A low electronegativity
Explanation:
Potassium is a metal that is expected to have a very low electronegativity value.
Electronegativity is the relative tendency by which an atom attracts valence electrons in a chemical bond.
Potassium is an element in the first group on the periodic table.
The common trend is that electronegativity increases from left to right and decreases down a group.
- Potassium as metal will prefer to lose electrons rather than attracting because that will make it achieve the octet configuration that will ensure its stability.
- This is why it will have low electronegativity.

The activity of the sample when it was shipped from the manufacturer is 4.54 mCi
<h3>How to determine the number of half-lives that has elapsed </h3>
From the question given above, the following data were obtained:
- Time (t) = 48 hours
- Half-life (t½) = 14.28 days = 14.28 × 24 = 342.72 hours
- Number of half-lives (n) =?
n = t / t½
n = 48 / 342.72
n = 0.14
<h3>How to determine the activity of the sample during shipping </h3>
- Number of half-lives (n) = 0.14
- Original activity (N₀) = 5.0 mCi
- Activity remaining (N) =?
N = N₀ / 2ⁿ
N = 5 / 2^0.14
N = 4.54 mCi
Thus, the activity of the sample during shipping is 4.54 mCi

It Is Called The Parent Nuclide
Answer:
1x10^-8 M
Explanation:
Since the solution turns blue, it mean the solution is a base.
Now, to know which option is correct, we need to determine the pH of each solution. This is illustrated below:
1. Concentration of Hydrogen ion, [H+] = 1x10^-2 M
pH =..?
pH = - log [H+]
pH = - log 1x10^-2
pH = 2
2. Concentration of Hydrogen ion, [H+] = 5x10-2 M
pH =..?
pH = - log [H+]
pH = - log 5x10^-2
pH = 1.3
3. Concentration of Hydrogen ion, [H+] = 5x10 M
pH =..?
pH = - log [H+]
pH = - log 5x10
pH = - 1.7
4. Concentration of Hydrogen ion, [H+] = 1x10-8 M
pH =..?
pH = - log [H+]
pH = - log 1x10^-8
pH = 8
A pH reading shows if the solution is acidic or basic. A pH reading between 0 and 6 indicates an acidic solution, a pH reading of 7 indicates a neutral solution while a pH reading between 8 and 14 indicates a basic solution.
From the above calculations, the pH reading indicates a basic solution when the hydrogen ion concentration was 1x10^-8 M.
Answer:
Tough outer shell
Explanation:
Three types of space suits based on their purpose are IVA (Intravehicular activity), EVA (extravehicular activity), and IEVA (intra/extravehicular activity)
Space suits have an outer layer known as the Integrated Thermal Micrometeoroid Garment also known as the TMG or ITMG
The functions of the TMG includes the provision of an insulation medium to the wearer of the suit thereby preventing loss of heat and keeping the wearer warm, protect the wearer from solar radiation which are harmful as well as from Micrometeoroid and debris orbiting in space known as MMOD
The outermost layer of the EMU TMG suits is white Ortho-Fabric that consists of Nomex, Kevlar and Gore-Tex, making it fire resistant, very strong and very tough, and water proof as well as breathable.
