When a potassium atom forms an ion, it loses one electron. What is the electrical charge of the potassium ion?

If a potassium atom loses one electron than it becomes a +1 charge, because the electrons are negative and the nucleus is positive (the positive comes from the protons). The protons and electrons balance out so it has a neutral charge, but if the atom loses an electrons it has a positive charge, but if the atom gains an electron than it becomes negative. the charge (+/- and the number) of the atom depends on how many electron the atom gains/loses. 
the answer is (D.) +1

I hope this helps.

A flask containing argon gas is connected to an closed-ended mercury manometer. The closed end is under vacuum. If the mercury l
iogann1982 [59]

Answer:

230 torr

Explanation:

Given that

P = 230 mm of Hg

If argon gas and mercury is in equilibrium position then the pressure on the both side will be same .

As we know that

1 torr = 1 mm of Hg

So the pressure of the argon will be 230 torr .

Unit conversion

1 torr = 1 mm of Hg

1 bar = 100 KPa = 10⁵ Pa =  10⁵ N/m² = 0.1 MPa = 0.1 x 10⁶ Pa

A 40.0-kg football player leaps through the air to collide with and tackle a 50.0-kg player heading toward him, also in the air.
lara31 [8.8K]

Answer:

The speed and direction of the tangled players is 2.89 m/s towards right.

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the player heading right, m₁ = 40 kg

initial velocity of the player heading right, u₁ = 9.0 m/s

mass of the player heading left, m₂ = 50 kg

initial velocity of the player heading left, u₂ = -2.0 m/s

let the speed of the tangled players = v

Apply the law of conservation of linear momentum;

m₁u₁ + m₂u₂ = v(m₁ + m₂)

(40 x 9) + (50 x - 2) = v(40 + 50)

360 - 100 = v(90)

260 = v(90)

v = 260 / 90

v = 2.89 m/s (towards right, since it is in position direction)

Therefore, the speed and direction of the tangled players is 2.89 m/s towards right.
