Answer:
572 g
Explanation:
Molar mass is the mass of 1 mol of an element or compound
molar mass of Li₂SO₄ is the sum of the products of the molar masses of the elements by the number of atoms in the compound
molar masses of each element making up lithium sulphate
Li - 7 g/mol
S - 32 g/mol
O - 16 g/mol
molar mass of Li₂SO₄ - (7 g/mol x 2) + ( 32 g/mol x 1) + ( 16 g/mol x 4 )
molar mass = 110 g/mol
mass of 1 mol of Li₂SO₄ is 110 g
therefore mass of 5.2 mol of Li₂SO₄ is - 110 g/mol x 5.2 mol = 572 g
mass is 572 g
Explanation:
Significant figure is the measure of how accurately something can be measured. It carries meaning contributing to its measurement resolution. It is important to use proper number of significant figures to get a precise measurement. For example, if we use a meter stick then measurements like 0.874 meters, or 0.900 meters, are good because they indicate that we can measure to the nearest millimeter. Whereas a measurement like 0.8 does not tell that a meter stick can measure to the nearest millimeter.
