Explain why beryllium is produced when potassium is heated with beryllium

Chemistry
1 answer:
Vladimir [108]2 years ago
3 0

Explanation:

The more reactive element replaces less reactive element during chemical reaction.

Since, potassium is more reactive than beryllium. When potassium reacts with beryllium choride, it replaces beryllium and forms potassium chloride and produces beryllium.

If 3.289 x 10^23 atoms of potassium react with excess water, how many grams of hydrogen gas would be produced?
GarryVolchara [31]

Answer:

The amount in grams of hydrogen gas produced is 0.551 grams

Explanation:

The parameters given are;

Number of atoms of potassium, aₙ = 3.289 × 10²³ atoms

Chemical equation for the reaction is given as follows;

2K + 2H₂O \rightarrow KOH + H₂

Avogadro's number, N_A, regarding the number of molecules or atom per mole is given s follows;

N_A = 6.02 × 10²³ atoms/mole

Therefore;

The number of moles of potassium present = 3.289 × 10²³/(6.02 × 10²³) = 0.546 moles

2 moles of potassium produces one mole of hydrogen gas, therefore;

1 moles of potassium produces 1/2 mole of hydrogen gas, and 0.546 moles of potassium will produce 0.546/2 moles of hydrogen which is 0.273 moles of hydrogen gas

The molar mass of hydrogen gas = 2.016 grams

Therefore, 0.273 moles will have a mass of 0.273×2.016 = 0.551 grams.

The amount in grams of hydrogen gas produced = 0.551 grams.

Ions are formed when atoms a) gain or lose protonsb) gain or lose electronsc) gain or lose neutrons d) each of these results in
lesya692 [45]

Answer:

b) Gain or lose electrons

Explanation:

An ion is an electrically charged particle. For an atom to be charged, it must have gained or lost electron in the process and therefore, it becomes an ion.

The loss or gain of electrons is what makes an atom charged and eventually becomes an ion.

A positively charged ion is one that has lost an electron and it is called a cation. In such an ion, the number of electrons are lesser than those of protons. This is why they are cations

A negatively charged ion is one that has gained electrons. They are called anions. In such an ion, the number of electrons are greater than that of protons.

Just answer this please here’s a photo these are my last points
Neko [114]

Answer:

Photosynthesis converts carbon dioxide and water into oxygen and glucose. Glucose is used as food by the plant and oxygen is a by-product. Cellular respiration converts oxygen and glucose into water and carbon dioxide. Water and carbon dioxide are by- products and ATP is energy that is transformed from the process.
