B. reproduction doesn’t require mate
Answer and explanation:
Initially, the pH of the solution will be determined by the dissociation of the weak acid.
Usually, this kind of solution consists of a mixture of weak acid that has not yet reacted and the salt that will be formed by the reaction of the weak acid with a strong base that has been added.
After the dissociation process, the pH will be more affected due to the excess of base in the solution.
Answer:
Group 17/VIIA
Highly reactive
7 electrons in their outer shell
They become stable and have noble gas configurations when they gain one more electron from metal
Explanation:
halogen, any of the six nonmetallic elements that constitute Group 17 (Group VIIa) of the periodic table. The halogen elements are fluorine (F), chlorine (Cl), bromine (Br), iodine (I), astatine (At), and tennessine (Ts).
Due to their high effective nuclear charge, halogens are highly electronegative. Therefore, they are highly reactive and can gain an electron through reaction with other elements.
Halogens are very reactive because they have seven valence electrons and need one more to have eight valence electrons (an octet). They react with metals and other halogens to get an octet. When this happens, the atoms become stable and have noble gas configurations.
Answer:
D. It is extremely reactive.
Explanation:
Potassium has atomic number of 19 and belongs to the group 1 elements.
A. It is dull and brittle
This is not true as potassium is a metal with a silver lustre.
B. It is not reactive
This is false. Because it is a group 1 element, it would readily lose it's electron to achieve octet configuration making it a reactive metal.
C. It is white and hard.
Potassium is a white metal, however it is not hard. Rather it is soft.
D. It is extremely reactive.
This is correct. Because it is a group 1 element, it would readily lose it's electron to achieve octet configuration making it a reactive metal.
