The answer is: K is more reactive than Ca because K has to lose only one electron to complete its outermost shell.
Potassium is a chemical element with atomic number 19 (number of electrons is 19).
Electron configuration of potassium is: ₁₉K 1s²2s²2p⁶3s²3p⁶4s¹.
Potassium is the alkali metal and has a single valence electron in the outer electron shell.
Periodic law is the arrangement of the elements in order of increasing atomic number.
For example all alkaline metals (I group of periodic table, Na, K, Cs...) loose one electron in chemical reaction and react vigorously with water.
Reactivity series is an empirical progression of a series of metals, arranged by their reactivity from highest to lowest (alkaline metals have highest reactivity and Noble metals lowest reactivity).
The ionization energy (Ei) is the minimum amount of energy required to remove the valence electron, when element lose electrons, oxidation number of element grows (oxidation process).
Alkaline metals (far left in main group) have lowest ionizations energy and easy remove valence electrons (one electron, earth alkaline metals (right next to alkaline metals) have higher ionization energy than alkaline metals, because they have two valence electrons.
Thank you for posting your math problem here. To convert 3.9x10^5mg to dg the answer is <span>3.9 x 10^3 dg. Below is the solution:
Solution:
</span><span>1mg=0.01dg
</span><span> dg= 3.9 X 10^5mg
</span>dg = <span>(3.9 X 10^5) x 0.01
dg = </span><span>3.9 x 10^3 </span>
I don’t understand. Is there a picture? Where are the options?
The concentration of the HCl solution is 0.72 M.
<h3>How do we calculate the concentration?</h3>
Concentration of the required solution by the use of the known concentration solution will be determine by using the below equation as:
M₁V₁ = M₂V₂, where
- M₁ & V₁ are the molarity and volume of the HCl solution.
- M₂ & V₂ are the molarity and volume of the NaOH solution.
On putting values in the above equation, we get
M₁ = (1)(0.018) / (0.025) = 0.72 M
Hence required concentration of HCl is 0.72M.
