The chemical equation that you need is:

2KF(s)\ \to\ 2K(s) + F_2(g)
Novay_Z [31]3 years ago
5 0

Explanation:

An equation will be balanced when there are equal number of atoms on both reactant and product side.

And a reaction in which a compound dissociates to give two products is known as a decomposition reaction.

For example, 2KF(s) \rightarrow 2K(s) + F_{2}(g)

This reaction equation represents decomposition of solid potassium fluoride into solid potassium and fluorine gas. Also, there are equal number of atoms on both reactant and product side so, the equation is balanced.

If a 32.5 mL of a 15.1 M HCl solution was diluted to 3.25 L with water, what is the final concentration?
user100 [1]

Answer:

The final concentration is 0,151 M.

Explanation:

A dilution consists of the decrease of concentration of a substance in a solution (the higher the volume of the solvent, the lower the concentration).

We convert the unit of volume in L into ml: 3,25 x 1000= 3250 ml

We use the formula for dilutions:

C1 x V1 = C2 x V2

C2= (C1 xV1)/V2

C2= (32, 5 ml x 15, 1 M)/ 3250 ml

<em>C2=0,151 M</em>

A persistent or nonvolatile chemical agent can: Select one: a. explode without warning and releases gases. b. remain in the envi
avanturin [10]

Answer: A persistent or non-volatile chemical agent can remain on a surface for more than 24 hours.

Explanation:

Non-volatile substance is defined as the one which does not readily evaporate into its surrounding. Generally, a non-volatile substance has strong intermolecular forces between its molecules.

A non-volatile substance will take more than 24 hours to remain on the surface.

On the other hand, a substance with weak intermolecular forces present in its molecules will readily evaporate into the atmosphere.

For example, acetic acid is a volatile substance and quickly evaporates into the atmosphere.

Thus, we can conclude that a persistent or non-volatile chemical agent can remain on a surface for more than 24 hours.

Which set of characteristics accurately describes the physical properties of electrons in atoms
zloy xaker [14]

Answer: Option (A) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

When there occurs no change in the chemical composition of a substance then it is known as physical property.

For example, mass, volume, density are all physical properties.

Since, the mass of an electron is negligible and an electron holds a negative charge.

Therefore, negatively charged particle with very little mass accurately describes the physical properties of electrons in atoms.
