Concept explainers
Interpretation:
The missing product for the reaction of solid lithium with aqueous hydrochloric acid to produce hydrogen gas needs to be determined. The reaction must be balanced and the way these toxic substances enter the body must be explained.
Concept introduction:
Lithium is a metal that can displace hydrogen from an acid sample.

Answer to Problem 6E
The missing product is lithium chloride (LiCl).
The balanced equation is given below.
These toxic substances can enter our body through polluted drinking water.
Explanation of Solution
The unbalanced
From the reaction, it can be seen that there are two H atoms on the right side. So, 2 moles of HCl will be required on the left side and 2 moles of LiCl will be produced. To balance the Li atom, 2 moles of Li(s) are required on the left side. Thus, the reaction is balanced.
These toxic substances are highly soluble in water. So, if the drinking water is contaminated with these, these toxic substances might enter our bodies easily.

- You are a Quality Manager for a very well-known food ingredient company that produces umami powder, and you are responsible for setting specification limits. The net weight (in grams) of bags of unami powder is monitored by taking samples of six bags on an hourly basis during production. The label on every bag reports a contents of 1KG umami powder. The process mean is μ = 1012 g, and when the process is properly adjusted, it varies with σ = 11 g. QUESTION: Your organisation strives to ensure that >99.97% of bags of umami powder produced conforms to specification. What performance process index value is required to achieve this process yield?
