The answer is: a relatively large electron cloud.

Atom is composed of the nucleus and the electron cloud.

Protons (positive particles) and neutrons (neutral particles) are in the nucleus of an atom and electrons (negative particles) are in the electron cloud.

Nucleus is in the centar of the atom atom and electron cloud is surrounding it.

Atoms have their mass concentrated in a very small nucleus.

lawyer [7]

Answer: 2LiI(aq)+Hg_2(NO_3)_2(aq)\rightarrow Hg_2I_2(s)+2LiNO_3(aq)

Explanation:

A double displacement reaction is one in which exchange of ions take place. The salts which are soluble in water are designated by symbol (aq) and those which are insoluble in water and remain in solid form are represented by (s) after their chemical formulas.

Precipitation is a type of displacement reaction in which one the products is formed in the solid state.
