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.

The chemist discovers a more efficient catalyst that can produce ethyl butyrate with a 78.0% yield. How many grams would be prod
Vedmedyk [2.9K]

The grams that would be produced  from 7.70 g of butanoic acid and excess ethanol is 7.923grams

calculation

Step 1: write the chemical equation for the reaction

CH3CH2CH2COOH + CH3CH2OH →  CH3CH2CH2COOCH2CH3  +H2O

step 2: find the moles of butanoic acid

moles= mass/ molar mass

=  7.70 g/ 88 g/mol=0.0875 moles

Step 3:  use the mole ratio to determine the moles of ethyl butyrate

moles ratio of CH3CH2CH2COOH :CH3CH2CH2COOCH2CH3  is 1:1 therefore the moles of CH3CH2CH2COOCH2CH3 = 0.0875  x78/100=0.0683moles

step 4: find mass = moles x molar mass

 =  0.0683 moles  x116 g/mol=7.923grams

The terms Q and K refer to reaction components at non-equilibrium and equilibrium conditions, respectively. For a forward reacti
daser333 [38]

Answer:

The value of Q must be less than that of K.

Explanation:

The difference of K and Q can be understood with the help of an example as follows

         A ⇄ B

In this reaction A is converted into B but after some A is converted , forward reaction stops At this point , let equilibrium concentration of B be [B] and let equilibrium concentration of A be [A]

In this case ratio of  [B] and  [A]  that is

K =  [B] / [A] which is called equilibrium constant.

But if we measure the concentration of A and B ,before equilibrium is reached , then the ratio of the concentration of A and B will be called Q. As reaction continues concentration of A increases and concentration of B decreases. Hence Q tends to be equal to K.

Q = [B] / [A] . It is clear that Q < K before equilibrium.

If Q < K , reaction will proceed towards equilibrium or forward reaction will

proceed .
