical formula D or XZ. A + B can however give you AB which is rearrangement of the starting atoms.

24. Chemical equation is balanced when atoms on reactant side and atoms of product side are in equal counts. I have attached a graphic below for more help.

A dilute solution of bromine in carbon tetrachloride behaves as an ideal-dilute solution. The vapour pressure of pure CCl4 is 33
ANEK [815]

Explanation:

The given data is as follows.

     Vapour pressure of pure CCl_{4} = 33.85 Torr

         Temperature = 298 K

      Mole fraction of Br_{2} = 122.36 torr

Therefore, calculate the vapor pressure of Br_{2} as follows.      

     Vapour pressure of Br_{2} = mole fraction of Br_{2} x K of Br_{2}

                                    = 0.050 x 122.36 Torr

                                   = 6.118 Torr

So, vapor pressure of Br_{2} is 6.118 Torr .

Now, calculate the vapor pressure of carbon tetrachloride as follows.

     Vapour pressure of CCl_{4} = mole fraction of CCl_{4} x Pressure of CCl_{4}

                                     = (1 - 0.050) × 33.85 Torr

                                     = 32.1575 Torr

So, vapor pressure of CCl_{4} is 32.1575 Torr  .

Hence, the total pressure will be as follows.

                         = 6.118 Torr + 32.1575 Torr

                         = 38.2755 Torr

Therefore, composition of CCl_{4} = \frac{32.1575 Torr}{38.2755 Torr}

                         = 0.8405

Composition of CCl_{4} is 0.8405 .

And, composition of Br_{2} = \frac{6.118 Torr}{38.2755 Torr}

                                                  = 0.1598

Composition of Br_{2} is 0.1598 .

The coefficient of performance (cop) of a refrigerator is defined as the ratio of?
Vinvika [58]

The coefficient of performance (cop) of a refrigerator is defined as the ratio of " the work necessary to heat or cool something usefully."

The usable heating or cooling delivered to work required ratio, also known as the coefficient of performance, or COP, of a heat pump, refrigerator, as well as air conditioning system. Higher efficiency, less energy (power) usage, and thus reduced operational costs are all related to higher COPs.

Coefficient of performance formula:

K = Q_{H} / W_{in}

where, K = Coefficient of performance, Q_{H} = heat of pumps output, W_{in} = work required by the system.

It is refrigeration's coefficient of performance (COP) will always be greater than 1.

Therefore, the coefficient of performance (cop) of a refrigerator is defined as the ratio of " the work necessary to heat or cool something usefully."
