Explain, in terms of electrons, why the radius of a potassium atom is larger than the radius of the potassium ion in the ground

state.

Evgesh-ka [11]3 years ago
5 0
Because the potassium atom has 19 electrons and there is four layers of electrons as 2, 8, 8, 1. And for potassium ion, there is 18 electrons. It has there layers of electrons as 2, 8, 8. So the radius of potassium atom is larger than potassium ion.

The bonds in the compound MgSO4 can be described asA. ionic, onlyB. covalent, onlyC. both ionic and covalentD. neither ionic nor
Galina-37 [17]
I believe the answer is C. The bonds in the compound magnesium sulfate is ionic and covalent. Magnesium sulfate is soluble in water. When the said compound is dissolved in water, it dissociates into magnesium ions and sulfate ions. However, the bonds that held together the sulfate ions is covalent.

Ice floats on water. For most other substances, however, the solid sinks in the liquid. Classify each of these statements based
sattari [20]

Answer:

1.High pressure will cause the liquid to become solid :

<u>Describe both water and other substances</u>

2.High pressure will cause the solid to become liquid <u>:</u>

<u>It describe none : neither water nor other substances </u>

<u>This statement is :False for both water and other substances</u>

3.The solid is more dense than the liquid :

It describe other substance

<u>This statement is :False for water but true for other substances.</u>

4. In a phase diagram, the solid-liquid coexistence line has a negative slope.

It describes water:

<u>This statement is :True for water because solid ice is less dense than liquid water.</u>

<u>False for other substance, they have positive slope</u>

5.The molecules are closest in the liquid phase.

<u>This statement is :False for water and other substances </u>

6.The solid is less dense than the liquid:

It Describes water because ice is less dense than liquid water

7. In a phase diagram, the solid-liquid coexistence line has a positive slope.

It describe other substances

<u>This statement is :True for other substances  but false for water</u>

8. The molecules are closest in the solid phase :

<u>Describes both water and other substances </u>

Explanation:

<u>Answers to statement 1 , 2,5 and 8</u>

<u>Answers to statement 1 , 2</u>

On increasing pressure and decreasing temperature , There occur<u> Phase transition</u> always for every substance :

From liquid to solid and gas to liquid

Hence,

In Both for water and other substance

<u>High pressure will cause the liquid to become solid.</u>

<u>Answers to statement 5,8 :</u>

2.The Particles of solid are closely packed hence there is maximum force of attraction between the particle of solid as compared to liquid and gases .

Hence , The molecules <u>of both water and other substance</u>s are closest in the solid phase

This also means that in liquid molecules are far apart .

Rest statement : 3, 4 ,6 ,7 are explained below(see attached image)

<u>The molecules are closest in the liquid phase is false statement  and does not describe both water and other substance</u>

<u>Ice floats on water. For most other substances, however, the solid sinks in the liquid.</u>

This can be explained using the phase diagram of <u>water </u>:

The line DB is  = the solid-liquid coexistence line

It has negative slope because , solid ice is less dense than liquid water . That is why ice floats on water because its density is less than water

Hence <u>Water is described truly by statement 4,6, </u>which are :

4. the solid-liquid coexistence line has a negative slope.

6.The solid is less dense than the liquid.

Rest 3,7 = describe by other substance

<u>other substance</u> : Solid  is more dense than the liquid ,the solid-liquid coexistence line has a positive slope

The mass and volume of each box is given in the chart below. Calculate the density of each box. Density = Mass/ volume which box
stira [4]

Box C will have the greatest density.

All boxes have the same volume.

Explanation:

We calculate the density using the following formula:

density = mass / volume

density of Box A = 10 g / 20 cm³ = 0.5 g/cm³

density of Box B = 30 g / 20 cm³ = 1.5 g/cm³

density of Box C = 170 g / 20 cm³ = 8.5 g/cm³

Box C will have the greatest density.

All boxes have the same volume.
