Answer:

F gains one electron.

Explanation:

Hello,

Due to the high electronegativity of the fluorine atom (approx 3.98), it tends to gain electrons rather than lose them. Now, as lithium has the following electron configuration:

$1s^22s^1$

It loses one electron that is gained by the fluorine to form lithium fluoride, LiF.

Best regards.

They don't share and both deal with only 1 electron.

Lithium gives away 1 electron.
F will receive that electron.

The chemical formula is LiF

faltersainse [42]

Answer:

a,c are correct

Explanation:

a) On mixing two gases the final temperature of both the gases becomes the same. The heat will flow from high temp. gas to lower temp gas till the temp of both gases become equal (Thermal equilibrium). This is correct.

b) The rms speed of the molecule is inversely proportional to its molar mass so the final rsm will not be the same. This is incorrect.

c) The average kinetic energy of the system will remain the same. Hence this is also correct.

How many liters of a 3 M NaOH stock solution would you need to make 552 mL of a 105 mM NaOH dilution

Ganezh [65]

Answer:

0.01932 L

Explanation:

First we convert 105 mM to M:

105 mM / 1000 = 0.105 M

Next we convert 552 mL to L:

552 mL / 1000 = 0.552 L

Then we use the following equation:

C₁V₁=C₂V₂

Where:

C₁ = 3 M

V₁ = ?

C₂ = 0.105 M

V₂ = 0.552 L

We input the given data:

3 M * V₁ = 0.105 M * 0.552 L

And solve for V₁:

V₁ = 0.01932 L

Calculate the number of molecules in 7 moles of oxygen

Alexxandr [17]

Answer:

4.21

Explanation:

use Avogadro's number

6.023 x 10^23

multiply this by 7 because you want to find 7 moles :

6.023 x 10^23 x 7 = 4.21
