= 18.234 grams
A low electronegativity
Explanation:
Potassium is a metal that is expected to have a very low electronegativity value.
Electronegativity is the relative tendency by which an atom attracts valence electrons in a chemical bond.
Potassium is an element in the first group on the periodic table.
The common trend is that electronegativity increases from left to right and decreases down a group.
- Potassium as metal will prefer to lose electrons rather than attracting because that will make it achieve the octet configuration that will ensure its stability.
- This is why it will have low electronegativity.

Answer:
w = -531 kJ
1. Work was done by the system.
Explanation:
Step 1: Given data
- Heat gained by the system (q): 687 kJ (By convention, when the system absorbs heat, q > 0).
- Change in the internal energy of the system (ΔU°): 156 kJ
Step 2: Calculate the work done (w)
We will use the following expression.
ΔU° = q + w
w = ΔU° - q
w = 156 kJ - 687 kJ
w = -531 kJ
By convention, when w < 0, work is done by the system on the surroundings.
<span>2.28 kg x 213 kJ/kg = 486 kJ = 4.86E+05 J</span>
The answer is the second choice.
