A lithium salt used in lubricating grease has the formula LiCnH2n + 1O2. The salt is soluble in water to the extent of0.036 g per 100 g of water at 25 °C. The osmotic pressure of this solution is found to be 57.1 torr. Assuming that molality and molarity in such a dilute solution are the same and that the lithium salt is completely dissociated in the solution, determine an appropriate value of n in the formula for the salt.
