Answer: Beryllium ion (Be+)

Explanation:

Addition of one proton to Li would lead to formation of Beryllium ion since Beryllium contains 4 protons and 4 electrons to counter the charges and make the element neutral. But in this case, Be+ is formed to show a deficit of one electron (e-).

<h2>Answer:</h2>

Beryllium ion.

<h2>Explanation:</h2>
  • Adding one proton to an atom of lithium which have 3 protons, 4 neutrons and 3 electrons will form a beryllium ion.
  • The new atom formed after adding a proton will have 4 protons and 4 neutrons since to have a mass number of 9 then it has to form an ion.
  • Beryllium is of gray colour, strong, light-weight, and used as hardening agent in different alloys. It has one of the highest m.p(melting point) in the light metals.

Result: On adding a proton in lithium will form a beryllium ion.

Describe the nuclear model of the atom
gulaghasi [49]
An atom consist of mainly two parts, namely nucleus and electrons. In the nucleus, there are groups of protons and neutron DENSELY packed, each element has its own atomic number(number of protons) but can have different no. of neutron (isotop). within the proton and neutron, there are subatomic particles called quarks. Talking about the electrons, they move very quickly arround the nucleus and there are different energy level for electron to switch between. In chemical reaction, we are only concerning the no. of valence electrons.
