1. Magnesium atoms also have a slightly smaller radius than sodium atoms, and so the delocalised electrons are closer to the nuclei.
2. Sodium has higher melting point than potassium because of stronger metallic bonding .
3. Potassium are very soft metal can be very easily cut with a knife
4. Increase of resistance in metals. Therefore the mobility of electrons decreases and causes decrease in conductivity.
5.To increase strength, increase corrosion resistance, or reduce costs.
6. All metals have low ionization energies and are relatively electropositive, and so they lose electrons fairly easily.
7. All the group 1 metals are reactive, but they get more reactive as you go down the group, so potassium is more reactive than sodium.
Answer:
Group 18, also known as the Noble Gasses
Explanation:
Atoms strive for full stability by gaining or losing electrons to get 8 valence electrons in their valence shell, but Group 18 already has 8 electrons in their valence shell, and are therefore already stable in their ground state.
Answer:
Newton's Cradle is a neat way to demonstrate the principle of the CONSERVATION OF MOMENTUM.
What happens here is when the ball on one end of the cradle is swung and it hits the other balls that are motionless, or stationary, the momentum of the swinging ball is transferred to the next ball upon impact.
Momentum is not lost in this action, what happens when it hits the next ball, the momentum is transferred to the next one, and then the next, and the the next, till it reaches the last ball on the other end. Since nothing is next to the last ball, it pushes the ball upwards, which will swing down and repeat the process going the other way.
This also demonstrates the CONSERVATION OF ENERGY. As you will see, the energy continues to move through the other balls, passing it from one ball to the other, which keeps this constantly moving.
Answer:
6L
Explanation:
<em>if it's 3L per 200kPa</em>
then it would be;
4L per 300kPa
5L per 400kPa
6L per 500kPa
that's how i'd work it out in my head, hope it helps, but not sure though!
I am pretty sure the answer is 1.5*10^25
