Answer;

= 0.03791 Liters

Solution and explanation;

-The molar mass of Li3PO4 is 115.79 g/mol.

-If lithium is 6.9 g/mol, multiplied by 3 (from Li3PO4), that would be 20.7 g/mol.

-Now we can use this to find the percentage of Li in Li3PO4, 20.7/115.79 = 0.1788 or 17.88%

-This 17.88% can tell us the mass of Li3PO4 using the mass which 0.284. Now lets divide 0.284 by 0.1788 = 1.589 g. This now the mass of Li3PO4.

-Using that, we can now easily find the moles of Li3PO4,

using the molar mass. So (1.589g)(1mol/115.79g)=0.013723 moles of Li3PO4.

-From this, we can now find the volume using molarity (0.362), which is moles per Liter.

= (0.013723 moles)(1L/0.362mol)=0.03791 L

From the periodic table:
mass of lithium = 6.941 grams
number of moles = mass / molar mass
number of moles of Li = 0.284 / 6.941 = 0.0409 moles

Molarity can be calculated using the following rule:
molarity = number of moles of solute / liters of solution
volume (in liters) = number of moles of solute / molarity
volume = 0.0409 / 0.362 = 0.1129 liters

A piston in a heat engine does 500 joules of work, and 1400 joules of heat are added to the system. Determine the change in inte

san4es73 [151]

Answer : The change in internal energy is, 900 Joules.

Solution : Given,

Heat given to the system = +1400 J

Work done by the system = -500 J

Change in internal energy is equal to the sum of heat energy and work done.

Formula used :

$\Delta U=q+w$

where,

$\Delta U$ = change in internal energy

q = heat energy

w = work done

As per question, heat is added to the system that means, q is positive and work done by the system that means, w is negative.

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get

$\Delta U=(+1400J)+(-500J)=900J$

Therefore, the change in internal energy is 900 J.

The change in internal energy depends on the heat energy and work done. As we will change in the heat energy and work done, then changes will occur in the internal energy. Hence, the energy is conserved.

If ms2 is 40.06% sulfur by mass, what is the identity of the metal m?

musickatia [10]

Answer:

The mass percent refers to the mass of an element in a compound. It is one of the ways of expressing concentration. The mass percent of the solution provides the percentage of the amount of solute present in grams of solution.

The mass percentage of S=40.06 % and the molar mass of S= 32. By applying the formula of mass percent,we can calculate the molar mass of M.

The molar mass of M=159.76-64=95.76

We know that the element of molybdenum has molar mass of 96. Therefore, the element M is <u>Molybdenum.</u>

bonufazy [111]

Answer:

-The stronger electrostatic forces of attraction between the oppositely charged ions causes the Sodium chloride to break apart until it completely dissolves in the water.

Explanation:

-Sodium Chloride has positively charged sodium ions, $Na^+$ and negatively charged chloride ions, $Cl^-$ .

-Water on the other hand has positively charged Hydrogen ions, $H^+$ and negatively charged Oxygen ions, $O^{2-}$ due to the difference in electroneganivity.

-When dissolved in water, the positively charged sodium ions will attract the partially negatively charged oxygen ions. The negatively charged chloride ions will be attracted to the positively charged hydrogen ions in the reaction as below:

$NaCl+H_2O->NaOH+HCL\\\\Na^++Cl^-+H_2O->Na^++(OH)^-+H^++Cl^-$

What is the typical percentage (by mass of elements other than hydrogen and helium in stars that are forming right now in the vi

Ipatiy [6.2K]

Considering mass percentages, stars in the vicinity of the sun contain only 2% other elements by mass. Other than the main components, hydrogen and helium, stars have some heavier elements such as carbon, nitrogen, oxygen and iron. These elements are found near or in the star's core and are ejected into space when the star dies.
