Silver nitrate is an ionic bond because it is made up of metal, sliver, and a non-metal, nitrogen and oxygen. It is also a polyatomic ion (you only find polyatomic ions in ionic bonds).
1. Translate, predict the products, and balance the equation above.
Li + Cu(NO3)2 = Li(NO3)2 + Cu
2. How many particles of lithium are needed to produce 125 g of copper?
125 g Cu ( 1 mol / 63.55 g ) (1 mol Li / 1 mol Cu ) ( 6.022 x 10^23 particles / 1 mol ) = 1.18x10^24 Li particles
3. How many grams of lithium nitrate are produced from 4.83E24 particles of copper (II) nitrate?
4.83E24 particles of copper (II) nitrate ( 1 mol / 6.022x10^23 particles ) (1 mol Li(NO3)2 / 1 mol Cu(NO3)2 ) ( 130.95 g / 1 mol ) = <span>1043.77 grams Li(NO3)2</span>
The valence electrons determine how reactive an element is, and since Sodium and other alkali metals could easily lose an electron, they become very reactive to be stable.
It would be considered a Homogeneous Mixture. A mixture with two or more components mixed evenly is a Homogeneous mixture.
The idea behind a tree diagram is to start on the left with the whole thing, or one. Every time several possible outcomes exist the probability in that branch splits off into a smaller branch for each outcome.
