The lithum cation is small and therefore highly polarising.(Fajans rules) Lithium chloride is relatively low melting and unlike any of the other group1 metal chlorides forms hydrates. Lithium salts often exhibit covalent characteristics. The bonding is ionic with some covalent character.

Where the standard deviation is not applicable?

When the sample size is small


What does it means if the standard deviation is large?

that you have a large variance in the population and/or your sample size is too small


Does the standard deviation of x decrease in magnitude as the size of the sample gets smaller?

No. But a small sample will be a less accurate predictor of the standard deviation of the population due to its size. Another way of saying this: Small samples have more variability of results, sometimes estimates are too high and other times too low. As the sample size gets larger, there's a better chance that your sample will be close to the actual standard deviation of the population.


Why is lithium hydroxide and lithium carbonate the least soluble hydroxide and carbonate among group1 metal hydroxides and carbonates?

Lithium hydroxide and carbonate are the least soluble among group 1 metal hydroxides and carbonates because of the small size of the lithium ion. This small size leads to higher lattice energies, making it more difficult for water molecules to break the ionic bonds and dissolve the compounds. Additionally, lithium ions have a high charge density, which further stabilizes the solid state of lithium hydroxide and carbonate.


How you use the word deviation in a sentence?

When a sample size is too small, a single big deviation from the other samples can significantly affect their average. My mom is not a spontaneous person, so any unforeseeable deviation from her planned schedule makes her nervous, even panicky.


When to use z or t-distribution?

If the sample size is large (>30) or the population standard deviation is known, we use the z-distribution.If the sample sie is small and the population standard deviation is unknown, we use the t-distribution


How much lithium in a lithium battery?

This will depend on both the type and size of the lithium battery. Also some lithium battery types actually contain metallic lithium sheets while others the lithium is only in the form of ions.


What is the relationship between the relative size of the starndard deviation and the kurtosis of a distribution?

It is inversely proportional; a larger standard deviation produces a small kurtosis (smaller peak, more spread out data) and a smaller standard deviation produces a larger kurtosis (larger peak, data more centrally located).


Why lithium do not form acetylide but sodium form acetylide?

Lithium's small size and high charge density make it more likely to form stable ionic compounds rather than covalent compounds like acetylides. Sodium, with a larger size and lower charge density, is more likely to form covalent bonds, allowing it to form acetylides.

Why lithium halides do not obey radius ratio rule?

Lithium halides, such as LiCl and LiF, do not always follow the radius ratio rule because lithium is a very small cation with a high charge density, making it energetically favorable for it to form ionic bonds with larger anions. The small size of lithium allows it to form stable ionic bonds with halide ions despite not meeting the ideal radius ratio.
