Question

Solid lithium hydride reacts with water to form aqueous lithium hydroxide and hydrogen gas. When this equation is written and balanced, the coefficient of lithium hydride is?

Answer 1

Answer:

The coefficient of LiH is 1 (non written)

Explanation:

The equation is this:

LiH (s)  +  H₂O (l) → LiOH (aq)  +  H₂ (g)

Ratio is 1:1 between reactants and products.

The coefficient of LiH is 1

Answer 2

Li2O(s)+H2O(l)→2LiOH(aq)
