Lithium has one available electron in the outer (valence) shell (2s¹).
1s² 2s¹
Answer:
gold is metal which is a very good conductor for electric current and most chips are made out of it.
Answer:
K₃P
Explanation:
potassium is a +1 charge and phosphorous is a -3 charge, so you put a subscript to balance the ionic compound
