How many s electrons are there in potassium?​

Chemistry
1 answer:
Pani-rosa [81]3 years ago
8 0

Answer: 19

Explanation:

In order to write the Potassium electron configuration we first need to know the number of electrons for the K atom (there are 19 electrons). When we write the configuration we'll put all 19 electrons in orbitals around the nucleus of the Potassium atom.

What causes gas particles to collide with the walls of their containers?
blondinia [14]

Answer:

Kinetic energy

Explanation:

The kinetic energy of a particle is directly proportional to the temperature of it. An increase in temperature increases the speed in which the molecules move, causing t[he particles to collide with the walls of their containers.

The most common reaction that causes spoilage isn't a reaction at all. Molds and Bacteria are attracted to the easily found presence of water in the fruit. They find a natural place to reproduce and what they do causes spoilage.

Very few sources talk about the chemical changes that take place. If you put fruit in a refrigerator it slows the spoiling process down. That means that the chemical reaction has to be endothermic (it requires heat to occur)

The process of spoilage is speeded up by bananas for example, giving up Ethylene gas. You do not want to put a banana with tomatoes, because tomatoes are very sensitive to Ethylene. (It's OK to eat them together. They make a terrific salad. Yum).

I cannot find a definitive source that connects all this together, but the conduct of the fruit in refrigerators confirms what I am saying.

Spoilage is a very complex reaction and interaction with the environment. I have given you a hint of what happens but you should search it out to convince yourself of the outcome.

(a) ions in a certain volume of .20M NaCl (aq) are represented in the box above on the left. in the box above on the right, draw
mamaluj [8]

Answer:

  • The first picture attached is the diagram that accompanies the question.

  • The<u> second picture attached</u> is the diagram with the answer.

Explanation:

In the box on the left there are 8  Cl⁻ ions and 8 Na⁺ ions.

The dissociaton equation for NaCl(aq) is:

  • NaCl (aq) → Na⁺ (aq) + Cl⁻(aq)

The dissociation equation for CaCl₂ (aq)  is:

  • CaCl₂ (aq) → Ca²⁺ (aq) + 2Cl⁻(aq)

A 0.10MCaCl₂ (aq) solution will have half the number of CaCl₂ units as the number of NaCl units in a 0.20M NaCl (aq) solution.

Thus, while the 0.20M NaCl (aq) solution yields 8 ions of Na⁺ and 8 ions of Cl⁻, the 0.10MCaCl₂ (aq) solution will yield 4 ions of Ca²⁺ (half because the concentration if half)  and 8 ions of Cl⁻ (first take half and then multiply by 2 because the dissociation reaction).

Thus, your drawing must show 4 dots representing Ca²⁺ ions and 8 dots representing Cl⁻ ions in the box on the right.

Heat Transfer Lab

The following represents a lab set up for heat transfer. The cup on the left started with boiling water at 100 degrees C and the cup on the right has water at 20 degrees C. There is an aluminum bar between the two cups allowing heat to transfer from one cup into the other. The set up will be left alone for 20 minutes and temperatures of each cup of water will be recorded every minute for 20 minutes.
