Common based on their location in Periodic Table;

Potassium has an atomic number 19. Its electronic configuration is as follow;

1s², 2s², 2p⁶, 3s², 3p⁶, 4s¹

And Krypton has an atomic number of 36. Its electronic configuration is as follow;

1s², 2s², 2p⁶, 3s², 3p⁶, 4s², 3d¹⁰, 4p⁶

It is concluded that both Potassium and Krypton has their valence electrons in 4rth shell or they have same Principle Quantum Number.

Difference based on their location in Periodic Table;

As observed in electronic configuration Potassium has one valence electron in its valence shell (i.e. 4s¹) while, Krypton has eight valence electrons in its valence shell (i.e. 4s², 4p⁶). Therefore, they are different in the number of valence electrons.

Can somebody help me with this also plz

just olya [345]

ANSWER:

4 a) Specific elements have more than one oxidation state, demonstrating variable valency.

For example, the following transition metals demonstrate varied valence states: $Fe^{2+}$ , $Fe^{3+}$ , $Cr^{2+}, Cr^{3+}$ , etc.

Normal metals such as $Pb^{2+} and Pb^{4+}$ also show variable valencies. Certain non-metals are also found to show more than one valence state $Pb^{3+} and Pb^{5+}.$

4 b) Isotopes are members of a family of an element that all have the same number of protons but different numbers of neutrons.

For example, Carbon-14 is a naturally occurring radioactive isotope of carbon, having six protons and eight neutrons in the nucleus. However, C-14 does not last forever and there will come a time when it loses its extra neutrons and becomes Carbon-12.

5 a) $2Fe + 3Cl_2$ → $2FeCl_3$

5 b) $3Pb + 8HNO_3$ → $3Pb (NO_3)_2 + 4H_2O + 2NO_2$

5 c) $Zn + H_2SO_4$ → $ZnSO_4 + H_2$ (already balanced so don't need to change)

5 d) $2H_2 + O_2$ → $2H_2O$

5 e) $2Mg + 2HCl$ → $2MgCl + H_2$

EXPLANATION (IF NEEDED):

1. Write out how many atoms of each element is on the left (reactant side) and right (product side) of the arrow.

2. Start multiplying each side accordingly to try to get atoms of the elements on both sides equal.

Potassium bromide conducts electricity when ______

amm1812

Answer:

When melted or dissolved in water.

Explanation:

Potassium bromide in its solid form contains ions, which are charged atoms. Through the heating process, the melted potassium bromide becomes an ionic liquid. If solid potassium bromide is dissolved, for example in water, the resulting release of ions allows it to conduct electricity.

which types of intermolecular forces are most likely to dominate between large molecules containing long chains of carbon atoms

Serga [27]

Van der waals force

Explanation:

The intermoleclular forces are attraction between molecules. Interatomic forces are attraction between atoms in a compound.

In most hydrocarbons the weak Van der waals attraction are known.

These forces are weak attraction joining non-polar and polar molecules together.
These forces can also be found in layers of graphite.
They are of two types;

London dispersion forces are attraction that exists between non-polar molecules and the noble gas.

Dipole - Dipole attractions are forces of attraction existing in polar molecules.

In hydrocarbons, we have non-polar molecules and intermolecular attraction is london dispersion forces.
