Write the overall equation for the reaction occurring in lithium battery?

Chemistry
1 answer:
lisov135 [29]4 years ago
6 0

Answer:

In the chemical industry, lithium-based batteries are working most efficiently and replacing nickel-cadmium batteries. To study a redox reaction in a lithium battery let's take the example of Lithium Cobalt Oxide(LiCoO2).

Following is the overall reaction taking place in Lithium Cobalt Oxide battery. Reduction and oxidation takes place at Cathode and Anode respectively. that is why it is called a redox reaction.

Reaction at cathode:

Cathode: CoO2+Li+e−→ LiCoO2 (Reduction)

Reaction at Anode:

Anode: LiC6→ C6+Li++e− (Oxidation)

Overall reaction:  

LiC6 + CoO2→ C6 + LiCoO2

Explain the differences among nonpolar covalent bonds, polar covalent bonds, and ionic bonds.
docker41 [41]
Nonpolar covalent bonds are a type of chemical bond where 2 atoms share electrons with each other.
Polar covalent bonds are the same as nonpolar covalent bonds, but a pair of electrons are unequally shared between 2 atoms. 
Ionic bonds are a type of linkage formed from the electrostatic attraction between oppositely charged ions in a chemical compound.

Hope this helps! ^-^

What makes the element named iron (fe) different from the element named nickel (ni)?
Sphinxa [80]
<span>The chemical properties of elements is determined by the electron shell configurations of each element. Different electron shell configuration = different chemical properties. And the number of electrons that an element has is determined by the number of protons the element has in it's nucleus. Iron has 26 protons, so a neutral atom of iron will have 26 electrons, while nickle has 28 protons, therefore when neutral will have 28 electrons. And since they have differing numbers of electrons, their electron shells differ and therefore their chemical properties differ.</span>

Imagine a solution containing only water, sodium, and glucose. if a voltage is applied to the solution, glucose would move
andrew-mc [135]

There would be no net movement of glucose

The given statement is wrong. Glucose solutions are not electrolytes and therefore do not conduct electricity.

Is sodium chloride a good conductor of electricity? Simply by dissolving or dissolving it in water, it cannot conduct electricity as a solid.

Saline contains Na+ and Cl- ions. If ions are present in the solution, these ions can move through the solution and carry an electric current. Pure water and sugar solutions do not contain significant ions. Sugar molecules do not break down into ions when dissolved.

When glucose is added to water, it dissolves readily but does not dissociate into ions. Therefore, a glucose solution is not an electrolyte and is not a conductor of electricity.

Substances that dissolve in water to form a conductive solution are called electrolytes. Substances that dissolve in non-conductive solutions are called non-electrolytes. All soluble ionic compounds are electrolytes.

How does the jet stream help move storms across North America?
Lostsunrise [7]
Storms are made from a combination of warm evaporated heat that falls back down near sunset, some fo the jet streams curve for hundreds of miles one of them curves from NA to Antarctica and all the way back in a huge belt, the storm once caught in a jet stream will go where ever the jet stream goes, and a good bit lead across NA.

I hope this helps
