Lithium is an element that has an electronic configuration of 2,1. So when forming bonds, it tries to release one of its electrons in the last shell to reach the octet state. Normally when atoms release electrons they get positive charge since the number of protons which bear positive charge, is higher than number of electrons which bear negative charge. So when reaching its octet state, lithium gains positive charge!
Hope this helps! Tbh am not good at explaining. If u have any doubts, ask me!
The question is incomplete, the complete question is
Which is NOT correct for when the silver and vanadium half-cells are connected via a salt bridge and a potentiometer? Ag^+ + 1 e^- rightarrow Ag Edegree = 0.7993 V V^2+ + 2e^- right arrow V E degree =-1.125 V Ag+ is reduced V is oxidized 1.924 V V2^+ is reduced Ag is oxidized I and II III, IV, and V I, II, and III III only IV and V
Answer:
only IV and V
Explanation:
If we look at the values of reduction potential for the two species, we will discover that vanadium has a negative reduction potential indicating its tendency towards oxidation.
On the other hand, solve has a positive reduction potential indicating a tendency towards reduction.
This implies that vanadium must be oxidized and silver reduced and not the not her way ground? Hence the answer above.
To identify minerals
Each material chemical makeup are a variety of chemical compounds which has each own category. They have different functional groups which helps people identify which material they look for. For instance, hydroxyl group has chemical makeup of alcohol
