What is the ion symbol for Lithium?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Bond [772]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Lithium is an alkali metal. The symbol for lithium element is ‘Li’. It belongs to group 1 of periodic table. Its electronic configuration is 1s2 2s1. It has one valence electron. So it loses one electron to attain stable configuration. Hence the symbol for lithium ion is ‘Li+’.

Explanation:

ithium is a chemical element with the symbol Li and atomic number 3. It is a soft, silvery-white alkali metal. Under standard conditions, it is the lightest metal and the lightest solid element. Like all alkali metals, lithium is highly reactive and flammable, and must be stored in mineral oil. When cut, it exhibits a metallic luster, but moist air corrodes it quickly to a dull silvery gray, then black tarnish. It never occurs freely in nature, but only in compounds, such as pegmatitic minerals, which were once the main source of lithium. Due to its solubility as an ion, it is present in ocean water and is commonly obtained from brines. Lithium metal is isolated electrolytically from a mixture of lithium chloride and potassium chloride.

1 - x = 0.3 => x = 1 - 0.3 = 0.7


[NH3] = [HCl] = 0.7/0.5 liter = 1.4                (I used 0.500 dm^3 = 0.5 liter)


4) Equilibrium equation:


Kc = [NH3] [HCl] = (1.4)^2  = 1.96


Which is the number that you were looking for.


Answer: Kc = 1.96

Anomalous data shows on a graph as a
KiRa [710]
Anomalous data on a graph would show up as say a very high or very low value which does not fit in with the normal values which may be background values.If it was a straight line graph then the anomalous point would plot well above or below the line or if it was a bar graph ie a histogram it would be much higher or lower than the surrounding data. In mineral exploration, anomalies are looked for in say geophysics or geochemistry data values for high or low magnetism or conductivity or high chemical values indicating the presence of valuable minerals at that point.
