Which statement correctly describes potassium iodide, KI? There is a one-to-one ratio of potassium ions to iodide ions. Potassiu
elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

The answer is there is a one-to-one ratio of potassium ions to iodide ions.

Explanation :

- (K) belongs to Alkali metals in group (1A) that contains (1) electron in the outermost energy level, whereas, (I) is from halogens in group (7A) that contains (7) electron in the outermost energy level.

- To achieve stability, both atoms tend to reach the nearest noble state (outermost level occupies 8 electrons). Therefore, (K) loses its outer electron and gives it to (I) which now has a completely filled outer level and an ionic bond is formed between the two.

- The valency (number of electrons lost, gained or shared) of both atoms is equal ”monovalent” which means one-to-one ratio..

A solid piece of lead has a mass of 23.94g and a volume of 2.10cm^3. from these data, calculate the density of lead in si units
jeyben [28]
A density of a substance is constant. It is an extensive property, meaning it does not depend on the amount of substance because it is a ratio of mass to volume. No matter how much of each there is, they would always have a fixed ratio called density. For lead, the density is

Density = mass/volume
Density = 23.94 g/ 2.10 cm³
Density = 11.4 g/cm³

Select the correct answer from each drop-down menu. At chemical equilibrium, the amount of because .
Elena-2011 [213]

Answer:

The answer that completes the question are in BOLD:

At chemical equilibrium, the amount of PRODUCT AND REACTANT REMAIN CONSTANT because the RATES OF THE FORWARD AND REVERSE REACTIONS ARE EQUAL.

Explanation:

In a reversible chemical reaction, an equilibrium is said to be achieved when the rates of the forward reaction is equal to that of the reverse reaction. A reversible reaction is one in which products are formed from reactants simultaneously with the formation of reactants from products.

The combination of two or more substances called REACTANTS gives rise to another substance called PRODUCT, which can in turn give rise to Reactants again. With time, the rate at which the reactants give rise the products, which is called the FORWARD REACTION will be equal to the rate at which the products give rise to the reactants, which is called REVERSE REACTION. At this point, the chemical reaction is said to be in a STATE OF EQUILIBRIUM.

When the rate at which both reaction occurs becomes equal i.e. at an equilibrium state, the concentration of both the reactants and the products becomes constant i.e. no longer changes. Hence, the amount of the reactants forming the products is the same as the amount of products forming the reactants.

N.B: At chemical equilibrium, the amount of the reactants and products does not necessarily equals zero (0). It simply means that there is no net change in the concentration/amount of both reactants and products.
