Why does lithium form a 1 ion?.

Chemistry

Alik [6]1 year ago
5 0

When the electrons are filled in the electron shells in lithium it's 2,1 it forms a +1 charge because it needs to loose one electron inorder to gain stable elctronic configuration

<h3>What is lithium ?</h3>

Chemical element lithium has the symbol Li and atomic number 3. A soft, silvery-white alkali metal, it is. It is the least dense solid element and the least dense metal under typical conditions.

  • 3 protons and 3 electrons make up an atom of lithium. It is capable of losing an electron, turning it into an ion. Now that it has more positive protons than negative ones, it is positively charged overall. Consequently, it is a positive ion.

  • Compared to most of the other Periodic Table elements, lithium has a larger atomic radius. Lithium has a positive charge when in compounds.

What is the oxidizing agent in the following equation? Al (s) + 3 Ag+ (aq) produces Al^+3 (aq) + 3 Ag (s)
Keith_Richards [23]

Answer:

Ag is the oxidizing agent

Explanation:

oxidizing agent in the following equation?

Al (s) + 3 Ag+ (aq) = Al+3 (aq) + 3 Ag (s)

Left side

Al = 1

Ag = 3

Right Side

Al = 1

Ag = 3

So it's balanced already good.

Define

oxidizing agent = An oxidizing agent is the substance that gains electrons and is reduced in a chemical reaction.

Al is the reducing agent.

Ag is the oxidizing agent

How does the size of a nanoparticle compare with the size of an atom?
RSB [31]
A nanoparticle is larger than an atom. A nanoparticle is usually made from a few hundred atoms. These  particles range from 1 nanometers to 100 nanometers. On the other hand an atom ranges from 0.1 nanometers to 105 nanometers. Using the sizes above, one can clearly see and understand that an atom is smaller.

Which statement about silver Ag metal is least reliable
Anna007 [38]
<span>The choices for this question can be found elsewhere and as follows:

Silver is a transition metal with electrons in the d shell.
Silver atoms have 47 protons in their nuclei.
Silver atoms commonly form ions with a +1 charge.

I think the correct answer is the last option. The least reliable information would be that s</span>ilver atoms commonly form ions with a +1 charge.

A car traveling at a constant speed travels 175 miles in four hours. How many minutes will it take for the car to travel 1000 fe
elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

It takes 0.26 minutes to travel 1000 feet

<u>Solution:</u>

Given that car traveling at a constant speed travels 175 miles in four hours

Distance = 175 miles

Time taken = 4 hours

Convert the units to feet and minute

Given that,

1 mile = 5280 feet

175 miles = 5280 x 175 feet = 918720 feet

Also we know that,

1 hour = 60 minutes

4 hours = 60 x 4 minutes = 240 minutes

Thus, we got,

Distance = 918720 feet

Time taken = 240 minutes

<em><u>Find the speed of car</u></em>

<em><u>Speed is given by formula:</u></em>

speed = \frac{distance}{time}

speed = \frac{918720}{240} = 3828

Thus speed of car is 3828 feet per minute

<em><u>How many minutes will it take for the car to travel 1000 feet?</u></em>

Let "x" be the minutes needed for 1000 feet

speed of car is 3828 feet per minute

1 minute = 3828 feet

x minute = 1000 feet

This forms a proportion. We can solve by cross multiplying

x \times 3828 = 1000 \times 1\\\\x = \frac{1000}{3828}\\\\x = 0.26

Thus it takes 0.26 minutes to travel 1000 feet
