6. The mass number and atomic number of the lithium atom are shown by the symbol 3 7 Li. What is the
correct symbol for the lithium-ion in lithium chloride?
A) 2 6 Li-
B) 3 6 Li+
C) 3 7 Li+
D) 3 7 Li- - ANSWER C) 3 7 Li+
7. Which substance has a polar covalent bond between its atoms?
A) NaH
B) NaCl
C) F2
D) NH3 - ANSWER NH3
8. Which of following changes will increase rate of reaction for CH4 + Br2 = CH3Br + Hbr
A) increasing the concentration of Br2
B) decreasing the concentration of CH4
C) increasing the concentration of HBr
D) decreasing the temperature - ANSWER A) increasing the concentration of Br2
9. Which of the metals does not react with diluted H2SO4?
A) Cu
B) Ni
, C) Mg
