Answer:

C: They both have 1 electron in a p orbital.

Explanation:

Find the electron configuration of B

Boron is 1s 2s2 2p1

Find the electron configuration of Al

Aluminum is 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 2p1

If you look at the p orbital, they both have 1 electron.

Therefore, the correct answer is C.

Given the reaction _K(s) +_ Cl2(g) → _KCl(s) what is the amount of K, in grams, needed to completely react with 2 moles of Cl2(g

damaskus [11]

Answer:

156.4g K

Explanation:

I'm not sure if it is correct but I think it should be this

What do we know so far?: 2K + 1Cl2 -> 2KCl, 2 mol of Cl2

What are we looking for?: #g of K

What is the ratio of K to Cl2?: 2:1

Set up equation: 2molCl2 x $\frac{2mol K}{1 mol Cl2}$

Cancel unwanted units: 2 x $\frac{2mol K}{1}$

Answer we got: 2 x 2mol K = 4mol K

Converting moles to grams: 4 x 39.1 (molar mass of K) = 156.4g K
