What is LiOH?
LiOH is the formula for Lithium hydroxide it is an alkali, and therefore a base.
How many outer-levels electrons do lithium and potassium have?
Lithium and potassium have only one valence electron each. A valence electron is an unpaired electron available for bonding with other elements. Since lithium and potassium have only one valence electron each, they are pretty stable elements that don't do a lot of bonding.
What is the chemical formula for lithium oxide?
Li2O.Li2O is the formula of lithium oxide.
What would it be called if a lithium atom had 2 electrons?
the answer in a chemistry test is always A!
How is the periodic table used to determine the number of electrons available for bonding?
The number of the vertical column- or group- that the particular element is in indicates the number of valence electrons available for bonding. For example, Lithium has one valence electron, whereas oxygen has six.
How many valence electrons does lithium (Li) have available for bonding?
Lithium have available for bonding one electron.
Fluorine has a higher electronegativity than Lithium What does this actually mean?
electronegativity is the tendency of an atom to attract a bonding pair of electrons, therefore fluorine is more able to attract electrons then lithium (has a greater pull).
What happens in terms of electrons when lithium reacts with oxygen?
Oxygen is more electronegative than lithium, a metal. Oxygen has a tendency to gain two electrons so it will bond with two lithium atoms which have a tendency to donate one valence electron for bonding. Li2O
What type of bonding would be expected between atoms I and F?
Ionic bonding---with such different electronegativities it would be hard for lithium and fluorine to share electrons in a covalent bond. It is far more energetically favorable for the lithium atom to transfer an electron to fluorine to form Li+ and F- and then have those two hook up to form an ionic bond.
What is LiOH?
LiOH is the formula for Lithium hydroxide it is an alkali, and therefore a base.
What is the formula for lithium acetate?
The formula for lithium acetate is LiC2H3O2.
How many outer-levels electrons do lithium and potassium have?
Lithium and potassium have only one valence electron each. A valence electron is an unpaired electron available for bonding with other elements. Since lithium and potassium have only one valence electron each, they are pretty stable elements that don't do a lot of bonding.
What is the chmical formula for lithium?
Li is the formula for lithium.
lithium and sulfur model the ionic bonding?
No
How many electrons and protons lithium have?
The element lithium has 3 protons and 3 electrons.
What would happen lithium bonding with technetium?
I suppose that technetium cannot be bonded with lithium.
What is the chemical formula of lithium dioxide?
LiIAdded:LiI is the formula of lithium iodide, often misspelled as '...iodine'
