At almost the opposite point on the Earth's surface, the "P" waves reappear. The shadow zone exists because the waves are refracted as they pass through the boundary between the mantle and the core and are diverted from their original paths.

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.
The answer to problem is [He] 2s1. Hope it helps
Answer:
Ka = ( [H₃O⁺] . [F⁻] ) / [HF]
Explanation:
HF is a weak acid which in water, keeps this equilibrium
HF (aq) + H₂O (l) ⇄ H₃O⁺ (aq) + F⁻ (aq) Ka
2H₂O (l) ⇄ H₃O⁺ (l) + OH⁻ (aq) Kw
HF is the weak acid
F⁻ is the conjugate stron base
Let's make the expression for K
K = ( [H₃O⁺] . [F⁻] ) / [HF] . [H₂O]
K . [H₂O] = ( [H₃O⁺] . [F⁻] ) / [HF]
K . [H₂O] = Ka
Ka, the acid dissociation constant, includes Kwater.
