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.
The answer will be Magnesium. It is a two positive ion and it can charge electrons and protons.
Answer:
Percent yield of PI3 = 95.4%
Explanation:
This is the reaction:
2P (s) + 3I2 (g) > 2PI3 (g)
Let's determine the moles of iodine that has reacted.
58.6 g / 253.8 g/mol = 0.231 mol
Ratio is 3:2. Let's make a rule of three to state the moles produced at 100 % yield reaction.
3 moles of I2 react to make 2 moles of PI3
0.231 moles of I2 would make (0.231 .2) / 3 = 0.154 moles of PI3
As we have produced 0.147 moles let's determine the percent yield.
(Yield produced / Theoretical yield) . 100 > (0.147 / 0.154) . 100 = 95.4%
The answer is volume because The base units of length and volume are linked in the metric system. By definition, a liter is equal to the volume of a cube exactly 10 cm tall, 10 cm long, and 10 cm wide. Because the volume of this cube is 1000 cubic centimeters and a liter contains 1000 milliliters, 1 milliliter is equivalent to 1 cubic centimeter.
Hope this helps :)
