Answer:

an Additional shell

Explanation:

Potassium has an additional energy level when compared to sodium. This is due to an extra shell added. In the periodic table when you go down the group, the atomic radius increases due to increasing energy levels.

The atomic radius mean the distance from the center of the nucleus to the valance shell. it actually describes the size of the atom

Passing an electric current through a sample of water (H2O) can cause the water to decompose into hydrogen gas (H2) and oxygen g
Setler [38]
The balanced chemical reaction is:

<span>2H2O= 2H2 + O2
</span>
We are given the amount of oxygen to be produced in the reaction. The starting point for the calculations will be this amount.

50 g ( 1 mol O2 / 32 g O2 ) ( 2 mol H2O / 1 mol O2 ) ( 18.01 g H2O / 1 mol H2O) = 56.28 g of H2O is needed.

Therefore, the correct answer is the last option.

To qualify to run in the 2005 Boston Marathon, a distance of 26.2 miles, an 18-year-old woman had to have completed another mara
Elden [556K]
Speed is calculated using the formula distance divided by time. For a distance of 26.2 miles, and a time of 3 hours and 40 minutes, we first convert the time to make it solely in terms of hours. 40 minutes is 2/3 of an hour, so this is a total time of 3 2/3 or 11/3 hours. If we divide 26.2 miles by 11/3 hours, we get a resulting speed of 7.14 miles/hour.

a titration of 25.0mL of an x M hcl solution with 0.15M NaOH starts at a burette reading for NaOH of 0.20mL . Thr burette readin
VARVARA [1.3K]
Burette is a very accurate measuring instrument when adding solutions and has a measurement error of 0.05 mL. 
Small volumes of solutions can be transferred from the burette at a controllable rate. 
In this instance NaOH is in the burette.
Initial reading of NaOH is 0.20 mL 
end point is the point at which the chemical reaction reaches completion. In acid base reactions, end point is when all the H⁺ ions have reacted with OH⁻ ions. 
final reading of NaOH is 24.10 mL
to find the volume of NaOH dispensed we have to find the difference between final reading and initial reading 
volume of NaOH added = 24.10 mL - 0.20 mL = 23.90 mL
volume of NaOH dispensed is 23.90 mL

Why does secondary succession usually occur more rapidly than primary succession.
trapecia [35]
Secondary succession occurs more rapidly than primary because soil is already available so there is no need for any other species. Also, there might still be surviving species in the soil present like seeds, roots and other plant organs.
