Lithium is an element that has an electronic configuration of 2,1. So when forming bonds, it tries to release one of its electrons in the last shell to reach the octet state. Normally when atoms release electrons they get positive charge since the number of protons which bear positive charge, is higher than number of electrons which bear negative charge. So when reaching its octet state, lithium gains positive charge!
Hope this helps! Tbh am not good at explaining. If u have any doubts, ask me!
Answer:
mole
Explanation:
The mole in chemistry is used to represent the amount of any substance. Just like quantifying everyday things like a dozen, score, gross etc, it is a convenient unit of quantity of particles. A mole denotes 6.02 x 10²³particles of a susbstance.
Therefore, a mole is the standard unit(SI) for the amount of isopropyl alcohol in a beaker.
12 % salt is present in 125 g mixture of salt and sand.
Keep in mind that the total percentage is always 100 %
Therefore, if 12 % is the salt, remaining 88 % must be
sand.
a. The amount of mixture is 125 q. Here, 12 % of 125 is
12 * 125 / 100 = 15 g of salt is present in 125 g mixture.
b. The amount of sand can be calculated similarly, 88 %
of 125 g is 88 * 125 / 100 = 110 g of sand is present in
125 g mixture.
Answer:

Explanation:
We already know that the mass number of an atom is the sum of the number of protons and the number of neutrons.
So, the mass number of this isotope is;
Number of protons = 7
Number of neutrons = 8
Mass number = 7 + 8 = 15
Hence, the isotope is;
