Answer:

a. Li with 1 valence electron

Explanation:

For this it is necessary to see the electronegativity of this atoms. The electronegativity is the force or tendency that has an atom to attract electrons, so the atom who has the lower value of electronegativity is the one that will tend to lose rather than gain electrons.

The electronegativity of these atoms is:

Li – 0.98

O – 3.44

F – 3.98

Ne is a noble gas so has no tendency to gain nor lose electrons

3) If an electrical appliance has 150.0 V applied causing a current of 2.34 amps, what is the

eimsori [14]

The resistance of the appliance is 64.1 Ω.

<u>Explanation:</u>

As per the Ohm's law, which states that the electric current is in direct proportion to the voltage and is in inverse proportion to the resistance. It is given by the expression as,

V = IR

Where V is the voltage (V) = 150.0 V

I is the current (amps) = 2.34 amps

R is the resistance (ohm) or Ω = ?

Now we have to rearrange the equation to get the resistance as,

$$R = \frac{V}{I}$

Now we have to plug in the values as,

$$ R = \frac{150}{2.34}$

= 64.1 Ω

So the resistance of the appliance is 64.1 Ω.
