The correct answer is: 520 J, 495 J
Number of moles = weightingm atomicweight
Number of moles Li =71000×7=10-3
Number of moles of Na =231000×23×=10-3
Amount of energy = moles × energy needed for 1 mole.
So, the amounts of energies required for 10-3 mole each of Li and Na are 520 kJ ×10-3 or 520 J and 495 J respectively.
