What charge will a potassium ion form?

Chemistry
1 answer:
miskamm [114]4 years ago
6 0

Answer:Potassium

Explanation:

Magnesium is in the second column and therefore has 2 electrons in its outermost shell. It would tend to lose two electrons and form a +2 ion. Potassium is in the first column and therefore has 1 electron in its outermost shell. It would tend to lose one electron and form a +1 ion.

kolezko [41]

Answer:

Cl2(g) (green/yellow mix) + 2KBr(s) (white) ---> 2KCl(s) (violet) + Br2(g) (reddish brown)

This chemical reaction is a redox type.

Explanation:

Look at the oxidation state, when the number increase your element gets oxidated, when the number decrease, the elements it's getting reduced.

When water is heated, bubbles form in the water. Is this evidence of a chemical reaction? Why?
Paul [167]

Answer: Option (b) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

A change that does not lead to any difference in chemical composition of a substance is known as a physical change.

For example, shape, size, mass, volume, density, boiling point, etc of a substance are all physical properties.

Boiling of water is a physical change as it leads to conversion of liquid state of water into vapor state.

On the other hand, changes that lead to bring change in chemical composition of a substance is known as a chemical change.

For example, exploding dynamite, rotting cheese etc are all chemical changes.

Thus, we can conclude that the statement no, boiling water is a physical change is true when water is heated, bubbles form in the water. This evidence is not of a chemical reaction.

How many molecules does 88 grams CO2 contain? A) 1.2 X 1024 B) 1.8 X 1024 C) 3.0 X 1023 D) 6.0 X 1023
mylen [45]

Hey there!:

Molar mass CO2 = 44.01 g/mol

44.01 g CO2 ------------------- 6.02*10²² molecules CO2

88 g CO2 ------------------------ y

y = 88 * ( 6.02*10²² ) / 44.01

y = 5.29*10²⁵ / 44.01

y = 1.2 * 10²⁴ molecules of CO2

Answer A


Hope that helps!

Solution of the Schrodinger Wave Equation for the hydrogen atom results in a set of functions (orbitals) that describe the behav
kenny6666 [7]

Answer:

n is the principal quantum number, it specifies the energy and average distance from the nucleus

l is the orbital quantum number, it specifies the subshell/orbital shape

ml is the magnetic quantum number and specifies the orbital orientation

Explanation:

The Schrödinger wave equation is solved for the hydrogen atom to yield three sets of quantum numbers.

The principal quantum number corresponds to the energy level in the Bohr model and also shows the average distance of the electron from the nucleus.

The orbital quantum number reveals the subshell where an electron is found as well as the shape of the orbital. E.g p-orbitals are dumbbell shaped.

The magnetic quantum number shows the orientation of an orbital in space. Its values range from -l to +l
