The alkali metals (group 1) consist of lithium (3), sodium (11), potassium (19), rubidium (37), cesium (55), and francium (87). they are soft, metallic solids with low densities and low melting points. based on the data shown in figure 1, how many valence electrons do alkali metals share?

Which of these conditions most likely produces an unstable isotope?

High-pressure liquid chromatography (hplc) is a method used in chemistry and biochemistry to purify chemical substances. the pressures used in this procedure range from around 500 kilopascals (500,000 pa) to about 60,000 kpa (60,000,000 pa). it is often convenient to know the pressure in torr. if an hplc procedure is running at a pressure of 1.03×108 pa , what is its running pressure in torr?
