<u>Answer:</u> The volume of oxygen gas released at STP will be 413.28 mL.

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the number of moles, we use the equation:

\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}

Given mass of lithium chlorate = 1.115 g

Molar mass of lithium chlorate = 90.39 g/mol

Putting values in above equation, we get:

\text{Moles of lithium chlorate}=\frac{1.115g}{90.39g/mol}=0.0123mol

At STP:

1 mole of a gas occupies 22.4 L of volume.

So, 0.0123 moles of lithium chlorate will occupy 22.4\times 0.0123=0.27552L of volume.

The chemical reaction for the decomposition of lithium chlorate follows the equation:

2LiClO_3\rightarrow 2LiCl+3O_2

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

(2\times 22.4L) of lithium chlorate produces (3\times 22.4L) of oxygen gas.

So, 0.27552 L of lithium chlorate will produce = \frac{(3\times 22.4)L}{(2\times 22.4)L}\times 0.27552=0.41328L of oxygen gas.

Converting the calculated volume into mililiters, we use the conversion factor:

1 L = 1000 mL

So, 0.41328 L = 0.41328 × 1000 = 413.28 mL

Hence, the volume of oxygen gas released at STP will be 413.28 mL.

dlinn [17]
It should be for the total solution of 93 plus 20 grams which is 113 grams so 93 divided by 113 grams comes to 82.3% sodium sulfate and this can be checked by multiplying 113 grams by 0.823 which results in 93 grams of sodium sulphate.

Atoms of which element have the greatest tendency to gain electrons?
Anastasy [175]
Fluorine. 

Because:- Atoms want to become stable, for an atom to become stable, they need 8 valence electrons. Since Fluorine has 7 valence electrons, it only needs one more electron to become stable and have an octet. An octet is when an atom/element has 8 valence electrons. Since Fluorine will need to gain an electron, it will have a negative charge, and become an anion.

aev [14]

Answer:

a. glucose in water( solution)

b. smoke in air (colloids)

c. carbon dioxide in air (solution)

d. milk( colloids)

Explanation:

A solution is said to be formed when a solute dissolves in a solvent to form a homogeneous mixture. The solute particles are less than 10^-9m in size. Familiar solutions are those where the solute are dissolved in a liquid solvent. When the liquid water, the solution is known as an aqueous solution. A typical example is (glucose in water). In some other cases, the apparent solution of a solute in a solvent is accompanied by a chemical reaction and this is often known as a chemical reaction. A typical example is (carbon dioxide in air).

Colloids are also known as false solutions. Here, the individual solute particles are larger than the particles of the true solution, but not large enough to be seen by the naked eye. When a light beam is placed beside a beaker containing a colloid, the light rays of the beam can be clearly seen. This shows that it exhibits the Tyndall effect while a solution dosent exhibit such.

In a colloid, the liquid solvent is more appropriately know as the DISPERSION medium while the solid solute particles constitute the DISPERSED substance. This can either be solid, liquid or gas.

For example:

--> smoke in air : Dispersion medium is gas while the dispersed substance is solid.

--> milk: Dispersion medium is liquid while the dispersed substance is liquid.

Polished metals have a metallic luster, which means that?
DochEvi [55]
Metallic luster refers to the way light casts off of a mineral. Polished metals such as gold have a metallic luster, which makes them look bright and shiny, and reflect more light than other minerals. There are also minerals that have metallic luster, but are not shiny or reflect much light, which is called dull metallic luster. 

Metallic luster - bright, shiny
Dull metallic luster - not shiny
