Explanation:
Cations are positively charged ions with fewer electrons than protons. To partake in reaction, metals lose electrons to achieve a stable octet configuration. It has lost valence electrons and wold have a positive charge associated with it.
Potassium is a group 1 element. A metal.
Potassium has 1 valence electron so it loses the valence electron to form a stable octet.
A potassium ion has a positive charge and therefore cannot be an anion but is a cation.
The group number pretty much denotes the number of valence electrons.
Group 1 = 1
Group 2 = 2
Group 17 = 7
Group 18 = 8

Find the amount of atoms from 128 grams of NaCl?
Answers
Answer:
13.25 ×10²³ atoms
Explanation:
Given data:
Mass of NaCl = 128 g
Number of atoms = ?
Solution:
First of all we will calculate the number of moles of NaCl.
Number of moles = mass/molar mass
Number of moles = 128 g/ 58.4 g/mol
Number of moles = 2.2 mol
Number of atoms:
1 mole of any substance contain 6.022×10²³ atoms.
2.2 mol × 6.022×10²³ atoms / 1mol

Calculate the average atomic mass for an imaginary element "E" that has the following isotope abundances:
56.67 % E-102.658 amu
43.33% E-104.770 amu
Answers
Answer:
Average atomic mass of E = 103.57 amu
Explanation:
Given data:
Average atomic mass of E = ?
Abundance of E-102.658 = 56.67%
Abundance of E-104.770 = 43.33%
Solution:
Average atomic mass of E = (abundance of 1st isotope × its atomic mass) +(abundance of 2nd isotope × its atomic mass) / 100
Average atomic mass of E = (56.67×102.658)+(43.33×104.770) /100
Average atomic mass of E = 5817.63 + 4539.68 / 100
Average atomic mass of E = 10357.31 / 100
Average atomic mass of E = 103.57 amu.

Answers
Answer:
Gas Pressure
Explanation:
Gas pressure is caused by the force exerted by gas molecules colliding with the surfaces of objects (Figure 5.2. 1). Although the force of each collision is very small, any surface of appreciable area experiences a large number of collisions in a short time, which can result in a high pressure.

If a 6N weight is hung on a spring, and it extends by 0.2m, what is the spring constant (k)? What do you think the units are?
Answers
Answer:
K = 30N/m
Explanation:
We use this equation:
F= k∆x
Where ∆x refers to the amount or stretch or compression and k is the spring constant.
F = force
k = spring constant
∆x = change in length of spring
We don't know the value of k, so we make k the subject:
k = F/∆x
k = 6N x 0.2m
k = 30N/m

Determine the mass, in grams, for 1.20e24 molecules of H₂
Answers
Answer:
3.98g
Explanation:
Given parameters:
Number of molecules = 1.2 x 10²⁴ molecules
Unknown:
Mass of H₂ = ?
Solution:
To find the mass of this molecule, we use the expression below:
Mass = number of moles x molar mass
Molar mass of H₂ = 2(1) = 2g/mol
6.02 x 10²³ molecules are contained in 1 mole of a substance
So; 1.2 x 10²⁴ molecules will have [tex]\frac{1.2 x 10^{24} }{6.02 x 10^{23} }[/tex] = 1.99 moles of H₂
Mass of H₂ = 1.99 x 2 = 3.98g
Explain why chlorine (Cl2) is a gas at room temperature,
but sodium chloride (NaCl) is a solid at room
temperature.
Include description of the bonding and structure of chloride and sodium chloride in your answer
Answers
Answer:
The melting/boiling point of a substance determines what state of matter it takes at a certain temperature.
In Cl2 there are covalent bonds between the atoms forming simple molecules. There are weak attractions between molecules of Cl2 meaning little energy is needed to break these forces of attraction and therefore Cl2 has a low boiling point.
NaCl on the other hand has strong electrostatic forces of attraction between the positvely charged Na ion and the negatively charged Cl ion. NaCl forms a giant ionic lattice that requires high amounts of energy to break and therefore has a high melting point.

There have been made 2 attempts of oxygen production by potassium permanganate.In the first attempt they have got 75ml oxygen in 3 minutes whearas there have been got 100ml in 5 minutes by the 2nd attempt.In what case the speed of the oxygen production is bigger???
Pls explain your answer
Answers
Answer:
The speed of oxygen production is bigger in the first attempt.
Explanation:
In the first attempt, since 75ml oxygen is produced in 3 minutes, the rate of oxygen production is r = volume of oxygen/time = 75 ml/3 min = 25 ml//min
In the second attempt, since 100ml oxygen is produced in 5 minutes, the rate of oxygen production is r' = volume of oxygen/time = 100 ml/5 min = 20 ml//min
Since r = 25 ml/min > r' = 20 ml/min, the speed of oxygen production is bigger in the first attempt.
