larisa [96]2 years ago
8 0

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>

What is the mass of KOH found in a 785 mL of a 1.43 M solution of KOH
My name is Ann [436]

Molarity is defined as the ratio of number of moles to the volume of solution in litres.

The mathematical expression is given as:

Molarity = \frac{Number of moles}{volume of solution in litres}

Here, molarity is equal to 1.43 M and volume is equal to 785 mL.

Convert mL into L

As, 1 mL = 0.001 L

Thus, volume = 785\times 0.001 = 0.785 L

Rearrange the formula of molarity in terms of number of moles:

Number of moles =molarity\times volume of solution in litres

n = 1.43 M \times 0.785 L

= 1.12255 mole

Now,  Number of moles  = \frac{mass in g}{molar mass}

Molar mass of potassium hydroxide  = 56.10 g/mol

1.12255 mole  = \frac{mass in g}{56.10 g/mol}

mass in g = 1.12255 mole\times 56.10 g/mol

= 62.97 g

Hence, mass of KOH = 62.97 g

(C6H6) can be biodegraded by microorganism. if 30 mg of benzene is present, what amount of oxygen required for biodegradation, n
quester [9]

Answer:

36.92 mg of oxygen required for bio-degradation.

Explanation:

5C_6H_6+15O_2\rightarrow 12CO_2+15H_2O

Mass of benzene = 30 mg = 0.03 g (1000 mg = 1 g )

Moles benzene =\frac{0.03 g}{78 g/mol}=0.0003846 mol

According to reaction 5 moles of benzene reacts with 15 moles of oxygen gas.

Then 0.0003846 mol of benzene will react with:

\frac{15}{5}\times 0.0003846 mol=0.0011538 mol of oxygen gas

Mass of 0.0011538 moles of oxygen gas:

0.0011538 mol × 32 g/mol = 0.03692 g = 36.92 mg

36.92 mg of oxygen required for bio-degradation.

The lab just ran out of 1 M HCl that you need to complete the Benzillic Acid lab. The TA tells you there is 12 M HCl in the fume
Viktor [21]

Answer:

0.83 mL

Explanation:

Given data

  • Initial concentration (C₁): 12 M
  • Initial volume (V₁): ?
  • Final concentration (C₂): 1.0 M
  • Final volume (V₂): 10.0 mL

We can calculate the initial volume of HCl using the dilution rule.

C₁ × V₁ = C₂ × V₂

V₁ = C₂ × V₂ / C₁

V₁ = 1.0 M × 10.0 mL / 12 M

V₁ = 0.83 mL

The required volume of the initial solution is 0.83 mL.
