3 valence electrons are transferred in the formation of the compound potassium nitride because nitrogen needs 3 valence electron to become stable, or to have the electron configuration of noble Gases.

Nitrogen requires 3 electrons to have a total of 8 valence electrons.Each potassium atom will transfer one electron.A total of 3 potassium atoms and one nitrogen atom will be involved  in the  formation of a formula unit of potassium nitride.

Design an experiment to collect data that supports the claim that a 1.0M NaCl solution is a homogenous mixture.
Alika [10]
The claim is that NaCl mixture is a homogeneous mixture.
Homogeneous mixture means that the components of the mixtures cannot be determined or separated by the naked eye. However, these components can be separated using physical means, such as boiling, evaporation and condensation which will be used in this experiment.

First, we need to prepare one molar solution of NaCl. To do so, we will dilute a mass of 58.44 grams (molar mass of NaCl) in 1 liter of water.
By this, we will have NaCl solution.

We can notice that once the NaCl is diluted in water, all what you can see is a clear solution. You cannot see the separate particles of NaCl in water.
..............> observation I

Now, we will heat this solution until it boils and water starts evaporating. We will place a cold surface above the steam coming out from the boiling solution.

What we will observe is that when all the water evaporates, we can see white precipitate of NaCl in the bottom of the container. Examining the cold surface placed above the steam, we can see that the water has condensed on this surface.
.........>observation II

Based on this, we managed to use boiling, evaporation and condensation (physical methods) to restore the components of the solution separately.
.............>conclusion

Based on observation I, observation II and the conclusion. we were able to prove that NaCl solution is a homogeneous mixture.

Why are the oxidation and reduction half-reactions separated in an<br> electrochemical cell?
Aleksandr [31]

Answer:

<h2>It makes the current viable enough to pass through an exterior wire.</h2>

Explanation:

Electrochemical cells primarily comprise of two half-cells. These half-cells assist in isolating the oxidation and reduction half-reactions. These two reactions are linked by a wire which allows the current to move from one edge to the other. The oxidation at the anode and the reduction take place at the cathode and the addition of a salt bridge helps in completing the circuit and permits the current to flow and leads to the generation of electricity.

A certain gas is present in a 10.0 LL cylinder at 4.0 atmatm pressure. If the pressure is increased to 8.0 atmatm the volume of
ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer:

The gas obeys Boyle’s law and the value of k_i\&k_f both are equal to 40.0 atm L.

Explanation:

Initial volume of the gas = V_1=10.0 L

Initial pressure of the gas = P_1=4.0 atm

Final volume of the gas = V_2=5.0 L

Final pressure of the gas = P_2=8.0 atm

This law states that pressure is inversely proportional to the volume of the gas at constant temperature.  

PV=k

The equation given by this law is:

P_1V_1=P_2V_2

P_1\propto \frac{1}{V_1}

P_1V_1=k_i

k_i=4.0 atm\times 10.0 L = 40.0 atm L

P_2\propto \frac{1}{V_2}

P_V_2=k_f

k_f=8.0 atm\times 5.0 L = 40.0 atm L

k_i=k_f=40.0 atm L

The gas in the cylinder is obeying Boyle's law.

The gas obeys Boyle’s law and the value of k_i\&k_f both are equal to 40.0 atm L.
