Answer:

It will lose 1 electron

Its charge will be 1+, or simply (+)

Explanation:

Lithium it's located in the group one of the periodic table, the Alkali, and by rule, all Alkali are always gonna loose one electron during a chemical reaction to form a positive ion.

The charge is explained by the fact that, if lithium looses one electron, then it wi have less number of electrons than protons, meaning that, if there's a higher number of protons (positive charge), then the charge will be positive. And since the atom loosed one electron then its charge will be 1+

For example, during a chemical reaction calcium is always gonna loose 2 electrons, so its charge's gonna be Ca2+

Organisms in an ecosystem are interdependent. do you think humans have interdependent relationships with other organisms? explai
jeka94

Humans have an interdependent relationship with other organisms just like organisms in an ecosystem are interdependent.

<h3>How are organisms interdependent?</h3>

To be interdependent means that the involved parties are mutually dependent i.e. they are reliant on one another.

Living organisms in their natural habitat are dependent on one another for food, space, mate and other resources.

However, humans are also interdependent on other organisms for resources like food, raw materials. For example, we eat plant and flesh derived from other organisms.
