Reactivity of Group 1 and 2 elements increases as you go down the periodic table. So sodium is more reactive than lithium. Sodium will react with oxygen forming Na2O (sodium oxide). Lithium forms lithium oxide (Li2O).
Answer is: 2. can dissolve.
Ionic compounds separates into particles (ions) in water because of their ionic bond.
For example sodium chloride is ionic compound and strong electrolyte and dissociates in water on hydrated sodium cations and chlorine anions:
NaCl(aq) → Na⁺(aq) + Cl⁻(aq).
Ionic bond is the electrostatic attraction between oppositely charged ions (cations and anions).
The atomic structure of the atom contains 9 positively charged particles (protons) and 10 neutrally charged particles (neutrons) in the center of the atom in a clump called the nucleus. Those 9 negatively charged particles (electrons) are moving around outside of the nucleus.
There are 10 neutral charges, because the mass of 19 comes from the number of neutral charges plus the number of positive charges.
To calculate the number of neutral charges, subtract the positive charges from the mass (19 - 9), and you get the number of neutral charges (10).
