Why does lithium form a 1 ion?.

Chemistry
1 answer:
Alik [6]9 months 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 mass of 6 atom(s) of copper in grams?
USPshnik [31]

Answer:

6.33×10¯²² g

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Number of atoms = 6 atoms

Mass of copper (Cu) =?

From Avogadro's hypothesis, we understood that:

6.02×10²³ atoms = 1 mole of Cu

But 1 mole of Cu = 63.5 g

Thus,

6.02×10²³ atoms = 63.5 g of Cu

Finally, we shall determine the mass of 6 atoms of copper. This can be obtained as illustrated below:

6.02×10²³ atoms = 63.5 g of Cu

Therefore,

6 atoms = (6 × 63.5) / 6.02×10²³

6 atoms = 6.33×10¯²² g of Cu

Therefore, the mass of 6 atoms of copper is 6.33×10¯²² g.

Points)<br> Determine the molar mass of NaCl (the solute) in a 0.1M aqueous solution of NaCl
nalin [4]

Answer:

  58.443 g/mol

Explanation:

The molar mass of NaCl is the sum of the molar masses of the individual atoms:

  Na: 22.989770 g/mol

  Cl: 35.453 g/mol

The total molar mass is ...

  NaCl: 58.443 g/mol

__

The molar mass does not depend on whether the material is in solution or in any other form.

Which of the following would have the largest pKa?
garri49 [273]

Answer:

CH3CH2NH3+/CH3CH2NH2 would have the largest pKa

Explanation:

To answer this question we must know Kb of CH3CH2NH2 is 5.6x10⁻⁴, and for C6H5NH2 is 4.0x10⁻¹⁰. And the CH3CH2NH3+ and C6H5NH3+ are related with these substances because are their conjugate base. That means:

pKa of  CH3CH2NH3+ =  CH3CH2NH2;  C6H5NH3+ =  C6H5NH2

Also, Kw / Kb = Ka

Thus:

pKa of CH3CH2NH3+/CH3CH2NH2 is:

Kw / kb = Ka = 1.79x10⁻¹¹

-log Ka = pKa

pKa = 10.75

pKa of C6H5NH3+/ C6H5NH2 is:

Kw / kb = Ka = 2.5x10⁻⁵

-log Ka = pKa

pKa = 4.6

That means CH3CH2NH3+/CH3CH2NH2 would have the largest pKa
