Conversion of mole to grams
k in mole = 1 mole/ atomic mass
K in mole =1/ 39.0983 g/mole
= 0.255765 g/mole
converting 40 grams of K
K 40 grams x [ 1 mole/ 39.0983 grams] = 1.0230623 mole
There are 1.0230623 moles of K in 40 K of Potassium
A. The number of valence electrons increases as atomic mass increases. == Generally true for the representative elements since atomic mass generally increases with increasing Z.
B. The reactivity of alkali metals increases as atomic mass increases. == True. Atomic mass increases down the column and so does reactivity
C. The reactivity of the halogens increases as atomic mass increases. == False. Reactivity decreases down the column.
D. The number of valence electrons decreases across a period. == False. In general, the number of valence electrons increases across a period, particularly for the representative elements.
3A (also known as group 13) all the elements have 3 electrons in their outer most shell thats why theyll be divided into the ns2 and the np1
