Solid lithium metal and diatomic nitrogen gas react spontaneously to form a solid product. Give the balanced chemical equation (including phases) that describes this reaction.

6 Li(s) + N₂(g) → 2 Li₃N(s)

Explanation:

Solid lithium metal and diatomic nitrogen gas react spontaneously to form a solid product (lithium nitride). The chemical equation is:

Li(s) + N₂(g) → Li₃N(s)

Since the atomicities in the product are odd, the easiest way to balance the equation is by first multiplying it by 2.

Li(s) + N₂(g) → 2 Li₃N(s)

The final (balanced) equation is:

6 Li(s) + N₂(g) → 2 Li₃N(s)

120,630,890

step-by-step explanation:

110+10=120,620+10=630,880+10=890

each chemical family is represented as a group or column on the periodic table. based on chemical properties, there are 6 types of chemical families. group 1 represents alkali metals, group 2 represents alkaline earth metals, groups 3 to 12 represent transition metals, groups 13 to 16 represent non-metals and other metals, group 17 represents halogens and group 18 represents noble gases.
