Answer:
The element potassium forms a cation with the charge +1 . The symbol for this ion is K⁺, and the name is potassium ion. The number of electrons in this ion is 18.
Explanation:
Potassium is a metal. It belongs to the group 1 elements. Metals form cations by losing electrons. Since potassium is a group element, it forms a cation by losing one electron. The charge it has is +1 due to the excess of the protons compared t the electrons by 1.
Potassium has 19 electrons. Potassium io on the other hand has 19-1 = 18 electrons.
Answer:
6
Explanation:
If there are 6 electrons and it has a balanced charge, there also must be six protons.
₇N¹⁴ + ₂He⁴ → ₈O¹⁷ + ₁H¹
The superscript for oxygen is 17.
This problem is providing the basic dissociation constant of ibuprofen (IB) as 5.20, its pH as 8.20 and is requiring the equilibrium concentration of the aforementioned drug by giving the chemical equation at equilibrium it takes place. The obtained result turned out to be D) 4.0 × 10−7 M, according to the following work:
First of all, we set up an equilibrium expression for the given chemical equation at equilibrium, in which water is omitted for it is liquid and just aqueous species are allowed to be included:
![Kb=\frac{[IBH^+][OH^-]}{[IB]}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=Kb%3D%5Cfrac%7B%5BIBH%5E%2B%5D%5BOH%5E-%5D%7D%7B%5BIB%5D%7D)
Next, we calculate the concentration of hydroxide ions and the Kb due to the fact that both the pH and pKb were given:

![[OH^-]=10^{-5.8}=1.585x10^{-6}M](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5BOH%5E-%5D%3D10%5E%7B-5.8%7D%3D1.585x10%5E%7B-6%7DM)

Then, since the concentration of these ions equal that of the conjugated acid of the ibuprofen (IBH⁺), we can plug in these and the Kb to obtain:
![6.31x10^{-6}=\frac{(1.585x10^{-6})(1.585x10^{-6})}{[IB]}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=6.31x10%5E%7B-6%7D%3D%5Cfrac%7B%281.585x10%5E%7B-6%7D%29%281.585x10%5E%7B-6%7D%29%7D%7B%5BIB%5D%7D)
Finally, we solve for the equilibrium concentration of ibuprofen:
![[IB]=\frac{(1.585x10^{-6})(1.585x10^{-6})}{6.31x10^{-6}}=4.0x10^{-7}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5BIB%5D%3D%5Cfrac%7B%281.585x10%5E%7B-6%7D%29%281.585x10%5E%7B-6%7D%29%7D%7B6.31x10%5E%7B-6%7D%7D%3D4.0x10%5E%7B-7%7D)
