One valence electron is lost by Lithium

<h3>What is Electron ?</h3>

Unattached or attached to an atom, an electron is a negatively charged subatomic particle. One of the three main types of particles within an atom is an electron that is bound to it. The other two are protons and neutrons.

  • Due to the fact that full valence shells are more stable states and that all noble gases have them, lithium wants to lose electrons in order to become like helium. Consequently, alkali metals lose one electron to achieve the closest noble gas configuration.

  • Each lithium atom loses an electron to become a Li+ cation when it forms chemical compounds with other elements. The anions in ionic compounds that are negatively charged are therefore attracted to these. There are many applications for lithium compounds.

  • Since full valence shells are more stable states, and all noble gases have them, lithium wants to lose electrons to become like helium. In order to obtain the nearest noble gas configuration, alkali metals must lose one electron.

Why is photosynthesis an endothermic reaction?
diamong [38]

Answer: Option (c) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Photosynthesis is a process in which sunlight, carbon dioxide, and water is used by the plants to make their on food.  

Plants absorb energy in the form of heat from the sunlight and thus produce glucose and oxygen from carbon dioxide and water. This absorbed energy is then used to start various chemical and biochemical reactions in the plants.

Hence, photosynthesis is an endothermic reaction.

Thus, we can conclude that a large amount of energy is required to activate the reaction.
