What charge will a potassium ion form?

Chemistry
1 answer:
miskamm [114]3 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.

The painkiller, Advil® contains the active ingredient ibuprofen (IB), which has a pKb of
denis23 [38]

This problem is providing the basic dissociation constant of ibuprofen (IB) as 5.20, its pH as 8.20 and is requiring the equilibrium concentration of the aforementioned drug by giving the chemical equation at equilibrium it takes place. The obtained result turned out to be D) 4.0 × 10−7 M, according to the following work:

First of all, we set up an equilibrium expression for the given chemical equation at equilibrium, in which water is omitted for it is liquid and just aqueous species are allowed to be included:

Kb=\frac{[IBH^+][OH^-]}{[IB]}

Next, we calculate the concentration of hydroxide ions and the Kb due to the fact that both the pH and pKb were given:

pOH=14-8.20=5.80

[OH^-]=10^{-5.8}=1.585x10^{-6}M

Kb=10^{-5.20}=6.31x10^{-6}

Then, since the concentration of these ions equal that of the conjugated acid of the ibuprofen (IBH⁺), we can plug in these and the Kb to obtain:

6.31x10^{-6}=\frac{(1.585x10^{-6})(1.585x10^{-6})}{[IB]}

Finally, we solve for the equilibrium concentration of ibuprofen:

[IB]=\frac{(1.585x10^{-6})(1.585x10^{-6})}{6.31x10^{-6}}=4.0x10^{-7}

A sample of a substance has a mass of 27.3 grams and a volume of 7.0 centimeters3. The density of this substance is
lora16 [44]

Answer:

The density of the substance is 3.9 grams per cubic centimeter.

Explanation:

Given mass=27.3 grams

volume=7 cubic centimeter

We need to find the density.

Density of a substance can be calculated by dividing mass of substance by volume of a substance  

Density\ =\ \frac{mass}{volume}

\\Therefore\ density\ =\ \frac{27.3}{7} \ =\ 3.9\ \frac{gm}{cm^3}

Hence Density of the substance is 3.9gm/cm^3.

a sealed container filled with argon gas at 35 c has a pressure of 832 torr. if the volume of the container is decreased by a fa
lesya692 [45]

Answer:

If the volume of the container is decreased by a factor of 2 the pressure is is increased by the same factor to 1664 torr.

Explanation:

Here we have Boyle's law which states that, at constant temperature, the volume of a given mass of gas is inversely proportional to its pressure

V ∝ 1/P or V₁·P₁ = V₂·P₂

Where:

V₁ = Initial volume

V₂ = Final volume = V₁/2

P₁ = Initial pressure = 832 torr

P₂ = Final pressure  = Required

From V₁·P₁ = V₂·P₂ we have,

P₂ = V₁·P₁/V₂ = V₁·P₁/(V₁/2)

P₂  = 2·V₁·P₁/V₁ = 2·P₁ = 2× 832 torr = 1664 torr

Ascorbic acid, or vitamin C (C6H8O6, molar mass = 176 g/mol), is a naturally occurring organic compound with antioxidant propert
nydimaria [60]

Answer : 50.69 mg of ascorbic acid does not meet the daily requirement.

Solution : Given,

Molar mass of Ascorbic acid = 176 g/mole

Moles of Ascorbic acid = 2.88\times 10^{-4}moles

Formula used :

Moles=\frac{Mass}{\text{ Molar mass}}

or, \text{ Mass of ascorbic acid}=\text{ Moles of ascorbic acid}\times \text{ Molar mass of ascorbic acid}

Now put all the given values in this formula, we get the mass of ascorbic acid.

\text{ Mass of ascorbic acid}=(2.88\times 10^{-4}moles)\times (176g/mole)=0.050688g=50.69mg

Conversion : (1g=1000mg)

As per question, a healthy adult’s daily requirement of vitamin C is 70-90 mg. But calculate mass of vitamin C is 50.69 mg. So, 50.69 mg of ascorbic acid does not meet the daily requirement.

Which is not a reason why mass of an atom is expressed in atomic mass units rather than in grams?
Tasya [4]
What are your answer choices? Scientists express the weight in AMU’s so that they can easily think about the weight of the atom. If it is expressed in grams, they’re constantly dealing with a weight that’s around 10^-24 grams, which is hard to deal with.
