How is a lithium atom (Li) different from a lithium ion (Li+)

HEELLP PLEASEE!!! I GIVE 30 POINTTS + MARK BRAINLIEST!!

24. <span>Valence electrons are most loosely held by the atom and are involved in chemical reactions. Chemical reactions occur when valence electrons are shared between atoms. The number of valence electrons determines how these reactions take place and what kind of bonds they form.

25 </span><span>Sodium has one valence electron and chlorine has seven valence electrons. The Ione valence electron from sodium is lost and is transferred to the chlorine atom. The result is a sodium ion with a charge of 1+ and a chloride ion with a charge of 1-. The oppositely charged ions attract each other and the charges balance to make a compound that is electrically neutral.

26. </span><span>Ionic compounds have high melting points and high boiling points compared to molecular compounds. Ionic compounds that are dissolved in water or melted will conduct electricity. Molecular compounds do not conduct electricity in either case.

27. </span><span>A covalent bond is formed when two atoms share valence electrons. Neither atom loses electrons or takes electrons from the other. No charged particles form. In an ionic bond, one or more electrons are transferred from one atom to another. Atoms that lose electrons become positively charged ions, and atoms that gain electrons become negatively charged ions. These oppositely charged particles then attract each other.

28. </span><span>A metal crystal consists of positively charged metal ions embedded in a "sea" of loosely held valence electrons that can move around easily. Heat travels through materials as the increased motion of the particles in the hotter parts of the material is passed along to the particles in the cooler parts. In a metal, since particles are easily set in motion, heat is easily transferred or conducted. The same is true for the conduction of electricity. Electricity can flow when charged particles, such as electrons, are free to move. Since the electrons in a metal crystal can move freely among the atoms, electricity is easily conducted.</span>

How does a sample of hydrogen at 10 °C compare to a sample of hydrogen at 350 K?

Aleks04 [339]

Answer: -

The hydrogen at 10 °C has slower-moving molecules than the sample at 350 K.

Explanation: -

Temperature of the hydrogen gas first sample = 10 °C.

Temperature in kelvin scale of the first sample = 10 + 273 = 283 K

For the second sample, the temperature is 350 K.

Thus we see the second sample of the hydrogen gas more temperature than the first sample.

We know from the kinetic theory of gases that

The kinetic energy of gas molecules increases with the increase in temperature of the gas. The speed of the movement of gas molecules also increase with the increase in kinetic energy.

So higher the temperature of a gas, more is the kinetic energy and more is the movement speed of the gas molecules.

Thus the hydrogen at 10 °C has slower-moving molecules than the sample at 350 K.
