What happens to a Lithium atom for it to become an Li+1 ion?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Maru [420]2 years ago
5 0

Answer:

If an atom gains or loses an electron, it bacomes an ion. An atom that gains a negative electron, it becomes a negative ion. If it loses an electron it becomes a positive ion

Explanation:

A lithium atom has 3 protons and 3 electrons. It can lose one of its electrons, making it an ion. It now has more positive protons than electrons so it has an overall positive charge. Therefore it is a positive ion.

A fluorine atom will tend to gain, rather than lose, an electron. By gaining a negative electron, it has an overall negative charge. It has become a negative ion.

Olegator [25]

Answer:

Left hand side:-

Carbon - 12

HYdrogen - 28

Oxygen - 38

Right hand side:-

Carbon - 12

Hydrogen - 28

Oxygen - 38

Since, the number of atoms each side are equal, the reaction is balanced.

Explanation:

The given reaction is:-

2C_6H_{14}_{(l)}+19O_2_{(g)}\rightarrow 12CO_2_{(g)}+14H_2O_{(g)}

Left hand side:-

Carbon - 12

HYdrogen - 28

Oxygen - 38

Right hand side:-

Carbon - 12

Hydrogen - 28

Oxygen - 38

<u>Since, the number of atoms each side are equal, the reaction is balanced.</u>

A stock solution of sodium sulfate NaSO4 has a concentrate of 1.00 m. The volume of this solution is 50 ml. What volume of 0.25
mylen [45]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

200 mL

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

Concept tested: Dilution formula

We are given;

  • Concentration of stock solution as 1.00 M
  • Volume of the stock solution as 50 mL
  • Molarity of the dilute solution as 0.25 M

We are required to calculate the volume of diluted solution;

  • The stock solution is the original solution before dilution while diluted solution is the solution after dilution.
  • Using the dilution formula we can determine the volume of diluted solution;

M1V1 = M2V2

Rearranging the formula;

V2 = M1V1 ÷ M2

     = (1.00 M × 50 mL) ÷ 0.25 M

     = 200 mL

Therefore, a volume of 200mL of 0.25 M solution could be made from the stock solution.

The specific heat of aluminum is 0.214 cal/g.oC. Determine the energy, in calories, necessary to raise the temperature of a 55.5
Natasha2012 [34]
For this problem, we use the formula for sensible heat which is written below:

Q= mCpΔT
where Q is the energy
Cp is the specific heat capacity
ΔT is the temperature difference

Q = (55.5 g)(<span>0.214 cal/g</span>·°C)(48.6°C- 23°C)
<em>Q = 304.05 cal</em>
