Question:
The mineral petalite was discovered by José Bonifácio de Andrada e Silva at Utö Mines. Petalite has the chemical formula XAlSi4O10 where X is an alkali metal. From 1g of petalite, Arfwedson received 0.96g SiO2 + Al2O3. After the addition of H2SO4, Arfwedson received 0.147 g of X2SO4. Use the atomic weights of Na (23), Li (7), S (32) and O (16) and Arfwedson's measurements to calculate the mass of X2O in petalite if X is i) Na and ii) Li.
