Why potasium more reactive than lithium and sodium

Chemistry

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.

Predict, using Boyle’s Law, what will happen to a balloon that an ocean diver takes to a pressure of 202 kPa (normal atmospheric
kaheart [24]

Explanation:

Balloon that an ocean diver takes to a pressure of 202 k Pa will get reduced in size that is the volume of the balloon will get reduced. This is because pressure and volume of the gas are inversely related to each other.

According to Boyle's law: The pressure of the gas  is inversely proportional to the volume occupied by the gas at constant temperature(in Kelvins).

pressure\propto \frac{1}{volume} (At constant temperature)

The pressure beneath the sea is 202 kPa and the atmospheric pressure  is 101.3 kPa . This increase in pressure will result in decrease in volume occupied by the gas inside the balloon with decrease in size of a balloon. Hence, the size of the balloon will get reduced at 202 kPa (under sea).

From goal line to goal line, a football field is 300 ft long. If a player catches the ball while standing on one goal line, runs
KATRIN_1 [288]

Answer:

The player ran 91.44m.

Explanation:

The problem gives you the total distance between goal line to goal line in feet, and the answer must be given in meters, so you should convert the distance the player run from ft to m, because the player run the same distance from goal line to goal line to scores the touchdown.

So, you should apply the following conversion factor:

300ft*\frac{0.3048m}{1ft}= 91.44m

The player ran 91.44m.

What is chemsity and what does it have to do with science
MatroZZZ [7]
Chemistry is the study of the composition of matter and the ways in which matter interacts, combines, and changes under certain conditions.  Although not as fundamental as physics, chemistry is a very basic and broad science.  It helps us explain bodily interactions and natural process (biochemistry), it helps us to manufacture new medications, and true chemistry research will always follow the scientific method.

makkiz [27]
0.216g of aluminium compound X  react with an excess of water water to produce gas. this gas burn completely  in O2  to form H2O and 108cm^3of CO2 only . the volume of CO2 was measured at room temperature and pressure

0.108 / n  =  24 / 1 
n = 0.0045 mole ( CO2 >>0.0045 mole 
0.216 - 0.0045 = 0.2115
so Al =   0.2115 / 27  =>  0.0078 mole 
C = 0.0045 * 1000 => 4.5    and Al  = 0.0078 * 1000 = 7.8
