When 150 mg of lithium is added to 350 cm3 of water at 20 ∘C20\text{ }^\circ\text{C}20 ∘C under a pressure of 100 kPa, a reaction occurs producing a gas.
Write a balanced molecular equation for the reaction that occurs.
Calculate the volume, in cm3\text{cm}^3cm3, of the gas formed. (The gas constant R=8.31 J K−1 mol−1R = 8.31\text{ J K}^{-1}\text{ mol}^{-1}R=8.31 J K−1 mol−1, relative atomic mass Ar(Li)=6.9A_r(\text{Li}) = 6.9Ar(Li)=6.9)
Calculate the concentration, in mol dm−3\text{mol dm}^{-3}mol dm−3, of lithium ions in the resulting solution.
