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.


What is the equation to show the formation of an ion of lithium from its atom?

Correct answer:LiLiYour response:Li+Correct answer:Your response:Correct answer:Li+Li^+^Your response:Li++Correct answer:e-e^-^Your response:e+


Is Li a cation or an anion?

Li ( lithium) is an ATOM. However, when it ionises (loses) an electron it becomes the Lithium ion (Li^(+)). Positive ions are collectively named as CATIONS. Negative ions are collectively named as ANIONS. NB An atom is an UNcharged species of any element. When it becomes a charged species, then it is an ION. Cation(+) & Anion(-) .


What is the oxidation number of Li2?

The oxidation number of Li in Li2 is +1. Each Li atom has an oxidation number of +1 in ionic compounds.


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..

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

Li+ and Cl-


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-)


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-

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


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

THe lithoium atom has IONISED ( lost) an electron, to become the lithium ION.


How many atoms in LI OH?

I'm pretty sure there are 3 atoms because in Li2o, there are 2 atoms in lithium and 1 atom in oxygen.


A lithium ion is different than a lithium atom because it?

The Li ion is different from the atom because it has positive charge. (Lithium is group 1 element and these lose 1 electron to form for example :Li+ , Na+ etc)


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

The valence electron in a lithium atom is in orbital 2s. To form a lithium cation, this electron is transferred to some more electronegative atom.


What was lithiums atomis number?

Li is atom number three, not only 'was' but it still is and ever will be.
