Answer:

Percentage lithium by mass in Lithium carbonate sample = 19.0%

Explanation:

Atomic mass of lithium = 7.0 g; atomic mass of Chlorine = 35.5 g; atomic mass of carbon = 12.0 g; atomic mass of oxygen = 16.0 g

Molar mass of lithium chloride, LiCl = 7 + 35.5 = 42.5 g

Percentage by mass of lithium in LiCl = (7/42.5) * 100% = 16.4 % aproximately 16%

Molar mass of lithium carbonate, Li₂CO₃ = 7 * 2 + 12 + 16 * 3 =74.0 g

Percentage by mass of lithium in Li₂CO₃ = (14/74) * 100% = 18.9 % approximately 19%

Mass of Lithium carbonate sample = 2 * 42.5 = 85.0 g

mass of lithium in 85.0 g Li₂CO₃ = 19% * 85.0 g = 16.15 g

Percentage by mass of lithium in 85.0 g Li₂CO₃ = (16.15/85.0) * 100 % = 19.0%

Percentage lithium by mass in Lithium carbonate sample = 19.0%

Bismuth(III) sulfate is an ionic compound formed from Bi3+ and SO42-. What is the correct way to represent the formula?
Hitman42 [59]

Answer:

Bi2(SO4)3

Explanation:

Bismuth(iii) sulfate is an ionic compound therefore, their is transfer of electron. Ionic compound has both cations and anions. The cations is positively charged ion while the anions is negatively charged ions. The cations loses electron to become positively charged while the anions gains electron to become negatively charged.

From the compound above, Bismuth(iii) sulfate the cations will be Bismuth ion which loses 3 electrons. The anions is the sulfate ion (S04)2- with a -2 charge.

The chemical formula can be computed from the charge configuration as follows

Bi3+  and (SO4)2-

cross multiply the charges living the sign behind to get the chemical formula

Bi2(SO4)3

Note the final chemical formula, the numbers are sub scripted

A multivitamin tablet contains 40 milligrams of potassium. how many moles of potassium does each tablet contain?
katrin2010 [14]
Conversion of mole to grams
k in mole = 1 mole/ atomic mass
K in mole =1/ 39.0983 g/mole
                = 0.255765 g/mole
converting 40 grams of K
 K 40 grams x [ 1 mole/ 39.0983 grams] = 1.0230623 mole
There are 1.0230623 moles of K in 40 K of Potassium

A stack of 10 pennies weighing 26.55 grams is placed in a graduated cylinder containing water. The initial volume of water is 50
BigorU [14]
In order to determine the density of an item, we will need to determine its mass and volume. The standard unit for measuring mass in a lab is the gram. Think about liquids- what units do you typically report the volume of a liquid in? What about for a sugar cube, what volume is the most appropriate?
A regular object like a sugar cube can be measured with a ruler so we might report the volume in centimeters cubed (cm3). An irregular object like the plate pictured below can be measured by using a technique called volume by displacement. A liquid (typically water) is placed in a graduated cylinder and the volume of a liquid is measured. Then the irregular object is placed in the liquid and the volume is measured again. The change in volume is the irregular object’s volume. This measurement is often made using a graduated cylinder and recording a volume in Liters or milliliters (mL).
