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

Calculate delta g for the reaction if the partial pressures of the initial mixture are pcl5 = .0029 atm, pcl3 = .27 atm, and pcl
AnnyKZ [126]

Answer: equation for the reaction is given below

PCL2+PCL3=PCL5

Where pcl2=0.40atm,pcl3=0.27atm

Pcl5=0.0029atm

Using ∆G=-RTin(PCL5/PCl2*PCL3)

Where R=8.314J/K/mol and T=298K

∆G=-8.314*298in(0.0029/0.40*.27)

∆G=8962.6J/mol

Hang two sheets of paper vertically from adjacent corners. The sheets should be parallel and close to each other with a small ga
Mrrafil [7]

Answer:

a. The sheets move toward each other and the gap narrows.

Explanation:

This exercise is related to fluid mechanics, when blowing between the two sheets, we can apply Bernoulli's equation, where the index 2 is the space between the two sheets

       P₁ + ½ ρ g v₁² + ρ g y₁ = P₂ + ½ ρ g v₂² + ρ g y²

if the two leaves are at the same height

                      y₁ = y₂

 whereby

         P₁ + ½ ρ g v₁² = P₂ + ½ ρ v₂²

for the air velocity between the leaves let us use the continuity equation

        A₁ v₁ = A₂ v₂

the area between the leaves is less than the external area, so the air speed must increase. If we use this in Bernoulli's equation, increasing the speed 2 (between the leaves) to maintain equality the pressure must decrease.

If the pressure decreases, the blades should move closer

When resisting the answers, the correct one is  a

Which quantities define momentum?
grigory [225]

Answer:

A. How much matter an object has, plus the magnitude and direction  of its motion

Explanation:

Momentum is defined as the product of mass by velocity, in the international system of measurements (SI) momentum has the following Units [kg*m/s].

P = m*v

where:

P = momentum Lineal [kg*m/s]

m = mass [kg]

v = velocity [m/s]

Therefore the answer is A) How much matter an object has, plus the magnitude and direction  of its motion
