Predict the products for the following set of reactants. Li(s) + H₂O(l) $\to$ A) Li⁺(aq) + H₂(g) + O₂(g) B) Li⁺(aq) + H₂(g) + OH^-(aq) C) LiH(s) + O₂(g) D) Li⁺(aq) + H₂O₂(aq) E) LiOH(aq) + H₂O₂(aq)

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Lithium reacts with water to form lithium hydroxide and hydrogen gas. The reaction is exothermic and produces a lot of heat. The balanced chemical equation for the reaction is:2Li(s) + 2H₂O(l) → 2LiOH(aq) + H₂(g)

Predict the Products for the Following Set of Reactants →\to→ A) Li+(aq) + H2(g) + O2(g) B) Li+(aq) + H2(g)

Predict the Products for the Following Set of Reactants $\to$ A) Li⁺(aq) + H₂(g) + O₂(g)
B) Li⁺(aq) + H₂(g)
