What volume (in mL) of 3.2 M hydrobromic acid is required to entirely dissolve 19.4 g of lithium metal?

69.7 mL ≅ 70 mL

Explanation:

The chemical reaction between hydrobromic acid (HBr) and lithium metal (Li) produces lithium bromide (LiBr) and hydrogen (H₂) according to the following equation:

2HBr(aq) + 2Li(s) → 2LiBr(aq) + H₂(g)

Thus, 2 moles of HBr reacts with 2 moles of Li. So, the stoichiometric ratio is 1:1 (1 mol HBr reacts with 1 mol Li).

We convert the mass of Li to moles by using the molar mass (MM) of LiBr:

MM(LiBr) = 6.9 g/mol + 79.9 g/mol = 86.8 g/mol

moles of Li(s) = mass/MM(LiBr) = 19.4 g/86.8 g/mol = 0.223 moles Li(s)

Now, we can divide the moles of Li into the molarity of the HBr solution to obtain the volume in liters wee need to add:

V = moles Li(s)/M = (0.223 mol)/(3.2 mol/L) = 0.0697 L

0.0697 L x 1000 mL/1 L = 69.7 mL ≅ 70 mL

Therefore, 70 mL of 3.2 M HBr are needed to entirely dissolve the metal.

because u need two or more forms of the same element that contain equal numbers of protons but different numbers of neutrons in their nuclei to form isotopes.

so since they all have the same shape? i mean maybe because m& m and reeses are both chocolates
