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.

Draw a line-bond structure for CBrN. Explicitly draw all H atoms. You do not have to include lone pairs in your answer. In cases
DochEvi [55]

Answer:

Br - C ≡ N

Explanation:

To draw the Lewis line-bond structure we need to bear in mind the octet rule, which states that in order to gain stability each <em>atom tends to share electrons until it has 8 electrons in its valence shell</em>.

  • C has 4 e⁻ in its valence shell so it will form 4 covalent bonds.
  • Br has 7 e⁻ in its valence shell so it will form 1 covalent bond.
  • N has 5 e⁻ in its valence shell so it will form 3 covalent bonds.

The most stable structure that respects these premises is:

Br - C ≡ N

It does not have any H atom.

How many grams of gas must be released from a 32.0 L sample of CO2(g) at STP to reduce the volume to 16.6 L at STP?
Hoochie [10]

Answer:

30.3 g

Explanation:

At STP, 1 mol of any gas will occupy 22.4 L.

With the information above in mind, we <u>calculate how many moles are there in 32.0 L</u>:

  • 32.0 L ÷ 22.4 L/mol = 1.43 mol

Then we <u>calculate how many moles would there be in 16.6 L</u>:

  • 16.6 L ÷ 22.4 L/mol = 0.741 mol

The <u>difference in moles is</u>:

  • 1.43 mol - 0.741 mol = 0.689 mol

Finally we <u>convert 0.689 moles of CO₂ into grams</u>, using its <em>molar mass</em>:

  • 0.689 mol * 44 g/mol = 30.3 g
