It's 1 because there is only one electron on the outer shell.

Answer: Option (b) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

As it is known that both sodium and potassium are same group elements. Both of then belongs to group 1A.

Since, sodium is at 11th position in the periodic table and its atomic number is also 11. Therefore, electronic distribution of sodium is 2, 8, 1.

Similarly, potassium is placed at 19th position in the periodic table and its atomic number is 19. So, electronic distribution of potassium is 2, 8, 8, 1.

It is known that valence electrons are the electrons present in the outermost shell of an atom.

So, in a potassium atom there is only one valence electron is present.

Thus, we can conclude that potassium have 1 valence electron.

Which observation provided Albert Einstein the clue that he needed to explain the photoelectric effect? Light is made up of extr
Aliun [14]

The correct answer is

Energy of electrons depends on light’s frequency, not intensity.

As per photoelectric effect, if we incident a light on metal surface it will results into emission of electron from it

if we increase the number of photons the number of electrons will increase however if we increase the frequency the number of photons will not increase

While if we increase frequency the energy of electrons will increase as

Energy of photon = Work function of metal + kinetic energy of electrons

Perform the following operationand express the answer inscientific notation.7.00x10^5 - 5.00x10^4
11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

Taking into account the scientific notation,  the result of the subtraction is 6.5×10⁵.

<h3>Scientific notation</h3>

First, remember that scientific notation is a quick way to represent a number using powers of base ten.

The numbers are written as a product:

a×10ⁿ

where:

  • a is a real number greater than or equal to 1 and less than 10, to which a decimal point is added after the first digit if it is a non-integer number.
  • n is an integer, which is called an exponent or an order of magnitude. Represents the number of times the comma is shifted. It is always an integer, positive if it is shifted to the left, negative if it is shifted to the right.
<h3 /><h3>Subtraction in scientific notation</h3>

You want to subtract two numbers in scientific notation. It should be noted that when the numbers to be added do not have the same base 10 exponent, the base 10 power with the highest exponent must be found. In this case, the highest exponent is 5.

Then all the values ​​are expressed as a function of the base 10 exponent with the highest exponent. In this case: 5.00×10⁴=0.500×10⁵

Taking the quantities to the same exponent, all you have to do is subtract what was previously called the number "a". In this case:

7.00×10⁵ - 0.500×10⁵= (7.00- 0.500)×10⁵= 6.5×10⁵

Finally, the result of the subtraction is 6.5×10⁵.

If an experiment calls for 0.200mole acetic acid (Hc2H3O2)how many grams of glacial acetic acid do we need?
bija089 [108]
<h3>Molar mass:-</h3>

\\ \sf\longmapsto HC_2H_3O_2

\\ \sf\longmapsto 1u+2(12u)+3(1u)+2(16u)

\\ \sf\longmapsto 1u+24u+3u+48u

\\ \sf\longmapsto 28u+48u

\\ \sf\longmapsto 76u

\\ \sf\longmapsto 76g/mol

  • No of moles=0.2mol
  • Given mass=?

\\ \sf\longmapsto No\:of\;moles=\dfrac{Given\:Mass}{Molar\:Mass}

\\ \sf\longmapsto 0.2=\dfrac{Given\:mass}{76}

\\ \sf\longmapsto Given\:Mass=0.2\times 76

When working with hazardous substances in the laboratory your partner splashes a small amount of Sodium Hydroxide onto their clo
alexira [117]

Answer:

a) After helping our partner, we should immediately report the incident to the lab manager or any person in charge of the emergencies occurring in the lab.

b) We should have a copy of the Material Safety Data Sheet to give to the responders. This is because the responder can identify what materials were being used by the person ans what other security measures need to be taken.
