For C, they would be the same. At the equivalence, you have equal moles of both the acid and the base.
Answer:
C. the boiling point of water
Explanation:
B is correct because boiling point only usually differs among the same substance when pressure changes. So say you take one solution onto a mountain top and another at sea level, the boiling point will not be the same, but here we assume they are in the same place so it won't.
A cannot be because the containers are all different shapes (and we aren't talking about like molecular shape of water from what I assume, we mean macroscopically, so that can't be).
B cannot be because we have 4 different temperatures.
D cannot be because we have 4 different temperatures, and therefore different amounts of steam will be released per minute as not all the waters have reached boiling.
Answer:
185.05 g.
Explanation
Firstly, It is considered as a stichiometry problem.
From the balanced equation: 2LiCl → 2Li + Cl₂
It is clear that the stichiometry shows that 2.0 moles of LiCl is decomposed to give 2.0 moles of Li metal and 1.0 moles of Cl₂, which means that the molar ratio of LiCl : Li is (1.0 : 1.0) ratio.
We must convert the grams of Li metal (30.3 g) to moles (n = mass/atomic mass), atomic mass of Li = 6.941 g/mole.
n = (30.3 g) / (6.941 g/mole) = 4.365 moles.
Now, we can get the number of moles of LiCl that is needed to produce 4.365 moles of Li metal.
Using cross multiplication:
2.0 moles of LiCl → 2.0 moles of Li, from the stichiometry of the balanced equation.
??? moles of LiCl → 4.365 moles of Li.
The number of moles of LiCl that will produce 4.365 moles of Li (30.3 g) is (2.0 x 4.365 / 2.0) = 4.365 moles.
Finally, we should convert the number of moles of LiCl into grams (n = mass/molar mass).
Molar mass of LiCl = 42.394 g/mole.
mass = n x molar mass = (4.365 x 42.394) = 185.05 g.
