What are the coordination numbers of li+ and s2− in the lithium sulfide crystal shown? enter the values in order of li+ and s2−,

respectively?

Answer:    
As there must be twice as many lithium ions as sulphide ions, the 'numbers'
must be different. 
 It's 4:8. i.e. 4 sulphides around each lithium; and 8 lithiums around each
sulphur. 
 It's an antifluorite structure.

In the lithium sulphide crystal, coordination number of {\mathbf{L}}{{\mathbf{i}}^{\mathbf{+}}}is 4 and the coordination number of {{\mathbf{S}}^{{\mathbf{2-}}}}is 8.

Further explanation:

Crystal structure or lattice is the three-dimensional representation of atoms and molecules arranged in a specific manner. The unit cell is the tiniest part of the lattice that is repeated in all directions to yield the crystal lattice. There are 3 major types of cubic unit cells as follows:

1. The simple cubic unit cell (sc)

2. Body-centered unit cell (bcc)

3. Face-centered unit cell(fcc)

The crystal lattice formed by {\text{L}}{{\text{i}}^+} and {{\text{S}}^{2-}} is an antifluorite structure in which ccp/fcc unit cell is formed by anions and cation are present in all tetrahedral voids.

Ions present in tetrahedral void has a coordination number 4, therefore, {\text{L}}{{\text{i}}^+} has coordination number 4.

{\text{L}}{{\text{i}}^+}has +1 charge and {{\text{S}}^{2-}}has -2 charge. Therefore the ratio of cation to anion is 1:2 thus the coordination number of anion must be twice of cation thus it is 8.

What are the effects on the bodies of water? use terms algal bloom, dead zone and hypotoxic
Anna35 [415]

Water pollution is defined as the mixing of water with unwanted substances and that makes water unsafe.

Water pollution includes runoff of excess fertilizers,

herbicides, and insecticides from agricultural lands

and residential areas; oil, grease, and toxic chemicals

from urban runoff and energy production; and

sediment from improperly managed construction sites,

crop and forest lands, and eroding stream banks.

Polluted waters have high BOD which affects aquatic biodiversity.

Hpotoxic substances such as lead, arsenic, and fluoride cause many problems to aquatic animals and humans. Water contaminated with Arsenic results in diseases such as arsenicosis. Fluoride had been reported to cause depression in DNA and RNA synthesis in cultured cells, significant reductions in DNA and RNA levels, and conditions including aging, cancer, and arteriosclerosis are associated with DNA damage and its disrepair. Lead causes problems related to the central nervous system. Children and pregnant women are most at risk. Routine applications of fertilizers and pesticides for agriculture and uncontrolled runoff in water bodies. Adds nitrogen and phosphorus to water. It adds nitrogen and phosphorus to water causing eutrophication and algal blooms.

Therefore, all these activities make our water bodies a death zone for the marine ecosystem as well as humans.

Why krypton and noble gas are not used in airships using the periodic table?
WITCHER [35]

Answer:

Since the noble gases are unreactive or inert, they are safe to use. Helium is used to fill balloons and airships, because it is much lighter that air and it will not catch fire. Neon is used in advertising signs. It will give red glow, but the color can be changes by mixing it with other gases.

A runner can run at a speed of 4km/h in 2 hours. What distance will she
damaskus [11]

Answer:

Distance cover = 8 km

Explanation:

Given:

Speed of runner = 4 km/h

Time taken = 2 hour

Find:

Distance cover

Computation:

Distance = Speed x Time

Distance cover = Speed of runner x Time taken

Distance cover = 4 x 2

Distance cover = 8 km
