Write out the balanced equation for the following word equation. Use the proper state abbreviations for each of the reactants and products as well:

Lithium metal reacts with liquid water to form hydrogen gas and aqueous lithium hydroxide.

The answer to your question is

                2Li(s)  +  2H₂O(l)   ⇒    H₂(g)  +  2LiOH (aq)

Explanation:

Data

Lithium metal = Li(s)

Liquid water = H₂O(l)

Hydrogen gas = H₂(g)

aqueous Lithium hydroxide = LiOH (aq)

Chemical reaction

                   Li(s)  +  H₂O(l)   ⇒    H₂(g)  +  LiOH (aq)

                 Reactants     Elements    Products

answer is: naturally occurring solid, inorganic compound or element is mineral.

minerals usually have crystalline form, that means than crystal constituents (atoms, molecules or ions) are arranged in a highly ordered microscopic structure, forming a crystal lattice that extends in all directions.

for example magnetite is a mineral of iron oxide (fe₂o₃).

calcite is a carbonate mineral and the most stable polymorph of calcium carbonate (caco₃).

dolomite is an   carbonate mineral composed of calcium magnesium carbonate (camg(co₃)₂).
