Final answer:
The molality of lithium ions in a 0.302 m solution of LIPO can be calculated using the formula: Molality = moles of solute / mass of solvent.
Step-by-step explanation:
The molality of lithium ions in a 0.302 m solution of LIPO can be calculated by dividing the moles of lithium ions by the mass of the solvent in kilograms. Since the compound dissociates completely, we can assume that one mole of LIPO produces one mole of lithium ions. The formula for molality is:
Molality (m) = moles of solute / mass of solvent (kg)
Given that the molarity of the solution is 0.302 m, we can convert it to moles of solute by multiplying it by the molecular weight of LIPO. The mass of solvent can be calculated by multiplying the volume of the solution by the density of the solvent.
Finally, divide the moles of solute by the mass of solvent to get the molality of lithium ions in the solution.
