Answer:

Nuclear fusion is a kind of nuclear reaction in which two lighter nuclei combine under suitable conditions to form heavier nuclei under suitable conditions. A lot of energy is released in this process.

Potassium thiocyanate, KSCN, is often used to detect the presence of Fe3+ ions in solution through the formation of the red Fe(H

Natalija [7]

Answer:

Ferric ions left in the solution at equilibrium is $8.0\times 10^{-6} M$ .

Explanation:

Moles of ferric nitrate in 0.700 L = n

Volume of the solution = V = 0.700 L

Molarity of ferric nitrate = M = 0.00150 M

$n=M\times V=0.00150 M\times 0.700 L=0.00105 mol$

Moles of potassium thiocyanate in 0.700 L = n'

Volume of the potassium thiocyanate solution = V' = 0.700 L

Molarity of potassium thiocyanate = M' = 0.200 M

$n'=M'\times V'=0.200 M\times 0.700 L=0.140 mol$

Molarity of ferric ions after mixing :

1 mol of ferric nitrate gives 1 mol of ferric ions.Then 0.00105 mol ferric nitrate will :

Moles of ferric ions = 0.00105 mol

$M_1=\frac{0.00105 mol}{0.700 L+0.700 L}=0.00075 M$

Molarity of thiocyanate ions after mixing :

1 mol of potassium thiocyanate gives 1 mol of thiocyanate ions.Then 0.140 mol potassium thiocyanate will give:

Moles of thiocyanate ions = 0.140 mol

$M_2=\frac{0.140 mol}{0.700 L+0.700 L}=0.1 M$

Complex equation:

$Fe^{3+}+SCN^-\rightleftharpoons [Fe(SCN)]^{2+}$

0.00075 M 0.1 M 0

At equilibrium:

(0.00075 M -x) (0.1 M-x) x

The formation constant of the given complex = $K_f=8.9\times 10^2$

$K_f=\frac{[[Fe(SCN)]^{2+}]}{[[Fe^{3+}]][SCN^{-}]}$

$8.9\times 10^2=\frac{x}{(0.00075 M -x)\times (0.1 M-x)}$

Solving for x:

x = 0.000742 M

Ferric ions left in the solution at equilibrium :

= (0.00075 M -x) = (0.00075 M - 0.000742 M)= $8.0\times 10^{-6} M$

What type of substance is gravel

allsm [11]

Answer:

When substances do not mix thoroughly and evenly (like sand and gravel), the mixture is said to be heterogeneous. A heterogeneous mixture consists of visibly different substances. Another example of a mixture is salt dissolved in water.

Hope it helps!

Define significant figure. Discuss the importance of using the proper number of significant figures in measurements and calculat

anastassius [24]

Explanation:

Significant figure is the measure of how accurately something can be measured. It carries meaning contributing to its measurement resolution. It is important to use proper number of significant figures to get a precise measurement. For example, if we use a meter stick then measurements like 0.874 meters, or 0.900 meters, are good because they indicate that we can measure to the nearest millimeter. Whereas a measurement like 0.8 does not tell that a meter stick can measure to the nearest millimeter.
