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.
Answer: 1 mole of the substance is equal to its molar mass or vice versa.
Explanation: Example: 18 g H2O x 1 mole H2O / 18g H2O = 1 mole H2O
Complete question is;

B) Living things with many cells have always lived on Earth.
C) Simple organisms are found only in young rocks.
D) Geologists study ancient remains of plants and animals.
E) Scientists can figure out what ancient living things ate.

Answer:
A) The fossil record can be used to date rocks
E) Scientists can figure out what ancient living things ate.
F) Pollen and seeds help provide clues about ancient climates
Explanation:
In scientific research, fossils are sometimes referred to as animals and plant. Now, in studying records of fossils, it will be easy to know the length of existence of living things on the Earth. Also, we can be able to identify the manner in which different relationships exists between plants and animals by predicting their lifestyles, location of their habitation e.t.c which can be used to predict the old time climates.
Looking at the options given in relation to the explanation given, options A, E & F are correct
