Which element forms an ionic compound when it reacts with lithium?
creativ13 [48]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

              Br (Bromine)

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

Li and K,

As the electronegativity difference between Li and K is less than 1.7 therefore, ionic bond cannot form between these two metals.

Li and Fe,

The electronegativity difference is less than 1.7 so neither electron loss nor electron gaining will take place between these two metals. Therefore, there will be no ionic bond between them.

Li and Kr,

As Krypton is a noble gas and does not react due to complete octet hence the formation of KrLi is difficult. However, Krypton can make compounds like KrF₂ e.t.c. Therefore we can skip this option.

For Li and K,

                   E.N of Bromine             =   2.96

                   E.N of Lithium               =   0.98

                                                             ________

                   E.N Difference                     1.98          (Ionic)

This ionic compound is possible and is the correct option because ionic compounds are always made by metals and non metals and here the combination is perfect.

<h3>Conclusion:</h3>

                          Lithium (a metal) and form Ionic bond with Bromine (a non metal)

Why is flameless heating used for heating a solution in hexane or diethyl ether during a recyrstallization?
kkurt [141]

The technique which is used to purify the chemicals is said to be recrystallization.

In this process, solute is dissolved in a particular solvent and according to its principle, the quantity of solute which is dissolved by solvent increases with increase in temperature. The solutes are more soluble at high temperatures in comparison to room temperature (insoluble) or low temperature. Therefore, heating is needed to dissolve the solute in the solvent.

Now, in the case of hexane or diethyl ether, flameless heating is required because of their low boiling points implies if they heat directly on fire, then they have tendency to catch fire. Thus, hexane and diethyl ether are highly flammable.

castortr0y [4]

Answer:

Half-life = 1.21x10⁻⁴ years⁻¹

Explanation:

The kinetics decay of ¹⁴C follows the first order reaction. That means half-life of ¹⁴C is defined as:

Half-life = ln 2 / K

<em>Where K is decay constant.</em>

<em />

As decay constant of ¹⁴C is 5730 years, half-life is:

Half-life = ln 2 / 5730 years

<em>Half-life = 1.21x10⁻⁴ years⁻¹</em>

<em />
