Atomic structure of Lithium/ 3D Animation /Class 11 chemistry/ Lithium atom/ class 9
Summary
TLDRThis video script explores the atomic structure of lithium, symbolized as 'La' with an atomic number of three. It details the electron configuration, with two electrons in the K shell and one in the L shell, surrounding the nucleus. The nucleus itself contains three protons and four neutrons, leading to a mass number of seven. The script offers a concise explanation of how the mass number is derived from the sum of protons and neutrons, providing a fundamental understanding of lithium's atomic composition.
Takeaways

Transcripts
in this video we are going to see the
structure of lithium
at symbol of lithium is
La its atomic number is three in this
atom three electrons are revolving
around the
nucleus among the three electrons two
electrons are present in the K shell the
rest of the one electron is present in
the L
shell we know that nucleus consist of
protons and
neutrons in lithium
atom three protons and four neutrons are
present so from this protons and
neutrons we can
calculate mass
number mass number of lithium atom is
equal to number of protons plus number
of neutrons
so 3 + 4 is = 7 this is the mass number
of lithium atom
