Between what atoms is a covalent bond most likely to occur calcium and lithium sodium and flourine nitrogen and oxygen helium and argon?

calcium and lithium are both metals and dont form bond with each other. sodium and flourine form ionic compound, sodium fluoride. nitrogen and oxygen form covalent bond in the nitrogen oxides. helium and argon are both nonmetals / noble gases and dont form bond with each other.


What are the practical differences between Lithium batteries and Lithium-ion batteries and is one or the other an eco-hazard?

The biggest differences are that lithium batteries contain lithium metal and are not rechargeable. Lithium ion batteries, however, do not contain lithium metal and can be recharged.The small lithium and lithium ion batteries that are provided an exception to dangerous goods/hazardous materials regulations are used primarily in consumer applications. Small lithium batteries are often used in cameras and watches. Lithium ion batteries are commonly found in cellular phones and laptop computers.Batteries does not have any eco-hazard as long as it is not carelessly dumped with general waste. It can only pose threat to environment as it contains metals like.. lithium, nickel, chromium, iron,etc. and which can leach to groudwater and contaminate soil if not disposed off responsibly.


Which is more reactive lithium in group 1 or neon in group 18?

neon is a noble gas that will not react with anything -- any other element except helium is more reactive than neon! With lithium, quite a reactive metal, it is certainly more reactive than neon.


Why is a lithium ion less reactive than a lithium atom?

Let me start off by saying that the Lithium ion is not less reactive than the Lithium atom. In fact, Li+ is far more reactive than the Lithium atom, which is why it does not exist in its free state. Lithium ions tend to combine with anything it comes into contact with. However, it has a more stable electronic configuration than the Lithium atom, resembling that of a Noble gas(in the case of Li, it is Helium), which is why 1+ is the preferable oxidation state of Lithium.


Why lithium hydride is more stable than other alkali hydrides?

Lithium hydride is more stable than other alkali hydrides because lithium is both lighter and harder than other alkali hydrides.

Why doesn't lithium react with helium?

in a fusion reaction Li6 and Li7 when hit by a neutron split into tritium and helium. the tritium can then fuse with deuterium to make more helium.

What are all the gases in a protostar?

Mostly hydrogen (with some helium, deuterium, and lithium). Other elements (all other elements) are added as the date of formation of the protostar comes closer to the current date.


Is helium gas cold?

Helium gas can be hot, cold, or anything in between, just like most other substances.


How was tin created in the big bang?

It wasn't. Right after the Big Bang, there was only hydrogen (including deuterium), helium, and minute amounts of lithium. Apart from that, all the so-called metals - i.e., elements other than hydrogen or helium - were created in supernovae.


What is the sun purely made of?

"Purely"? Nothing is "pure". The Sun's mass is about 70% hydrogen, about 28% helium, and with a smattering of "trace" elements such as lithium, carbon, oxygen, and every other element.

What is big bang necleosynthesis?

Nucleosynthesis. It refers to the formation of atoms larger than Helium-1. Because of the extreme conditions right after the Big Bang, it is believed that some Deuterium and Helium were formed, perhaps some Lithium too; but no significant amounts of other metals. (In Astronomy, a metal is any element heavier than Helium.)
