Why potasium more reactive than lithium and sodium

Chemistry
1 answer:
frez [133]3 years ago
5 0
So potassium is more reactive than lithium because the outer electron of a potassium atom is further from its nucleus than the outer electron of a lithium atom. Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day. Feel free to ask more questions.

How many electrons can be described by the quantum numbers n = 3, l = 3, ml = 1?
Oksana_A [137]

There are a total of four quantum numbers that govern the electrons. These are the principal quantum number (n), the angular quantum number (l), the magnetic quantum number (ml) and lastly the spin quantum number (ms). Each electron has a unit set of the four quantum numbers.

Since the first 3 quantum numbers is already specified, so the remaining to be filled is the ms quantum number which can only have values of +1/2 and -1/2. So we have 2 electrons.

 

Answer:

<span>2 electrons</span>

Ugo [173]

Answer - Inter-molecular attractions

Explanation-

As we know everything around us is made up of matter that means everything has molecules as their basic structure. The state of anything is decided by the spaces between the molecules.

The state of the objects that have strong inter-molecular attractions a solid and gradually the lesser will be in state of liquid and gas. The attraction between the molecules is overcome only when a certain amount of energy is provided from outside.
