Potassium is not found free in nature but is found in the form of potash. Potash is the ore of potassium and this ore is mined from deep down the earth or can sometimes be found on the surface. Potash was mostly formed as sea water receded and left deposits.
Potash is usually in the form of potassium salts such potassium chloride and potassium sulphate. The potash is mined then taken to the factory where it is crushed and purified by removing such impurities as clay.
The now purified potassium salts are subjected to a process called electrolysis where potassium metal is obtained from its salt.
Answer:
because iron is magnetic and sand is not
Explanation:
Answer: 40 grams
Explanation:
The quantity of Heat Energy (Q) required to heat a substance depends on its Mass (M), specific heat capacity (C) and change in temperature (Φ)
Thus, Q = MCΦ
Since Q = 93.4J
M = ?
C = 0.129 J/g.C
Φ = 40.4°C - 22.3°C = 18.1°C
Then, Q = MCΦ
Make Mass, M the subject formula
M = Q/CΦ
M = (93.4J) / (0.129 J/g.C x 18.1°C)
M = 93.4J / 2.33J/g
M = 40 g
Thus, the mass of the lead is 40 grams
<em><u>Question</u></em>

<em><u>To find out best possible solution for a given problem within the given constraint is generally termed as optimization</u></em>
<em><u>How </u></em><em><u>are </u></em><em><u>solution</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>optimize</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>?</u></em>
<em><u>To solve an optimization problem, begin by drawing a picture and introducing variables. Find an equation relating the variables. Find a function of one variable to describe the quantity that is to be minimized or maximized. Look for critical points to locate local extrema.</u></em>
Answer:- Frequency is 
.
Solution:- frequency and wavelength are inversely proportional to each other and the equation used is:
where, 
is frequency, c is speed of light and 
is the wavelength.
Speed of light is 
.
We need to convert the wavelength from nm to m.
( 
)
= 
Now, let's plug in the values in the equation to calculate the frequency:
= 
or
since, 
So, the frequency of the green light photon is .
