Why does lithium form a 1 ion?.

Chemistry
1 answer:
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.

Element
Svetllana [295]

Answer:

Number of moles = 10.6 mol

Explanation:

Given data:

Molar mass of H = 1.008 g/mol

Molar mass of C = 12.01 g/mol

Molar mass of O = 16.00 g/mol

Mass of citric acid = 2.03 kg (2.03×1000 = 2030 g)

Number of moles of citric acid = ?

Solution:

Formula:

Number of moles = mass/molar mass

Now we will calculate the molar mass of citric acid:

C₆H₈O₇ = (12.01× 6) + (1.008×8) + (16.00×7)

C₆H₈O₇ = 72.06 + 8.064+112

C₆H₈O₇ = 192.124g/mol

Number of moles = 2030 g/ 192.124g/mol

Number of moles = 10.6 mol

If 16.29 grams of Na2SO4 is mixed with 3.697 grams of C and allowed to react according to the balanced equation: Na2SO4(aq) + 4
abruzzese [7]

<u>Answer:</u> The limiting reagent in the given chemical reaction is carbon metal.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Excess reagent is defined as the reagent which is present in large amount in a chemical reaction.

Limiting reagent is defined as the reagent which is present in small amount in a chemical reaction. Formation of product depends on the limiting reagent.

To calculate the number of moles, we use the equation:

\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}      .....(1)

  • <u>For sodium sulfate:</u>

Given mass of sodium sulfate = 16.29 g

Molar mass of sodium sulfate = 142 g/mol

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

\text{Moles of sodium sulfate}=\frac{16.29g}{142g/mol}=0.115mol

  • <u>For carbon:</u>

Given mass of carbon = 3.697 g

Molar mass of carbon = 12 g/mol

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

\text{Moles of carbon}=\frac{3.697g}{12g/mol}=0.31mol

For the given chemical reaction:

Na_2SO_4(aq.)+4C(s)\rightarrow Na_2S(s)+4CO(g)

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

4 moles of carbon reacts with 1 mole of sodium sulfate

So, 0.31 moles of carbon will react with = \frac{1}{4}\times 0.31=0.0775mol of sodium sulfate

As, given amount of sodium sulfate is more than the required amount. So, it is considered as an excess reagent.

Thus, carbon metal is considered as a limiting reagent because it limits the formation of product.

Hence, the limiting reagent in the given chemical reaction is carbon metal.

What is the molar mass of magnesium tartrate
Leya [2.2K]

Answer:

172.385 g/mol

Explanation:

Magnesium Tartrate is C4H4MgO6

C - 12.01 g/mol

H - 1.01 g/mol

Mg - 24.305 g/mol

O - 16.00 g/mol

12.01(4) + 1.01(4) + 24.305 + 16(6) = 172.385 g/mol
