Answer:

The correct answer is option (a).

Explanation:

The molecular formula of lithium carbonate is Li_2CO_3

Percentage of lithium in lithium carbonate = 18.8 %

Molar mass of the lithium carbonate = M

Atomic mass of lithium = 7 g/mol

18.8\%=\frac{2\times 7 g/mol}{M}\times 100

M = 74.46 g\mol

Mass of pure lithium carbonate is twice the mass of first sample:2\times 74.46 g/mol =148.92 g/mol

Percentage of lithium in pure lithium carbonate sample:

\%=\frac{2\times 7 g/mol}{148.92 g/mol}\times 100=9.40\%

The correct answer is option (a).

Answer:

In thermodynamics, the Joule–Thomson effect describes the temperature change of a real gas or liquid when it is forced through a valve or porous plug while keeping it insulated so that no heat is exchanged with the environment. This procedure is called a throttling process or Joule–Thomson process

Conduction happens as energy flows from a warmer object to a cooler object. Which of the following is evidence of conduction?
Dmitrij [34]

Explanation:

Conduction is a form of heat transfer between one body and another. It usually occurs when a warmer object is in contact with a cooler one. Heat generally flows from a region of high temperature to a place at a lower temperature.

  • Conduction is very pronounced in solid bodies.
  • The heat transfer causes a net transfer of the average kinetic energy of one body to the other.
  • Some examples are: heating of iron by a hotter metallic body, the pot hand getting hotter as cooking continues, cooling of ice by touching it.

Why Group 18 elements on the periodic table rarely form compounds
lawyer [7]
Most elements on group 18 are the Noble Gases. They already have a complete last level with 8 electrones. Actually they can form compounds but only on the lab and they will not even last half a second.

A candle slowly burns until the last bit of wax and wick are gone. The two reactants in this chemical reaction are the wick and
Aleonysh [2.5K]

The component of the candle burning in the surrounding has been the oxygen in the air.

The burning of candle wax and wick has been the chemical reaction. It has been based on the reaction of wick with the atmospheric oxygen, resulting in the formulation of the wax burning.

<h3>Chemical reaction of burning of wax</h3>

The wax has been vaporizes by the heat of the flame, that has been resulted by the burning. The wick has been able to react with the oxygen and form the byproducts that helps in flame burning.

The end products have been wick and oxygen as the wax has been consumed in the reaction. The air in the surrounding has oxygen as the part of the system, as it has been involved in the reaction.
