Lithium is in the first column of the periodic table and thus can only form one bond with another atom (its ion is Li+)
Oxygen can form two bonds (as in the dioxygen O2).
Hence if you conbine Li and O it has to be Li2O.
<span>Anthracite is also referred to as hard coal because it is so hard and pure. It is very hard and highly compacted with variety of coal that has submetallic luster. It has highest carbon content, the lowest impurities, and highest density of energy of all the coal deposits.</span>
The liquid to solid process using the particle theory is as below
- The process that involve change of liquid to solid is known as Freezing
- It involve change from a high energy state to lower energy
- The constant temperature at which a liquid change to solid by giving out heat energy is called freezing point of the liquid
- when liquid are cooled the thermal energy of particles decrease.
- The cohesive forces between the particles strengthen to such extent that particles can have relative motion with each other and they occupy the fixed position, thus liquid is converted to solid
Question:
What occurs to the atoms of reactants in a chemical reaction?
Answer:
In a chemical reaction, the atoms and molecules that interact with each other are called reactants. ... No new atoms are created, and no atoms are destroyed. In a chemical reaction, reactants contact each other, bonds between atoms in the reactants are broken, and atoms rearrange and form new bonds to make the products.
