Answer:

The radii of potassium is 231 pm

Explanation:

Atomic radii trend along group:

As we move down the group atomic radii increased with increase of atomic number. The addition of electron in next level cause the atomic radii to increased. The hold of nucleus on valance shell become weaker because of shielding of electrons thus size of atom increased.

The given elements are present in same group i.e group one,

Li     152 pm

Na    186 pm

K

Rb    244 pm

The radii of potassium must be greater than sodium and smaller than rubidium.

Thus the value must be between 186 pm - 244 pm

it means the radii of potassium is 231 pm.

calcium has atomic number of 20 how many electrons of a calcium atom are involved in chemical bonding
Lelu [443]

The answer is 2 electrons.


The electron configuration of calcium is 2:8:8:2

Calcium has two electrons in its outermost shell. These are its valence electrons and are the ones used in bonding with other elements.  Valence electrons of an atom are those electrons that are in its outer energy shell or that are available for bonding.

Calcium is a metal. When metals react with non-metals, electrons are transferred from the metal atoms to the non-metal atoms forming ions. The resulting compound is known  as an ionic compound.

For example, when calcium metal reacts with chlorine gas,   calcium gives up its two valence electrons and Chlorine accepts them resulting in a new substance called calcium chloride in which the two elements have ended up forming ionic bonds.

4.4 grams of CO2 represents how many moles?
jeka57 [31]

Answer:

1) Moles of CO 2 = Given mass / Molecular mass of CO 2 = 4.4 / 44 = 0.1 mole. 2) Molecules of CO2 in 0.1 moles of CO2 = 0.1 x 6.023 x 10 23 = 6.023 x 10 22 molecules 3) 44 gram (molecular wt of CO 2) contains 2 moles atom of oxygen therefore 4.4 gram of CO2 will contain = 2 /44 *4.4 = 0.2 moles atom of Oxygen.
