Answer:

The number of core electrons = 18 electrons.

The number of valence electrons = 1 electron.

Explanation:

  • The core electrons are the electrons in the inner shells (1s²2s²2p⁶3s²3p⁶).

∴ the number of core electrons = 18 electrons.

  • The valence electrons are the electrons in the outermost shell (4s¹).

∴ the number of valence electrons = 1 electron.

Answer:

18 core electrons

1 valence electron

Explanation:

In the periodic table, potassium stands at the head or beginning of the fourth period. It is found in group 1. The third period ends with argon having 18 electrons. This implies that potassium should have at least 18 core electrons. Since it is found in group 1 having only 1 valence electron, it is expected to also have one valence electron.

Its electron configuration summarizes these statements above; 1s22s22p63s23p64s1

There are 18 core electrons and one valence electron in the outermost 4s1 orbital (the fourth shell)

The compound trimethylamine, (CH3)3N, is a weak base when dissolved in water. Write the Kb expression for the weak base equilibr
Rina8888 [55]

<u>Answer:</u> The expression of K_b is written below.

<u>Explanation:</u>

We are given a chemical compound which is trimethylamine that acts as a weak base when dissolved in water.

It accepts a proton from the water to form trimethylammonium ion and hydroxide ion.

The chemical equation for the reaction of trimethylamine in water follows:

(CH_3)_3N+H_2O\rightleftharpoons (CH_3)_3NH^++OH^-

The expression of K_b for above equation follows:

K_b=\frac{[(CH_3)_3NH^+][OH^-]}{[(CH_3)_3N]}

Hence, the expression of K_b is written above.

Changes to the global climate could include _______.
frosja888 [35]

1. Answer is d. all of the above.

Climate can be defined as the data collection of weather conditions of a long period of time in a certain area. The weather conditions that affect to the climate are temperature, precipitation, atmospheric pressure, wind and so on. Any changes in weather can change the global climate.

2. Answer is c. ozone.

Trees release oxygen and water vapor into the atmosphere but not ozone. The oxygen gas is released by trees as the by-product of photosynthesis. This is the natural way of production of oxygen gas. Water vapor can be released due to the transpiration of trees.
