Answer:
% Ca = 24.69%
% H = 1.2%
% C = 14.8%
% O = 59.25%
Explanation:
The percentage by mass of each element can be calculated by dividing the mass of each element in the compound by the molar mass of the compound.
Molar mass of Ca(HCO3)2
Where; (Ca= 40, H = 1, O = 16, C= 12)
= 40 + {1 + 12 + 16(3)}2
= 40 + {13 + 48}2
= 40 + {61}2
= 40 + 122
= 162g/mol
- % mass of Ca = 40/162 × 100
= 0.2469 × 100
= 24.69%
- % mass of H = 2/162 × 100
= 0.012 × 100
= 1.2%
- % mass of C = 24/162 × 100
= 0.148 × 100
= 14.8%
- % mass of O = 96/162 × 100
= 0.5925 × 100
= 59.25%
Answer:
The answer to your question is given below.
Explanation:
Potassium (K) has 19 electrons with electronic configuration of 2, 8, 8, 1.
Fluorine (F) has 9 electrons with electronic configuration of 2, 7.
Fluorine needs 1 electron to complete it's octet configuration.
Hence, potassium (K), will lose 1 electron to fluorine (F) to form potassium ion (K+) with electronic configuration of 2, 8, 8. The fluorine atom (F) will receive the 1 electron from potassium to form the fluoride ion (F-) with electronic configuration of 2, 8.

The accuracy is associated with magnitude of fractional error or relative error in that measurement
the precision of a measurement is associated with least count of the measuring instrument.
precision does not mean accuracy but both are highly demanded while making measurements in physics.
The arrangement in space and the interatomic distances and angles of the atoms in crystals, usually determined by x-ray diffraction measurements
