difficult to answer, need a bit more detail
Answer:
C
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
Answer:
1.784 g
Explanation:
The equation of the reaction is;
NaOH(aq) + KHC8H4O4(aq) --------> KNaC8H4O4(aq) + H2O(l)
Number of moles of NaOH reacted = 17.47/1000 * 0.5000 M
Number of moles of NaOH reacted =8.735 * 10^-3 moles
From the reaction equation;
1 mole of NaOH reacted with 1 mole of KHC8H4O4
Hence, 8.735 * 10^-3 moles of NaOH reacts with 8.735 * 10^-3 moles of KHP.
So,
Mass of KHP reacted = 8.735 * 10^-3 moles * 204.2 g/mol = 1.784 g
Try adding spaces next time! That's iodine. Check all of the numbers to make sure all of the orbitals are filled, then find the ones which aren't. In this one, only the 5p5 subshell isn't full. 5p5 is the fifth row on the right side, count across the nonmetals and metalloids until the fifth one (a halogen). That's iodine, and that's your answer!
