Answer:

11482 ppt of Li

Explanation:

The lithium is extracted by precipitation with B(C₆H₄)₄. That means moles of Lithium = Moles B(C₆H₄)₄. Now, 1 mole of B(C₆H₄)₄ produce the liberation of 4 moles of EDTA. The reaction of EDTA with Mg²⁺ is 1:1. Thus, mass of lithium ion is:

<em>Moles Mg²⁺:</em>

0.02964L * (0.05581mol / L) = 0.00165 moles Mg²⁺ = moles EDTA

<em>Moles B(C₆H₄)₄ = Moles Lithium:</em>

0.00165 moles EDTA * (1mol B(C₆H₄)₄ / 4mol EDTA) = 4.1355x10⁻⁴ mol B(C₆H₄)₄ = Moles Lithium

That means mass of lithium is (Molar mass Li=6.941g/mol):

4.1355x10⁻⁴ moles Lithium * (6.941g/mol) = 0.00287g. In μg:

0.00287g * (1000000μg / g) = 2870μg of Li

As ppt is μg of solute / Liter of solution, ppt of the solution is:

2870μg of Li / 0.250L =

salantis [7]

<h2>Answer:</h2>

1.58 × 10∧16 pools.

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

Given:

Length of ice berg= 98 miles = 1557716 meters

Width of iceberg = 25 miles = 40233.6 meters

Thickness of iceberg = 750 ft = 230 meters

Volume of water in a swimming pool = 24,000 gallons = 90850 liters

The volume of the ice berg:

Volume = Length . width . thickness

Volume = 1557716 . 40233.6 . 230 = 1,441, 468, 016, 5248 m3 = 1,441, 468, 016, 5248 × 10 ∧3 L.

1 pool contains liters of water: 90850 liters

1,441, 468, 016, 5248 × 10 ∧3 liters contains = 1/90850 . 1,441, 468, 016, 524.8 × 10 ∧3 .

= 1.100 . 1,441, 468, 016, 5248 × 10 ∧3 L.

= 1.58 × 10∧16 pools.

Hence 1.6 × 10∧16 pools will be filled with that chunk of ice.

A metal oxide with the formula mo contains 15.44% oxygen. in the box below, type the symbol for the element represented by m.

lana66690 [7]

<u>Answer:</u> The element represented by M is Strontium.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Let us consider the molar mass of metal be 'x'.

The molar mass of MO will be = Molar mass of oxygen + Molar mass of metal = (16 + x)g/mol

It is given in the question that 15.44% of oxygen is present in metal oxide. So, the equation becomes:

$\frac{15.44}{100}\times (x+16)=16g/mol\\\\(x+16)=\frac{16g/mol\times 100}{15.44}\\\\x=(103.626-16)g/mol\\\\x=87.62g/mol$

The metal atom having molar mass as 87.62/mol is Strontium.

Hence, the element represented by M is Strontium.

If a particular ore contains 55.4 % calcium phosphate, what minimum mass of the ore must be processed to obtain 1.00 kg of phosp

gizmo_the_mogwai [7]

The ore contains 55.4% calcium phosphate (related to the mineral apatite) so the amount of Ca3(PO4)2 is 55.4%x=1000g so x=1000/0.554= 1.805kg. Now for the % of P in this amount of calcium phosphate, use all the masses of the elements in Ca3PO4= Ca=40.078 x 3= 120.23 and (PO4)2= (30.974+64)2=189.95 (NB oxygen is 16 mass x 4 =64) so the total mass is 310.2 and we have 61.95 of P (Pmass x 2) so 61.95/3102.= 0.19 or 19% P. So of the 1.805 x 0.19= 0.34kg of phosphorus.

Why does silver iodide have a higher melting point than vanillin

MAVERICK [17]

AgI has a higher melting point than vanillin because it is an ionic compound. The bonds are held more tightly together than in vanillin because it is a covalent compound. Ionic bonds have a higher melting point because the electrons are being transferred from one atom to the other.
