we are asked in this problem to determine the mass of a liquid in a small container. In order to determine the mass, we use an analytical balance for greater accuracy by first weighing the whole system (liquid+beaker). Then transfer the liquid to another container and completely dry the beaker (wash and dry). measure the weight of the beaker. The mass of the liquid is equal to the mass of the system minus the mass of the beaker.
Answer:
+5
Explanation:
The oxidation number of phosphorus can be obtained as follows:
H4P2O7 = 0
4(+1) + 2P + 7(—2) = 0
4 + 2P —14 = 0
Collect like terms
2P = 14 — 4
2P = 10
Divide both side by 2
P = 10/2
P = +5
The oxidation number of phosphorus is +5
Answer:
The density of Lithium β is 0.5798 g/cm³
Explanation:
For a face centered cubic (FCC) structure, there are total number of 4 atoms in the unit cell.
we need to calculate the mass of these atoms because density is mass per unit volume.
Atomic mass of Lithium is 6.94 g/mol
Then we calculate the mass of four atoms;

⇒next, we estimate the volume of the unit cell in cubic centimeter
given the edge length or lattice constant a = 0.43nm
a = 0.43nm = 0.43 X 10⁻⁹ m = 0.43 X 10⁻⁹ X 10² cm = 4.3 X 10⁻⁸cm
Volume of the unit cell = a³ = (4.3 X 10⁻⁸cm)³ = 7.9507 X 10⁻²³ cm³
⇒Finally, we calculate the density of Lithium β
Density = mass/volume
Density = (4.6097 X 10⁻²³ g)/(7.9507 X 10⁻²³ cm³)
Density = 0.5798 g/cm³
