Choose the correct abbreviation of potassium (K) written in its noble gas configuration

Chemistry
1 answer:
Dmitry [639]3 years ago
5 0

Answer: [Ar]4s1

Explanation: Potassium (K) is an element with atomic number 19, thus it contains 19 electrons. It is  a metal which readily loses its electrons to acquire stable configuration of Argon (Ar) which has 18 electrons with completely filled subshells.

Ar:18:1s^22s^22p^63s^23p^63d^{10}

K:19:[Ar]4s^1

Imagine you leave a bottle of something toxic to humans open overnight in a sealed laboratory.
IgorC [24]

Answer:

Argument: It is not Safe

Further support to the argument is given below.

Explanation:

Solution:

Argument: It is not Safe

First of all, we all know the ideal gas law:

PV = nRT

And the Boyle's Law states that , if the pressure is increased then, volume will decrease. and if the volume is increased then pressure will decrease.

V is inversely proportional to Pressure of the gas.

So, in this case, Let's suppose we have toxic solution of methyl alcohol in the bottle which is tightly closed. It means pressure in the bottle is high, hence the volume is less.

If in this scenario someone, leave the bottle open in the laboratory and as it is given that the level of solution will drastically decrease. It means it is volatile in nature and is converted into gaseous form and we know now that the open bottle has now less pressure. Hence the volume of the gas will be higher and now it can spread to every corner of the laboratory. And it is very dangerous.

Dominik [7]

Answer:

A voltaic cell

Explanation:

A voltaic cell is a device which converts chemical energy to electrical energy. The chemical reactions that take place inside the cell causes electrons to flow from anode to cathode hence, electricity is produced. A simple voltaic cell is made by placing two different metals in contact with an electrolyte separated by a salt bridge. The cathode is the negative electrode while the anode is the positive electrode. It is also called a galvanic cell.

In a voltaic cell having a copper/copper solution half cell, reduction occurs at the cathode. Hence, at the cathode copper II ions accept two electrons and become reduced to ordinary metallic copper. This causes the blue colour of the solution to become discharged (fade) as the cell continues to function.
