For the element Lithium give the number of bonds it would like to form with other atoms. A)1
B)2
C)3

A) 1

Explanation:

Lithium is the third element of the periodic table with atomic number of 3. The atomic number is equal to the number of electrons for a neutral atom and thus there are 3 electrons in Lithium.

The electronic configuration of Lithium (Li) is . Thus it can gain one electron to complete its octet and attain stability. Thus it can form one bond with other atoms.

Example: Lithium can form one bond with flourine to form LiF by losing one electron to form .

i had this on my unit activity, i can you if you are a plato student. are you a plato student?

in the given question, the partial pressure is calculated by using the ideal gas equation, that is, pv = nrt

here, p is pressure, v is volume = 25 l, n is number of moles = 0.0104 moles, r is gas constant = -0.0821 l.atm / mol.k

t is temperature = 273 k

p = nrt / v

p = (0.0104 mol × 0.0821 l.atm / mol.k × 273 k) / 25 l

= 0.0093 atm
