Answer:

0.677 moles

Explanation:

Take the atomic mass of K = 39.1, O =16.0, P = 31.0

no. of moles = mass / molar mass

no. of moles of K3PO4 used = 4.79 / (39.1x3 + 31 + 16x4)

= 0.02256 mol

From the equation, the mole ratio of KOH : K3PO4 = 3 :1,

meaning every 3 moles of KOH used, produces 1 mole of K3PO4.

So, using this ratio, let the no. of moles of KOH required to be y.

\frac{3}{1} =\frac{y}{0.02256} \\

y = 0.02256 x3

y = 0.0677 mol

If you don't find exactly 0.677 moles as one of the options, go for the closest one. A very slight error may occur because of taking different significant figures of atomic masses when calculating.

Mass has to do with how many particles
Ganezh [65]

The law of definite proportions agrees with Dalton atomic theory.

What is Dalton atomic theory?

It state that all matters is made of very tiny particles called atom. atoms are individual particles which can not be created or be destroyed in a chemical reactions. Atoms of given elements are identical in mass and chemical properties. Atoms of

different elements have different masses and chemical properties.

The law of definite proportions also known as proust's law ,state that a chemical compound contain the same proportion of elements by mass.this law is one of the stoichiometry .

Thus ,

This is the reason why it is agrees with dalton atomic theory.

There are three competing factors at play here: 1. The effective nuclear charge 2. The size of the atom and the force of attract
alexandr402 [8]

Answer:

These three factors are required for ionization potential or ionization energy.

Explanation:

Ionization potential refers to the amount of energy which is required for the removal of outermost electron of the atom. If the atom size is big so the outermost electron is far from the nucleus and low energy is required for its removal due to lower force of attraction between nucleus and outermost electron. If the nuclear charge is higher, so the electron is tightly held by the nucleus and require more energy for its removal. Nuclear charge means number of protons present in the nucleus.

Nataliya [291]
Helium is a light gas.  Movement can be predicted by which chamber has the lighter gas(es) and which chamber has the heavier.  constant changes can also be a variable.  If the gas is constant, then changes are more easily predicted.
