Answer:
A positively charged subatomic particle
Answer:
Alpha particle
Explanation:
An alpha particle is a helium nucleus, 2 protons and 2 neutrons, loss of an alpha particle give a new element with an atomic number 2 less than the original isotope and an atomic mass that is lower by about 4 amu.
Answer: 43.3 l
Explanation:
1) Chemical equation:
2 Li(s) + 2 H₂O (l) → 2LiOH(aq) + H₂ (g)
2) Mole ratios:
2 mol Li : 2 mol H₂O : 2 mol LiOH : 1 mol H₂
3) Number of moles of Li that react
n = mass in grams / atomic mass = 24.6g / 6.941 g/mol = 3.54 moles
4) Yield
Proportion:
2 mol Li / 1 mol H₂ = 3.54 mol Li/ x
⇒ x = 3.54 mol Li × 1 mol H / 2 mol Li = 1.77 mol H₂
4) Ideal gas equation
PV = nRT ⇒ V = nRT / P
V = 1.77 mol × 0.0821 [atm×l / (mol×K)] × 301 K / 1.01 atm = 43.3 l
V = 43.3 l ← answer
Answer:
Ionic.
Explanation:
Elements with higher electronegativity values are better at attracting electrons in a chemical bond.
- A chemical bond is considered "ionic" if the electronegativity difference between the two bonding atoms is greater than
. - Otherwise, this chemical bond is considered "covalent".
In this example, the difference between the electronegativity of oxygen and lithium is
. Since
, the bond between the two elements would likely be ionic.
It is possible to reach the same conclusion based on the fact that lithium is a metal while oxygen is a nonmetal. When metal elements react with non-metal elements, the product is typically an ionic compound- with ionic bonds between the atoms.
