What element makes pink fireworks?
The element used to make pink in a firework is CaCO3
How many hydrogen atoms would it take to make a stable compound with oxygen?
For the water molecule (H2O) two hydrogen atoms are needed.
Which comes first in a chemical formula lithium or hydrogen?
Lithium. Lithium and hydrogen combine to make lithium hydride, an ionic compound, in which lithium is the cation (positive) and hydrogen is the anion (negative). The cation is always first in the chemical formula for an ionic compound.
What color does lithium make in fire?
Blue!!
Which element from group 7 is need by lithium to make Colgate and why?
fluoride is used with lithium
How many electrons are needed in the outer energy level to make H stable?
Only 1 electron needed to make H stable.
Is lithium an atom or an ion?
If you just say lithium, it's probable you are referring to an atom. Lithium however can form an ion, Li+ (where the + should be a superscript). Without knowing the context it is not possible to give a definitive answer.
What is the oxidation number of Li?
The oxidation number for Li, or Lithium, is Li+1. Lithium is in the first family on the Periodic Table. Since the element wants to become stable, and it only it needs 8 valence electrons. So therefore, it has to lose an electron. Losing an electron will make it a positive oxidation number.
How many grams of lithium nitrate will be needed to make 250 grams of lithium sulfate?
Answer=408.47 250Li2SO4/109.89Li2SO4/2x4x89.774 4LiNO3
What are the things made from lithium?
A quantity of the pure element lithium is just that, lithium. It is not made of any other chemical elements.
What elements make up lithium and nitrate?
Lithium is an element itself, it is simply Li. Nitrate is Nitrogen and Oxygen, the -ate ending denoting an oxide ion!
What element is needed for most living things and is needed to make most fuels burn?
That is the element, "Oxygen".
How do you prevent a unstable salt from oxidising?
You must make it stable if it is unstable it will oxidise by definition. You would have to add another element to make the compound stable but you would then be changing it to a stable salt.
Which element is used to make modern batteries?
Some batteries need lithium some just have alkali
What element is used to make batteries enamels dyes and its carbonate form is used in a drug to treat depression?
Lithium
The element that is needed to make hemoglobin for oxygen transport?
