The answer is: K is more reactive than Ca because K has to lose only one electron to complete its outermost shell.
Potassium is a chemical element with atomic number 19 (number of electrons is 19).
Electron configuration of potassium is: ₁₉K 1s²2s²2p⁶3s²3p⁶4s¹.
Potassium is the alkali metal and has a single valence electron in the outer electron shell.
Periodic law is the arrangement of the elements in order of increasing atomic number.
For example all alkaline metals (I group of periodic table, Na, K, Cs...) loose one electron in chemical reaction and react vigorously with water.
Reactivity series is an empirical progression of a series of metals, arranged by their reactivity from highest to lowest (alkaline metals have highest reactivity and Noble metals lowest reactivity).
The ionization energy (Ei) is the minimum amount of energy required to remove the valence electron, when element lose electrons, oxidation number of element grows (oxidation process).
Alkaline metals (far left in main group) have lowest ionizations energy and easy remove valence electrons (one electron, earth alkaline metals (right next to alkaline metals) have higher ionization energy than alkaline metals, because they have two valence electrons.

Here's what I get.
Explanation:
(b) Wavenumber and wavelength
The wavenumber is the distance over which a cycle repeats, that is, it is the number of waves in a unit distance.

Thus, if λ = 3 µm,

(a) Wavenumber and frequency
Since
λ = c/f and 1/λ = f/c
the relation between wavenumber and frequency is

Thus, if f = 90 THz

(c) Units
(i) Frequency
The units are s⁻¹ or Hz.
(ii) Wavelength
The SI base unit is metres, but infrared wavelengths are usually measured in micrometres (roughly 2.5 µm to 20 µm).
(iii) Wavenumber
The SI base unit is m⁻¹, but infrared wavenumbers are usually measured in cm⁻¹ (roughly 4000 cm⁻¹ to 500 cm⁻¹).
Answer:
2.03 moles of Gold
Explanation:
Gold is one of the most precious metal metal used in many applications and mainly as a jewellery. In terms of purity it is categorized in Karats. 24 Karat is considered the purest Gold (i.e. 100 % Gold) while other Karats (14, 18, 22 e.t.c) are alloys with other metals and gyms.
Data Given:
Mass of Gold = 400 g
A.Mass of Gold = 196.97 g.mol⁻¹
Calculate Moles of Gold as,
Moles = Mass ÷ M.Mass
Putting values,
Moles = 400 g ÷ 196.97 g.mol⁻¹
Moles = 2.03 moles of Gold
