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).

Why does the pink color, which forms at the point where NaOH comes into contact with the solution (HCl) in the flask, disappear
Novay_Z [31]
Answer is: because pH value of solution is changing.
Balanced chemical reaction: NaOH(aq) + HCl(aq) → NaCl(aq) + H₂O(l).
pH of sodium hydroxide solution is above seven (basic), when solution of hydrochloric acid is added, pH slowly dropping until it became neutral solution (pH is equal seven) and that is endpoint of titration.
