An electron has a negative charge. When an atom loses an electron, it becomes a positive ion.
When an atom of lithium loses an electron and becomes an ion, it has one less electron shell, so its radius is smaller than the radius of the atom.
The answer is 3.
Answer:
valence electrons are the electrons that are located in the outermost electron shell of an element. Knowing how to find the number of valence electrons in a particular atom is an important skill for chemists because this information determines the kinds of chemical bonds that it can form and, therefore, the element's reactivity
Explanation:
An aqueous solution of potassium sulfate exhibits colligative properties. Colligative properties are properties that depends on the concentration of a substance in a solution. These properties are freezing point depression, vapor pressure lowering, osmotic pressure and boiling point elevation. For this problem we use the concept of freezing point depression since we are given the freezing point of the solution. Freezing point depression is as:
ΔT = -k(f) x m x i
-2.24 - 0 = -1.86 x m x 3
<span>m = 0.4014
Thus, the molality of the solution is 0.4014.</span>
I don't know the answer to long I just want points so plz like and thank me jk the answer is 12H2o
