Based on the electron configuration of the two atoms, predict the ratio of metal cationic (+) atom

to nonmetal anionic (-) atom in the compound.

Lithium 1s²2s1

Nitrogen 1s22s22p3

3:1

Explanation:

Lithium is a group 1 element. This means it would donate one electron to form the cation.

Nitrogen on the other hand is a group 5 element. It would accept 3 electrons to form the anion.

This means there has to be three lithium atoms, each donating an electron each to the nitrogen atom for a compound to be formed.

The formular for the ionic compound would be given as;

Li₃N

Hence the ration is 3:1

answer: the primary difference between a hypothesis and a theory is that b hypothesis is falsifiable, but a theory has been proven to be correct. theory is an explanation of something that is happening but hypothesis is a guess of something that can happen

explanation:

the ideal gas law equation is as follows

pv = nrt

where p - pressure

v - volume

n - number of moles

r - universal gas constant

t - temperature

so if the pressure, volume and temperature are already known

we are left with n and r

since r is the universal gas constant that has a known fixed value then r too is known

so we are left with 'n'

once we know temperature volume and pressure

we can find the number of moles of gas present using the ideal gas law equation
