The atomic number of germanium is 32 i.e. 32 protons. The number of protons in the nucleus of atom is called atomic number. Germanium has 32 electrons ( 2 electrons in first orbit, 8 electrons in second orbit, 18 electrons in third orbit and 4 electrons in the outermost orbit.
In an ionic compound the atoms are linked via ionic bonds. These are formed by the transfer of electrons from one atom to the other. The atom that loses electrons gains a positive charge whereas the atom that accepts electrons gains a negative. This happens in accordance with the octet rule wherein each atom is surrounded by 8 electrons
In the given example:
The valence electron configuration of Iodine (I) = 5s²5p⁵
It needs only one electron to complete its octet.
In the given options:
K = 4s¹
C = 2s²2p²
Cl = 3s²3p⁵
P = 3s²3p³
Thus K can donate its valence electron to Iodine. As a result K, will gain a stable noble gas configuration of argon while iodine would gain an octet. This would also balance the charges as K⁺I⁻ creating a neutral molecule.
Ans: Potassium (K)
PH scale is used to determine how acidic or basic a solution is.
we have been given the hydrogen ion concentration. Using this we can calculate pH,
pH = - log[H⁺]
pH = - log (1 x 10⁻¹ M)
pH = 1
using pH can calculate pOH
pH + pOH = 14
pOH = 14 - 1
pOH = 13
using pOH we can calculate the hydroxide ion concentration
pOH = - log [OH⁻]
[OH⁻] = antilog(-pOH)
[OH⁻] = 10⁻¹³ M
hydroxide ion concentration is 10⁻¹³ M
<u>Answer:</u>
3.67 moles
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
We need to find out the number of 
moles present in 350 grams of a compound.
Molar mass of 
= 24.305
Molar mass of 
= 35.453
So, one mole of = 24.305 + (35.453 * 2) = 95.211g
1 Mole in 1 molecule of = 
Therefore, number of moles in 350 grams of compound = 0.0105 * 350
= 3.67 moles
