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:
Ammonia is limiting reactant
Amount of oxygen left = 0.035 mol
Explanation:
Masa of ammonia = 2.00 g
Mass of oxygen = 4.00 g
Which is limiting reactant = ?
Balance chemical equation:
4NH₃ + 3O₂ → 2N₂ + 6H₂O
Number of moles of ammonia:
Number of moles = mass/molar mass
Number of moles = 2.00 g/ 17 g/mol
Number of moles = 0.12 mol
Number of moles of oxygen:
Number of moles = mass/molar mass
Number of moles = 4.00 g/ 32 g/mol
Number of moles = 0.125 mol
Now we will compare the moles of ammonia and oxygen with water and nitrogen.
NH₃ : N₂
4 : 2
0.12 : 2/4×0.12 = 0.06
NH₃ : H₂O
4 : 6
0.12 : 6/4×0.12 = 0.18
O₂ : N₂
3 : 2
0.125 : 2/3×0.125 = 0.08
O₂ : H₂O
3 : 6
0.125 : 6/3×0.125 = 0.25
The number of moles of water and nitrogen formed by ammonia are less thus ammonia will be limiting reactant.
Amount of oxygen left:
NH₃ : O₂
4 : 3
0.12 : 3/4×0.12= 0.09
Amount of oxygen react = 0.09 mol
Amount of oxygen left = 0.125 - 0.09 = 0.035 mol
Answer:
The answer to your question is: letter D.
Explanation:
Noble gases are located in group VIIIA of the periodic table, this means that they have 8 eight electrons in their outermost shell.
Due to this characteristic, they are stable and do not react with other elements.
a. 1s22s22p4 The outermost shell of this electron configuration has 6 electrons, then this element has 6 electrons not 8. This configuration is of an element of the group VIA.
b. [Ne]2s22p2 The outermost shell of this element has 4 electrons, so this is not the configuration of a noble gas.
c. [Ar] 3s1 This element only has one electron in its outermost shell, so this is the electron configuration of an alkaline metal.
d. 1s22s22p6 This element has 8 electrons in its outermost shell, so this is the electron configuration of a noble gas.
Answer:
True
Explanation:
Water vapor is totally invisible.
Without it, there would be no clouds or rain or snow, since all of these require water vapor in order to form. All of the water vapor that evaporates from the surface of the Earth eventually returns as precipitation - rain or snow.
