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.

Can the pH scale be utilized for all acids (Arrhenius, Bronsted-Lowry, and Lewis)? Give examples of substances from each definit
CaHeK987 [17]

Answer:

No

Explanation:

The pH scale is a scale graduated from 0-14 which shows the degree of acidity of alkalinity of a substance. The pH scale is graduated in such a way that 0-6.9 indicates acidity, 7.0 indicate a neutral substance, while a pH of 8-14 indicates alkalinity respectively.

There are three main definitions of acids/bases

- Arrhenius definition

-Brownstead-Lowry definition

-Lewis definition

Arrhenius explains acids as any substance that produces hydrogen ions as its only positive ion in solution while a base produces hydroxide ions as its only negative ion in solution. The pH scale is based on corresponding values of pH derived from aqueous solutions of these substances.

However, not all acids/bases produces hydrogen or hydroxide ions in solution. Brownstead-Lowry definition of acids and Lewis definition of acids could be extended to nonaqueous media where the pH can not be measured as there are no hydrogen or hydroxide ions present in the solution.

This implies that pH measurement may not apply to acids/bases in the all the categories of acids/bases hence it can not be utilized for all acids and bases.

Arrhenius - sodium carbonate

Brownstead-Lowry - concentrated HF

Lewis acid - AlCl3

What you think would happen if global warming caused a decrease in all clouds
marta [7]

Answer:

Global warming is expected to cause changes in the amount of cloud cover, and the height and thickness of these clouds in the future, shifting the balance between the parasol and blanket effects of clouds. The knock-on effect this will have on temperature is known as cloud feedback

What are inside of cars so hot when left in the sun
Naya [18.7K]

Answer:

metalllll/material

Explanation:

you know how dark shirts absorb the sun heat well its practically the same just with material.

"Why is the inside of a car so hot after sitting in the sun?

Cars warm up in the sun due to the greenhouse effect: Sunlight passing through the windows into the car is mostly absorbed by interior surfaces, then radiated back to the air as heat. ... “As a consequence, the inside of the car will warm because radiation is coming in but not much is going back out.”Jul 27, 2009

Curiosities: Does a dark-colored car heat up more in the sun than a ..."
