Answer:

B. K+ has 18 electrons

Explanation:

  • Ions are formed when atoms of element gain or loose electrons.
  • <em><u>When an atom looses electrons it forms a positively charged ion and when an atom gains electrons it forms a negatively charged ion.</u></em>
  • Metal atoms such as potassium, magnesium and aluminium looses outer most electrons to positively charged ions.
  • <u>Potassium atom has 19 electrons, 19 protons, with an electronic configuration of 2 : 8 : 8 : 1.</u> <u><em>To form an ion, K looses an electron to form a positively charged potassium ion (K+) with 18 electrons and 19 protons and an electronic configuration of 2:8:8.</em></u>

Which dosage form is a semisolid preparation that contains very small solid particles that are suspended in a liquid
ivolga24 [154]

A GEL is a semisolid preparation that contains very small solid particles that are suspended in a liquid. A gel always contains an agent (e.g., agarose) that provides stiffness to the preparation.

A gel is a semisolid preparation that contains a gelling agent which provides stiffness to the preparation.

The gelling agent can be, for example, agarose (this gelling agent is used to prepare gels in electrophoresis).

In an agarose gel, agarose molecules are organized into three-dimensional (3D) structures similar to pores, which allow the passage of DNA fragments during electrophoresis.

In which species does phosphorous have the highest oxidation number?
nignag [31]

the compounds in which phosphorous posses the highest possible oxidation have to mention here.

The species in which phosphorous have the highest oxidation state are: H₃PO₄, P₂O₅, PCl₅

The possible oxidation state of phosphorous is III and V. The highest oxidation state is V. There are several compounds in which phosphorous posses the +5 oxidation state. Like- Phosphoric acid (H₃PO₄), phosphorous pentoxide (P₂O₅), Phosphorous chloride (PCl₅) etc.

The oxidation state of an element depends upon the valence electron the valence shell of phosphorous is 3s² 3p³. Thus there are 5 electrons, as it has vacant 3d orbital thus it can easily form compound having +5 oxidation state.
