Which atom has higher shielding effect Li or Na?

Na have higher shielding effect than Li *According to my chemistry book


Why Na has higher shielding effect than Li?

The reduction in the force of attraction between the nucleus and the valance electrons by the electrons present in the inner subshells is called shielding effect.As you move from top to bottom in a group number of electronic shells increase so the number of electrons in the inner shells also increases. As a result shielding effct increases.Therefore Na will have higher shielding effect than Li as it comes after Li in the group.


How do you write a positive Li atom and a negative Ci atom?

Li+ and Cl-


Why is KCl ionic while LiCl you scovalent?

Li is small atom and thus have comparatively compactly arranged electrons.. It seizes the Cl atom to take away its electron...thus it have covalent bond rather than ionic.. K is bigger in size..have weak nuclear attraction...screening and shielding effect is more in K,..therefore can form gud ionic bonds.... ok dear..


Which is donate electron for LI and CL?

Li atom donates one electron to a Cl atom when Li+Cl- is to be formed as ionic compound (salt):Li --> e- + Li+Cl + e- --> Cl--------------- +Li + Cl --> LiCl (or Li+Cl-)


What atom that has 3 protons?

Lithium(Li)


When a lithium atom forms a Li plus ion the lithium atom does what?

The lithium atom lose an electron.


What would you expect to have a spectrum most nearly like that of the H atom and why Li Li or Li2?

the answer will be Li2+ ion because it has one electron as in the case of hydrogen atom.


Compare the stability of a lithium atom with that of its ion Li plus?

Li+ means that the atom lost an electron. And this means it has now has a complete outershell, thus being more stable than the Lithium atom with 1 valence electron


Compare the stability of a lithium atom with that of its ion Li plus .?

Li+ means that the atom lost an electron. And this means it has now has a complete outershell, thus being more stable than the Lithium atom with 1 valence electron


What type of bond will form between a gold Au atom and a lithium Li atom?

a metallic bond


From which orbital in a lithium atom is an electron transferred to form Li ion?

From the second s orbital: Li(1s2, 2s1) --> Li+(1s2, 2s0) + 1e-
