Answer:

Explanation:

looking at a periodic table X is fluorine and Y is potassium

Fluorine is in group 7 and forms a 1- charge (which gains electrons) and potassium is in group 1 and forms a 1+ charge (which loses electrons)

Fluorine (X) has an electronic structure of 2,7 and needs to gain an electron from Potassium (Y) to have a full outer shell and potassium has an electronic structure of 2,8,8,1 so needs to lose an electron to have a full outer shell as well. This means that the electron that potassium (Y) has lost is given away to fluorine (X), so both elements become stable.

This is known as ionic bonding where metals (like potassium) lose electrons and non-metals (like fluorine) gain electrons to become more stable, forming ions

Any further clarification let me know

Which trends appear as the elements in Period 3 are considered from left to right?

andreev551 [17]

Answer:

Metallic character decreases, and electronegativity increases.

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, according to the organization of the periodic table, we can see that from left to right, the electronegativity increases as nonmetals are able to attract electrons more easily than metals.

Moreover, in contrast to the previous periodic trend, the metallic character decreases from left to right because the elements tend to decrease the capacity to lose electrons and consequently start attracting them.

Thus, the answer would be: "Metallic character decreases, and electronegativity increases".

Best regards!

How many moles of LiOH are needed to react completely with 25.5 g of CO2

LekaFEV [45]

Answer:

3.18 mol

Explanation:

$2LiOH+CO_{2}-> Li_{2}CO_{3} +H_{2}O$

n(CO2) = mass/ Mr.

= 25.5 / 16

= 1.59 mol

As per the equation above,

n(LiOH) : n(CO2)

2 : 1

∴ 3.18 : 1.59

There are some data that suggest that zinc lozenges can significantly shorten the duration of a cold. If the solubility of zinc

zhuklara [117]

Answer:

$K_{sp}$ of $Zn(CH_{3}COO)_{2}$ is 0.0513

Explanation:

Solubility equilibrium of $Zn(CH_{3}COO)_{2}$ :

$Zn(CH_{3}COO)_{2}\rightleftharpoons Zn^{2+}+2CH_{3}COO^{-}$

Solubility product of $Zn(CH_{3}COO)_{2}$ ( $K_{sp}$ ) is written as- $K_{sp}=[Zn^{2+}][CH_{3}COO^{-}]^{2}$

Where $[Zn^{2+}]$ and $[CH_{3}COO^{-}]$ represents equilibrium concentration (in molarity) of $Zn^{2+}$ and $CH_{3}COO^{-}$ respectively.

Molar mass of $Zn(CH_{3}COO)_{2}$ = 183.48 g/mol

So, solubility of $Zn(CH_{3}COO)_{2}$ = $\frac{43.0}{183.48}M$ = 0.234M

1 mol of $Zn(CH_{3}COO)_{2}$ gives 1 mol of $Zn^{2+}$ and 2 moles of $CH_{3}COO^{-}$ upon dissociation.

so, $[Zn^{2+}]$ = 0.234 M and $[CH_{3}COO^{-}]$ = $(2\times 0.234)M=0.468M$

so, $K_{sp}=(0.234)\times (0.468)^{2}=0.0513$
