Potassium belongs to group IA of the elements. This means that it will give up one of its electrons to form the cation K+. Opposite to that is bromine in which it accepts one electrons to form the anion Br-. The binding of these elements will form KBr and is formed from transfer of electron from one element to the other. This is the mechanism of ionic bond formation.

Metals transfers electrons to nonmetals. So K transfers one electron to Br because K is located at 1A in the periodic table. Br has seven electrons, now both K and Br are stable by gaining and losing one electron. <span>The transfer of electrons makes metals</span> <span>to become </span>positive ions <span>and </span>nonmetal <span>to become </span>negative ions. When a<span>n ionic bond is formed, the charges attract each other.</span>

A recent home energy bill indicates that a household used 475475 kWh (kilowatt‑hour) of electrical energy and 135135 therms for
faltersainse [42]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that,.

A house hold power consumption is

475 KWh

Gas used is

135 thermal gas for month

Given that, 1 thermal = 29.3 KWh

Then,

135 thermal = 135 × 29.3 = 3955.5 KWh

So, total power used is

P = 475 + 3955.5

P =4430.5 KWh

Since 1 hr = 3600 seconds

So, the energy consumed for 1hr is

1KW = 1000W

P = energy / time

Energy = Power × time

E = 4430.5 KWhr × 1000W / KW × 3600s / hr

E = 1.595 × 10^10 J

So, using Albert Einstein relativity equation

E = mc²

m = E / c²

c is speed of light = 3 × 10^8 m/s

m = 1.595 × 10^10 / (3 × 10^8)²

m = 1.77 × 10^-7 kg

Then,

1 kg = 10^6 mg

m = 1.77 × 10^-7 kg × 10^6 mg / kg

m = 0.177mg

m ≈ 0.18 mg

strojnjashka [21]

Answer:

<h2>All of the work of life</h2>

Explanation:

In all works of life science can be applied, in-fact science has already been applied already, even in the humanities, social sciences and art related studies sciences is being applied,

    Furthermore, the application of science and technology knows no boundaries, and as science is advancing day by day, expanding to new frontiers and breaking new limits so is it application to all works of life and relevance everyday.
