What is the gram formula mass of Li2SO4?

A) 101.2487 B) 109.9446
C) 111.2687 D) 106.5871
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 109.9446

Explanation:

The term gram formula mass is synonymous with molecular mass. So, to get this, we must add molar mass of all the elements in this compound.

 

Given compound is Lithium Sulphate - Li2SO4

Elemental calculation ::

Li  -  Lithium   -   6.941    -     2   -   13.88200 %
S  -  Sulfur     -    32.065   -    1   -   32.065 %
O  -  Oxygen   -   15.9994  -    4   -   63.9976 %

Now, total = 12.6264 + 29.1647 + 58.2090 = 109.9446 

 

Hence, the gram formula mass of Li2SO4 = 109.9446.
