explain using diagrams how potassium forms the compound potassium flouride when it reacts with flourine
1 answer:
Answer:
The answer to your question is given below.
Explanation:
Potassium (K) has 19 electrons with electronic configuration of 2, 8, 8, 1.
Fluorine (F) has 9 electrons with electronic configuration of 2, 7.
Fluorine needs 1 electron to complete it's octet configuration.
Hence, potassium (K), will lose 1 electron to fluorine (F) to form potassium ion (K+) with electronic configuration of 2, 8, 8. The fluorine atom (F) will receive the 1 electron from potassium to form the fluoride ion (F-) with electronic configuration of 2, 8.

Answer:
According to Le-chatelier principle, equilibrium will shift towards left to minimize concentration of and keep same equilibrium constant
Explanation:
In this buffer following equilibrium exists -
So, is involved in the above equilibrium.
When a strong base is added to this buffer, then concentration of increases. Hence, according to Le-chatelier principle, above equilibrium will shift towards left to minimize concentration of
and keep same equilibrium constant.
Therefore excess amount of combines with
to produce ammonia and water. So, effect of addition of strong base on pH of buffer gets minimized.
