The solubility product, ksp of PbBr₂ is 2.102 × 10⁻⁶

<h3>What is solubility?</h3>

The solubility of a solute is defined as the maximum amount of that solute that can be dissolved in a known quantity of solvent at a given temperature.

<h3>What is a solubility product? </h3>

Some salts are sparingly soluble in a solvent. For them, we calculate the solubility product.

It is an equilibrium constant that defines the relationship between a solid and its respective ions in an aqueous solution in equilibrium.

The greater the solubility product, the greater the solubility and vice versa.

Here, the solubility of PbBr₂ = 2.96 g/l

Molar solubility of  PbBr₂ = \frac{2.96}{molar mass of PbBr_2} = 2.96/367 = 8.07 × 10⁻³

At equilibrium,

PbBr_2\rightarrow Pb^{2+} + 2Br^-

1 mole of PbBr2 dissociates into 1 mole of Pb²⁺ ions and 2 moles of Br⁻

Let the molar concentration of Pb²⁺ be x, then the molar concentration of Br⁻ is 2x

Ksp = x.(2x)²

       = 4x³

Substitute, x = 8.07 × 10⁻³

Ksp = 4 (8.07 × 10⁻³)³

      = 2.102 × 10⁻⁶

Thus, The ksp of PbBr₂ is 2.102 × 10⁻⁶

Calculate the average velocity of nitogen molecule at STP<br>​
JulijaS [17]

Answer:

Nitrogen molecule is 28 neuclons×1.67×10-27 kg/nucleon = 4.68 д 10-26 kg. So the average speed of a gas molecule is about 500 m/sec. This is roughly the speed of sound in a gas 340 m/sec. So the average kinetic energy of the gas molecules is related to the temperature of the gas.

What is the number of valence electrons that most atoms prefer?
Nataly_w [17]

Answer: 8 electrons

Explanation: Valence electrons are the electrons in the outermost shell of an atom and they are important in chemical reactions.

Atoms are <em>happy</em> when they follow the octet rule which states that 2 electrons can go in the first shell and 8 electrons can go in the other shells.

Electrons are happy when they have a full outer shell which usually needs to be 8 electrons. However, some of the smaller elements like helium are happy because they can hold a max of 2 electrons and helium has 2 electrons since it has 2 protons in its core as well as 2 electrons in its energy levels.

How many protons and neutrons does Polonium-211 have?​
Stells [14]

Answer:

Protons: 84

Neutrons: 127

Explanation:

The number of protons is the atomic number. The number of neutrons can be found by subtracting the proton number (84) from the isotope number (211)
