What elements does lithium resemble (in terms of electrons) when it loses 1 electron?

tigry1 [53]

Answer:

Li atoms readily give up one electron to form positively charged, Li+ ions. These ions have the same stable electron configuration as the noble gas helium. All Group 1 atoms can lose one electron to form positively charged ions.

When a solution of 0.1 M Mg(NO3)2 was mixed with a limited amount of aqueous ammonia, a light white, wispy solid was observed, i

<u>Answer:</u> The net ionic equation is written below.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Net ionic equation of any reaction does not include any spectator ions.

Spectator ions are defined as the ions which does not get involved in a chemical equation. They are found on both the sides of the chemical reaction when it is present in ionic form.

The chemical equation for the reaction of magnesium nitrate and aqueous ammonia (ammonium hydroxide) is given as:

$Mg(NO_3)_2(aq.)+2NH_4OH(aq.)\rightarrow Mg(OH)_2(s)+2NH_4NO_3(aq.)$

A white precipitate of magnesium hydroxide is formed in the above reaction.

Ionic form of the above equation follows:

$Mg^{2+}(aq.)+2NO_3^-(aq.)+2NH_4^+(aq.)+2OH^-(aq.)\rightarrow Mg(OH)_2(s)+2NH_4^+(aq.)+2NO_3^-(aq.)$

As, ammonium and nitrate ions are present on both the sides of the reaction. Thus, it will not be present in the net ionic equation and are spectator ions.

The net ionic equation for the above reaction follows:

$Mg^{2+}(aq.)+2OH^-(aq.)\rightarrow Mg(OH)_2(s)$

Hence, the net ionic equation is written above.

Describe a method to calculate the average atomic mass of the sample in the previous question using only the atomic masses of li

alexira [117]

Answer:

Explanation:

To calculate their average atomic masses which is otherwise known as the relative atomic mass, we simply multiply the given abundances of the atoms and the given atomic masses.

The abundace is the proportion or percentage or fraction by which each of the isotopes of an element occurs in nature.

This can be expressed below:

RAM = Σmₙαₙ

where mₙ is the mass of isotope n

αₙ is the abundance of isotope n

for this problem:

RAM of Li = m₆α₆ + m₇α₇

m₆ is mass of isotope Li-6

α₆ is the abundance of isotope Li-6

m₇ is mass of isotope Li-7

α₇ is the abundance of isotope Li-7

What is the total number of valence electrons in the dot structure of CBr4? Explain how you determined this answer. What is the

Mnenie [13.5K]

Answer:- There are 32 valence electrons and it's tetrahedral in shape.

Explanations:- Atomic number of carbon is 6 and it's electron configuration is $1s^22s^22p^2$ . It has 4 electrons in the outer most shell means it has 4 valence electrons.

Atomic number of Br is 35 and it's electron configuration is $1s^22s^22p^63s^23p^64s^23d^1^04p^5$ . It has 7 electrons in the outer most shell(2 in 4s and 5 in 4p) .

There is one C and four Br in the given compound. So, total number of valence electrons = 4+4(7) = 4+28 = 32

Four Br atoms are bonded to the central carbon atom and also there isn't any lone pair present on carbon. It makes it tetrahedral.
