Answer: Li_2O

Explanation:

For formation of a neutral ionic compound, the charges on cation and anion must be balanced. The cation is formed by loss of electrons by metals and anions are formed by gain of electrons by non metals.  

Here Lithium is an element with atomic number of 3. Thus can lose one electron to attain stable configuration. Oxygen is an element with atomic number of 8 and thus can gain 2 electrons to attain stable configuration.

Li:3:1s^22s^1

Li^{2+}:2:1s^2

O:8:1s^22s^22p^4

O^{2-}:10:1s^22s^22p^6

Lithium having an oxidation state of +1 and oxide with oxidation state of -2 combine to form neutral Li_2O.

Water is capable of dissolving a variety of different substances, which is why it is such a good solvent. it is often called the
Tema [17]

Water is often referred as a <span>universal solvent </span>because it is capable dissolving much more solutes as compared to any other solvent.  This is because, water is a high polar molecule. In water, H has partial positive charge while O has partial negative charge. 


Due to this, water favors dissociation of molecules into positively and negatively charged ions. Positively charge ions gets attracted  towards oxygen i.e. negatively charges, while negatively charged ions get attracted towards positive end of water molecule. 


However, it is worth nothing that, despite water being referred as universal solvent, many compounds are insoluble or partially soluble in water. For instance, most of the hydroxide displays poor solubility in water.

Which of the substances in the chart has the least density?
3241004551 [841]
Answer:
            Option-D (Piece of Wood) is the correct answer.

Explanation:
                   Density is related to mass and volume as,

                             Density  =  Mass / Volume
For Wood,
                             Density  =  42.5 / 50

                             Density  =  0.85

You can calculate remaining densities by yourself. Among all the density of Piece of Wood is the least.

A 25.0 mL sample of H3PO4 requires 50.0 mL of 1.50 M NaOH for complete neutralization. What is the molarity of the acid?
Kamila [148]

Answer:

The molarity of acid is 3 M.

Explanation:

Given data:

Volume of H₃PO₄ = 25 mL

Volume of NaOH = 50 mL

Molarity of NaOH = 1.50 M

Molarity of  H₃PO₄ = ?

Solution:

Formula:

M₁V₁  =  M₂V₂

M₁ = M₂V₂ / V₁

M₁ = 1.50 M ×50 mL / 25 mL

M₁ = 75 M. mL / 25 mL

M₁ = 3 M

The molarity of acid is 3 M.

Selah is making a mobile of an atom of beryllium to hang from the ceiling in her science class. She uses a clear plastic bag for
mel-nik [20]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

The question is incomplete because the images of the models are absent. However, i will try to give you a general description of what the correct answer should be.

Beryllium is a member of group 2 in the periodic table. Beryllium has an atomic number of 4. This implies that it has four protons in its nucleus and four electrons in its shells. In a neutral atom, the number of electrons on the shells is equal to the number of protons in the nucleus.

The electronic configuration of Beryllium is 1s2 2s2. This implies that it should have two shells each containing only two electrons each.

Since we are using white foam balls for protons and black foam balls for neutrons, the clear plastic will contain four white foam balls and five  black foam balls since the mass number of beryllium is 9 and number of neutrons = mass number - number of protons.

Four blue foam balls hanging from strings will represent the electrons around the nucleus.

Any model that corresponds to the description above is the correct answer.
