Answer: K only has 1 valence electron. It will leave with only a little effort, leaving behind a positively charged K^+1 atom.
Explanation: A neutral potassium atom has 19 total electrons. But only 1 of them is in potassium's valence shell. Valence shell means the outermost s and p orbitals. Potasium's electron configuration is 1s^2 2s^2 2p^6 3s^2 3p^6 4s^1. The 4s orbital is the only orbital in the 4th energy level. So it has a valency of 1. This means this electron will be the most likely to leave, since it is the lone electron in the oyutermost energy level (4). When that electron leaves, the charge on the atom go up by 1. The atom now has a full valence shell of 3s^2 3p^6, the same as argon, Ar.
Answer:
Coal
Explanation:
Coal is composed of the remains of dead animals and plants, being pressed down over the course of thousands of years.

Answer:
41.3kJ of heat is absorbed
Explanation:
Based in the reaction:
Fe₃O₄(s) + 4H₂(g) → 3Fe(s) + 4H₂O(g) ΔH = 151kJ
<em>1 mole of Fe3O4 reacts with 4 moles of H₂, 151kJ are absorbed.</em>
63.4g of Fe₃O₄ (Molar mass: 231.533g/mol) are:
63.4g Fe₃O₄ × (1mol / 231.533g) = <em>0.274moles of Fe₃O₄</em>
These are the moles of Fe₃O₄ that react. As 1 mole of Fe₃O₄ in reaction absorb 151kJ, 0.274moles absorb:
0.274moles of Fe₃O₄ × (151kJ / 1 mole Fe₃O₄) =
<h3>41.3kJ of heat is absorbed</h3>
